Got a Question about our swim spas?

Ever wondered "What is the Difference between a 'Single Zone' and a 'Dual Zone' Swim Spa"? or "Can I finance my Swim Spa?" - Here are all the answers you need to make a well informed decision.

Got more questions? Just ask our team.

  • What is a swim spa?

    A swim spa is a compact fitness pool with a powerful current for swimming in place, plus built-in spa seating for hydrotherapy. You get both exercise and relaxation in one, year-round setup.

  • Single-zone vs dual-zone—what’s the difference?

    Single-zone models share one water area and temperature. Dual-zone swim spas have a separate swim area and spa area, each with its own controls and heat settings.

  • What swim jet systems are available?

    We use Focus™ Swim Jets in three setups: Splash with 2 jets, Advanced with 3 jets, and Pro with 4 jets. Each step increases water flow and swim resistance.

  • Which swim jet setup is right for me?

    Choose Splash for gentle swims and family fun, Advanced for regular fitness, and Pro for a powerful current ideal for strong swimmers and intensive training.

  • Can I adjust the current strength?

    Yes—Focus™ Swim Jets have variable speed control, letting you set a gentle flow for recovery or crank it up for serious resistance.

  • What depths are available?

    Most swim spas come in either 1.3 m for easier entry and family use, or 1.5 m for a deeper, more natural swimming stroke.

  • How big are swim spas?

    Sizes vary by model, but most range from around 5–6 m long and 2–2.3 m wide. Always allow extra space for access and a sturdy base.

  • Can I run different temperatures in a dual-zone spa?

    Yes—keep the swim zone cooler for exercise and the spa zone warmer for soaking, or adjust both to suit the season.

  • Can I use the spa jets while swimming?

    Yes—hydrotherapy seats and the swim jets run off separate pumps, so you can have both running at the same time.

  • What temperature range can I set?

    Most swim spas heat anywhere from 10°C for a cool plunge to 40°C for a hot soak—perfect for all-season use.

  • Can a swim spa double as a plunge pool?

    Absolutely. Set a lower temperature in summer and enjoy it as a refreshing pool, then heat it back up for winter

  • What power does a swim spa need?

    Power requirements vary—entry models may need 15–25 amps per zone, while larger Pro models can require 32–45 amps. A licensed electrician can advise for your specific spa.

  • How can I keep running costs down?

    All Alpine Swim Spas use Alpine Insulation™ and come with a lockable Arctic cover. Adding a SpaNet® heat pump can cut heating costs by up to 75%.

  • How is the water kept clean?

    We combine Microban® filtration with Ozone and UV-C sanitisation, reducing chemical use and keeping water clear with minimal effort.

  • Are they noisy to run?

    Not at all. Models with WhisperQuiet™ circulation pumps keep water moving almost silently, even during filtration cycles.

  • What lighting options are there?

    Many models feature Premium StarLight™ LED systems with multiple colours and modes for relaxation, parties, or evening swims.

  • How durable are Alpine Swim Spas?

    They’re built with Lucite® acrylic shells, QuadPlate™ four-layer shell construction, galvanised steel framing, and premium insulation for strength and longevity.

  • Do they include a cover?

    Yes—every swim spa comes with a fully insulated, lockable cover to retain heat and keep debris out.

  • What training aids come with a swim spa?

    Each spa includes a swim tether to help maintain position in the current and improve stroke technique.

  • Can I do more than swim?

    Yes—walk, jog, stretch, or do resistance exercises against the current for a full-body, low-impact workout.

  • How many seats do swim spas have?

    Depending on the model, you’ll find anywhere from 3 to 9 hydrotherapy seats in addition to the swim area.

  • Is smartphone control available?

    Yes—add the optional SmartLink Wi-Fi module to adjust temperature and settings from your phone or smart speaker.

  • What comfort features are included?

    Expect Hurricane™ hydrotherapy jets, ergonomic steps, LED lighting, and in some models, dedicated foot massage jets.

  • How does insulation differ across the range?

    Splash models feature 3-layer Alpine Insulation™, while Advanced and Pro models use 4-layer Alpine Insulation™ for maximum efficiency.

  • How many jets do I need?

    Two jets are great for light exercise, three jets suit most swimmers, and four jets create the strongest current for advanced training.

  • What kind of base does it need?

    A flat, strong surface—such as a reinforced concrete pad—is ideal. It must support the full weight when filled.

  • What warranty is included?

    Most swim spas come with a 10-year structural warranty, 5 years on the acrylic shell, 5 years on the heater & jets, and 2 years on equipment.

  • Do larger models need separate electrical circuits?

    Yes—bigger dual-zone models often require independent circuits for each zone. Your electrician will confirm the exact setup.

  • Do I need lots of chemicals?

    No—the combination of Ozone and UV-C sanitisation reduces chemical needs to small top-ups after heavy use.

  • Can I view one before buying?

    Yes—visit one of our showrooms to see different models, test the seating, and experience the jet systems in person.
