"My pool has not been clear and usable for 2 months inspite of weekly pool service. Mike, with NuWave pools, came on Tues., 6/3 to check out my pool. He immediately diagnosed the problem and took immediate action. Mike installed a new cartridge filter, balanced the chemicals and instructed me on what to do. By Thus., 6/5, I could finally see the drain in the 9.5 ft deep end of the pool. Today, 6/10, the pool is In perfect condition, sparkling blue water. Mike was polite, professional and knowledgeable. He had the tools and materials on his truck to handle all this. The NuWave management team, (Tim & Matthew), was very friendly and cooperative and handled this project quickly and professionally. Thank you Dave Keener"

We were kept well informed as to every stage of work being performed. Every crew showed up and got their job done. The pool was being filled on the 45th day. Amazing job and follow up. If you are looking for a pool, give them a call. I am sure you will be thoroughly impressed."

"I have owned my pool for 15 years and had the same person for 10 years or more but after he retired I found a bunch of pool cleaners worried more about up charging instead of fixing what is creating the up charging , Bass pools quoted me one price and has bent over backwards to make me happy and are still giving me a spotless pool . Sure extra work costs but working to find out the problem is rare . Bass pools is a very good reliable and honest business"

Most spool or cocktail pools take four to 12 weeks from breaking ground to the first swim, although timing varies depending on size, type, and site conditions. An above-ground, vinyl-lined model can be installed within three or four days once the kit arrives, whereas an in-ground spool adds excavation, plumbing, and inspection steps that extend the timeline. Because delivery alone can take a few weeks, lining up permits and any necessary digging or grading work during that window helps keep the project moving.
Cocktail pools are not intended for traditional swimming; they are built to deliver a cooling and relaxing experience. They provide an ideal setting for a refreshing dip rather than for exercise or lap swimming. The pool’s limited dimensions restrict vigorous activity and ensure safety, making it a perfect retreat for quick cool-downs and leisurely soaks in a compact, stylish design.
Spool pools have a depth of 38 to 42 inches, which is ideal for sitting, standing, and gentle dipping. This deliberate depth prioritizes safety and an inviting atmosphere while eliminating the possibility of diving or extended swimming. The measured design creates a secure and intimate space for relaxation, adding a refined touch to your outdoor area.
If you're handy and have experience with excavation, plumbing, and electrical work, consider installing your spool pool yourself. However, hiring a professional ensures the job is done safely and correctly. Pros have the expertise to handle all the technical details, giving you peace of mind and helping you avoid costly mistakes.
Maintaining a spool pool demands regular cleaning, precise chemical balancing, and thorough system inspections. Homeowners should allocate time monthly for filter cleaning and water quality checks, in addition to performing seasonal maintenance, to ensure optimal system performance. Ongoing maintenance preserves water clarity and operational efficiency, reduces repair costs, and extends the pool’s lifespan, creating a safe and enjoyable environment.
Popular upgrades include a brick-paver patio for slip-resistant footing, low-voltage lighting for evening swims, and code-compliant fencing to boost safety. Additionally, consider adding landscaping or a fire pit to transform the pool area into a year-round hangout. Each feature raises overall costs, but thoughtful add-ons improve usability, curb appeal, and, in many markets, resale value.
