9 Garage Pools from Endless Pools® (photos)
How to turn the garage into a year-round, all-season pool house.
Some people use their garages solely to park their car and store the lawnmower. You could use yours to swim, get and stay fit, unwind, and have fun with your family. There are a lot of advantages to focusing your pool planning on the garage.
In less than half of a two-car garage, you can install an Endless Pools Original Series model or Endless Pools Fitness Systems swim spa. It's a wise choice for an underutilized space -- turn your garage into an all-weather pool enclosure with an economical Endless Pools installation.
Advantages of a Garage Pool
A garage pool can be the least expensive option for installing your Endless Pools model. Most garages already have a level concrete floor (and if it's slightly out of level, that can be easily, affordably fixed). An above-ground garage pool could save you money and be up and running the quickest.
Your indoor pool planning could result in a year-round pool season. Your garage is safe from the elements and, depending on its insulation and your climate, relatively comfortable through all four seasons. Imagine a pool season that never ends?
A garage pool is easily accessible from your home, but it's likely less accessible to your children or pets. Of course, Endless Pools offers secure pool covers and swim spa covers and an optional child alarm. You may still find peace of mind with your pool behind locked or difficult-to-lift doors.
Considerations for your Garage Pool
Is your garage heated? Most aren't, and depending on your climate and your garage's construction, it may get chilly in the winter months.
To help conserve your pool's heat and save energy, you can super-insulate the cabinet of any Endless Pools Original Series model. If you're installing an Endless Pools Fitness System, you're in luck: They come with our Tri-Thermic Barrier System as the standard insulation in every swim spa.
An above-ground pool is the quickest installation and requires no excavation. You will either need one of our exterior pool stair options or to build stairs with whatever custom framing material you choose. During your pool planning, be sure to determine your garage's ceiling height relative to your pool depth.
For a deeper pool, you may need to choose a fully or partially in-ground pool design. This type of pool installation will give you greater accessibility and a much better visual for your pool investment.
