The following page describe the options available with a
Fiberglass Endless Pool. Please refer to the price list for all
options pricing.
SHELL COLOR
Our Fiberglass Endless Pool comes standard in white but may
be custom ordered in light blue.
SWIM PACE DISPLAY
Easy to read — even with swim
goggles — the 7" high-visibility
display presents the pace of the
swimmer in minutes:seconds per
100 yards or 100 meters. Perfect
for interval training or to monitor
improvements in swim technique. Simply set the
pace and swim for as long as you like.
HEATER
The electric heater/controller that comes standard with your
Fiberglass Endless Pool can raise the pool water temperature
about 0.5 degrees F per hour. If the pool is covered when not
in use this will always be sufficient to maintain your water
temperature since the circulating pump runs continuously.
Pools aboveground should always be insulated. Once a
well-insulated pool is up to temperature, the heater requires
only a few hours operation per day.
Gas heaters are sometimes selected for outdoor installations,
or when the owner wants a more responsive heating system.
A 50,000 BTU gas heater, either natural gas or propane, can
raise the pool temperature about 1.5 degrees F per hour. Of
course, once warm a well insulated pool will only cool slowly.
A supplementary gas heater is not recommended but may be
used in conjunction with the water quality system provided
by Endless Pools, Inc. Contact your design representative
for further information.
ADDITIONAL DUAL-CONNECTING
HYDRAULIC HOSE
If your power unit is more than 25' from the pool, you will
require longer lengths of hydraulic hose. Hydraulic hoses con-
nect the Swim Unit to the Power Unit. The Power Unit should
be placed on a flat, surface and can be installed indoors or out
up to 75 feet away from the Swim Unit. The Power Unit
requires a 220 volt, 30-amp, GFCI electric service and should be
placed in a sheltered, ventilated location. A minimum 12" air
space must be provided on all sides of the Power Unit. The
Power Unit needs to be accessible. There is no periodic mainte-
nance apart from a filter change every 500 hours of use and an
oil change after 1,000 hours or every 5 years. Nonetheless, the
Power Unit needs to be accessible.
LIGHTS
Two underwater LED lights transform your Fiberglass Endless
Pool in the evening. These low-energy lights are installed on the
front of the pool on either side of the swim unit and plug
directly into the heater/controller. They are turned on and off
using the keypad. While LED lights have a very long life access
must still be maintained to the outside of the pool wall at the
front where they are installed.
HYDROTHERAPY JETS
The hydrotherapy benefits of the Fiberglass Endless Pool swim
current can be supplemented with the addition of four
hydrotherapy jets powered by a separate pump. The optional
jets are ideal for therapy and relaxation, and are installed above
the bench at the rear of the pool. The jets are turned on and
off at the keypad. Since the entire system is designed to operate
on a single 30 amp circuit, the jets do not function while the
swim current is on. This limitation can be overcome simply
by running two 30 amp circuits during installation. Access
must be maintained at the rear of the pool where jets are
installed. The heater/controller provides a purge cycle four
times daily to insure that the water in the pipes remains fresh
and doesn’t freeze.
AQUATIC TREADMILL
Turn your Fiberglass Endless Pool into a complete home gym
with the addition of an Aquatic Treadmill! Use the treadmill
with the current on or off to vary the intensity of your walk
or jog. Designed to vary the speed, you expend as much or as
little effort as desired and still achieve a great cardio workout.
Use the aquatic treadmill to cross-train in the Fiberglass
Endless Pool. Alternate between swimming and walking
or jogging to get a full body workout!
