A plunge pool is a small pool typically designed for relaxation and cooling off rather than swimming or exercising. It is usually shallower than a regular swimming pool but deeper than a hot tub or spa. Plunge pools are often found in residential settings, particularly in areas with limited space or where the climate is warm. 

There are numerous benefits to having a plunge pool. Firstly, they provide a refreshing and invigorating experience, especially during the hot summer. Plunge pools can help cool down the body quickly, providing relief from the heat. They also offer relaxation and stress relief, as the cold water can have a calming effect on both the mind and body. 

Plunge pools are typically 1m to 1.5m deep, although this can vary depending on personal preference and intended use. The depth allows for full immersion in the water while still being able to touch the bottom. 

Different types of plunge pools are available, including above-ground and in-ground options. Above-ground plunge pools are often made from durable materials such as fibreglass or stainless-steel reinforcements, and there are now many options. Free-standing Pools can be easily installed and relocated if needed, whereas In-ground plunge pools are more permanent structures that require more excavation and construction. 

The cost of installing a plunge pool can vary greatly depending on factors such as size, materials used, additional features, and location. The average cost can range from $16,000 to $75,000 or more. It is recommended to consult with a professional pool builder and licenced builder for an accurate estimate based on individual needs and budget.  

Nordic Plunge Pools has been at the forefront of advancements, especially within the fiberglass swimming pool industry, for over 25 years, so there is no better team to assist with the many challenges complex sites can present.
