South Pacific Pool Enclosures

www.poolenclosures.co.nz/

Low Cost/High Impact Indoor Pool Building || Structure Opens for Outdoor Swimming || Proven Aquatic Facility Success || SPASA Sustainable Pool Product GOLD

South Pacific Pool Enclosures are proud to introduce the Pool Enclosure All Weather Swimming Facility concept to aquatic industry leaders at WAVES 2024.

Pool Enclosures convert an existing outdoor seasonal pool into an all-season retractable pool building. Our recommended Pool Enclosure model for commercial venues, public pools, schools and swim schools incorporates an indoor covered pool, indoor covered poolside area, several door access points, windows, and key lock security.

“Pool Enclosures are a low cost, low maintenance indoor swimming facility. Our swim school has grown to a huge roster of private students and six schools and operates seven days a week because we offer excellent indoor conditions and swimming in warm water. We protect our students, staff and spectators from the rain, cold, wind and sunburn.” Sarah Chambers, Director of the Little Makos Swim School.

Pool Enclosure aquatic facilities stay open for business throughout cold, wet and windy months. Over warmer months, or whenever the weather permits, the entire enclosure slides within minutes to the ends of the pool for outdoor summer swimming and poolside fun. A closed Pool Enclosure generates solar energy through its UV treated polycarbonate walls, keeps warm air inside the enclosure and rainwater, vegetation, debris and insects out. The result is a warm, clean pool with much less cost and cleaning.

Massive increases in swimming participation and business income, unlimited days of swimming facility operation and outstanding improvement across swimming ability, water safety skills, health and fitness gains and community access to high quality indoor swimming facilities are just a few things our Pool Enclosure clients have reported.

Come and meet us at our trade booth or visit our website and get in touch to discuss what it takes to convert an existing outdoor swimming pool into a Pool Enclosure facility (Marc Paulik/0274500449).
