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.
Water management options may include:
- Perimeter gutter systems
- Skimmers
- Wall inlets and returns
The circulation method is selected based on pool size, user load, and performance requirements. This flexibility ensures efficient water movement and consistent water quality across different specialty pool configurations.
Comfort, Safety, and Performance Features

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
Installation options include:
- In-ground installations
- On-grade installations
- Elevated and rooftop installations
Natare specialty pool systems can be installed in a variety of settings. Interior finish options may include polished stainless steel, PVC membrane lining systems, or ceramic tile. These options allow specialty pools to meet both functional and aesthetic goals in indoor and outdoor environments.
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.
