Congratulations! You’ve decided to invest in a swim spa. Now the question is: what size should I buy?

This is one of the things many swim spa owners wish they would have asked themselves before purchasing. It’s not all about the space you have available…did you realize the size of swim spa you buy is also about your own height?

In order to get the maximum benefit out of a swim spa exercise routine, you need to have a swim spa long enough to do laps against the right current for your body length. Having a swim spa long enough to get the right resistance when you’re doing your routine is part of the equation to a good workout.

To be on the safe side, plan for a swim spa that is 14’ in length. This will allow all users to have a swim spa long enough for the tallest swimmers in the house, and be more than adequate for those under six feet tall. A swim spa that is 14’ long will ensure taller swimmers have a strong enough current to swim against to get optimum results in a swim session.

Oregon Hot Tub offers two TidalFit Swim Spas in a 14’ length. For those desiring a swim spa that can double as a pool and have just enough flow for a good swim, consider the Champion model. Two strong Dual Badu jets provide strong flow that’s adjustable to customize current strength. It also features 14 additional Helix jets in the seating for a good massage after your wrap up the swim portion of your session.

If you’re over six feet tall and want powerful flow at your command, choose the Exercise model. With the Quad jets, you’ll be able to push yourself to the limit and get optimal benefit from each swim session.

Power, performance, energy efficiency, ease of use, and easy water care are all characteristics of our TidalFit Swim Spas…exactly why they were chosen as Poolandspa.com’s “Best of Class” in the swim spa category.
