Why 2023 is the Year to Get a Plunge Pool?

Summer is just around the corner and before you know it you'll be looking out your window and asking yourself why you don't have a swimming pool. Or, at the very least, a plunge pool.

With a plunge pool in your backyard, you won't have to worry about packing up the car and heading to the beach or public pool. A plunge pool can provide hours of fun and relaxation for your family and friends, and it can also add value to your home. Whether you're looking to cool off in the summer or entertain guests, a plunge pool is a great addition to your home. 

Here are just a few reasons why your home needs a plunge pool:

Increase Your Home's Value

A plunge pool can significantly increase the value of your home, depending on the circumstances. If you're looking to sell your home in the future, a plunge pool can make it more attractive to potential buyers. It shows prospective buyers how much fun they'll have with their kids when they move into your home. In fact, if you live in a hot climate and in a neighbourhood that has many pools, your house could be more difficult to sell without one.

More Swimming

It goes without saying that you'll be using your pool for swimming, but why is that good for you?  Swimming is an excellent form of cardiovascular exercise that people of all ages and abilities can do. It's also a low-impact activity, so it's ideal for people with joint pain or other conditions that prevent them from doing more high-impact activities. Swimming is also a great way to cool off on a hot summer day. If you don't have air conditioning or your electricity bill is too expensive, then you might want to consider getting into the water!

More Sun

Having a pool naturally coincides with spending more time under the sun. And while you should always wear sunscreen, exposing your skin to sunlight can have some benefits. Sunlight exposure helps your body produce vitamin D, which is important for strong bones and a healthy immune system. It can also help improve your mood and give you a boost of energy. Just be sure to limit your time in the sun and always wear sunscreen to protect your skin!

More Fun

A plunge pool is a great way to have some fun and make lasting memories. Whether you're hosting a pool party or just cooling off with your family, a pool is a great place to relax and have fun. If you have kids, they'll love playing games in the water and you'll love spending quality time with them. Plunge pools are also great for entertaining guests. If you like to entertain, there's nothing better than having a barbeque with your friends by the pool.

Less Stress

If you're looking for a way to reduce stress, then consider spending some time by the pool. Whether you're spending more time with your loved ones or just floating around, being in the water can help your body relax. The sound of the water and the feeling of being weightless can help clear your mind and allow you to focus on the present moment.

Improved Sleep

Swimmers who are active during their day often find themselves falling asleep faster at night because they don't have as much energy left over from their busy days. By getting into the habit of exercising before bedtime, you'll be able to fall asleep more quickly and get better rest overall.

It Can Be Small and Inexpensive

If you're tight on space or on a budget, then a plunge pool might be the perfect solution for you. A plunge pool is a small pool that is typically used for cooling off or for cold therapy. Plunge pools can be as shallow as 1.2 meters and are far less expensive to install than traditional pools. They also require very little maintenance. If you enjoy being active, you can easily fill your plunge pool with bags of ice to enjoy the health benefits of cold therapy.

Your Dream Pool

If you're looking for a fun and relaxing way to spend your summer, then consider getting a plunge pool. A plunge pool can provide hours of entertainment for your family and friends, and it can also add value to your home.
