Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a plunge pool cost?

Pricing for a plunge pool can vary depending on your backyard’s unique conditions, such as soil quality, site access, and any local regulations. Our plunge pools typically start from $40,000, and we can provide a detailed quote after assessing your site to ensure the perfect fit for your space.

What pool shapes do you offer?

We offer a range of custom, precast concrete, and fibreglass plunge pools to suit different spaces and styles. Our custom pools give you the freedom to design a shape that perfectly fits your backyard, while our precast concrete pools provide a faster installation—ready to enjoy in just a few days. If you’re after a low-maintenance option, our fibreglass pools offer durability and quick installation with a smooth, sleek finish.

Can I install an above-ground plunge pool?

Yes, you can! Our plunge pools are designed to be versatile, allowing for fully above-ground, partially in-ground, or completely in-ground installations. No matter your space, we’ll help you achieve the perfect look and functionality for your backyard.

Is a fence required around an above-ground pool?

In most cases, yes. If your above-ground pool is installed 1.2 metres or higher, the pool’s exterior wall might serve as part of the required safety barrier. However, a secure access gate and fencing around the skimmer box are still necessary to comply with safety standards.

How often should I change the water in my plunge pool?

We recommend changing the water every three years to keep it fresh and safe. Regular water testing at your local pool store will help you stay on top of any imbalances, ensuring your pool remains clean and enjoyable for your family.

How long should the pump run each day?

To keep your plunge pool water clean and healthy, we recommend running the pump for around 1.8 hours a day. This helps maintain circulation and ensures your pool stays crystal clear and ready to enjoy.

Do you offer magnesium options?

Yes, we do! Our standard packages come with a magnesium mineral system, providing a gentle and therapeutic swimming experience that’s great for your skin and overall well-being.

 

What should I consider before buying a plunge pool?

When planning for a plunge pool, consider how it will fit into your existing backyard space. Our pools come in a variety of shapes, from round to rectangular or fully customised designs to match your vision. Don’t forget to think about outdoor features like decking or patios to create a stylish and practical setting.

Will I need a crane for installation?

Most of the time, we can install your pool using our crane truck, as long as it can get within one metre of the installation site. If access is limited, we’re happy to discuss alternative solutions to ensure a smooth installation process.

What’s the best surface for my pool base?

To keep your plunge pool safe and stable, we recommend a 100mm thick, level, and well-compacted base. A solid foundation helps prevent cracks or movement, ensuring your pool remains in top shape for years to come. Remember, an uneven base may lead to damage that isn’t covered under warranty.

Can you install pool heating?

Yes, we provide electric heat pumps, which are an excellent option for maintaining a consistent, comfortable pool temperature. They’re energy-efficient and perfect for making the most of your plunge pool, no matter the season.

Can I fill my pool with tank water?

Yes! Our plunge pools are perfectly suited for filling with tank water, offering an environmentally friendly solution. Just ensure your water is properly filtered and balanced for the best swimming experience.

What chemical system is best for a plunge pool?

We provide two effective pool treatment systems. Our magnesium system offers natural, therapeutic benefits, while Crystal Waters keeps your pool free from chlorine, bromine, and unwanted odours. Both options ensure clean and healthy water. Reach out today to explore which suits your lifestyle best.
