Custom Specialty

Pool Systems

Natare designs custom stainless steel specialty pool systems that allow these non-traditional concepts to be built with precision and long-term reliability. Each system is engineered to match the functional, structural, and operational needs of the project.

Specialty pools are designed for specific uses that go
beyond traditional lap or recreational swimming.

These pools often support training, wellness, recovery, leisure features, or architectural design goals.

Stainless Steel Construction for Specialized Designs

Specialty pools frequently involve custom shapes, variable depths, and integrated features. Stainless steel construction allows these elements to be incorporated directly into the pool structure.

Benefits of stainless steel construction include:

  • Precise fabrication for complex geometries
  • Stable performance without cracking or settlement
  • Long service life in chemically treated water
  • Consistent watertight integrity

This approach allows specialty pools to maintain their intended performance and appearance over time.

Specialty Pool Applications &
Engineered Water Management Options

Not all specialty pools use the same water management approach. Natare systems can be designed with different circulation methods depending on pool type and use.

Natare designs and builds a wide range of specialty pool systems, including:

  • Counter-swim and resistance pools for fitness and training
  • Plunge pools for wellness and recovery environments
  • Lazy rivers and leisure pools with controlled water movement
  • Compact lap pools for space-constrained locations
  • Custom water feature pools integrated into architectural designs

Each application is engineered to support appropriate circulation, user safety, and operational efficiency.

Specialty pools often require features that enhance comfort and usability while maintaining safe operation.

These elements are engineered as part of the pool system to ensure compatibility, durability, and ease of operation.

Integrated features may include:

  • Built-in benches and seating
  • Steps and recessed entry points
  • Handholds and grab rails
  • Controlled flow zones for training or therapy

Applications

Specialty pools are often introduced as part of facility upgrades or renovations. Natare modular systems allow specialty pools to be added or replaced without extensive structural modification.

For new construction, specialty pool systems are coordinated with architectural and engineering plans to support efficient installation and predictable performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

What qualifies as a specialty pool?
Specialty pools are designed for specific functions such as fitness training, wellness, leisure features, or architectural integration rather than general swimming.
No. Depending on the application, specialty pools may use perimeter gutters, skimmers, or wall inlet systems.
Yes. Natare specialty pool systems are engineered for in-ground, on-grade, and elevated installations, including rooftops and podium decks.
