Life in Hawaii seems somehow incomplete without a backyard pool for your home. For many homeowners, however, the lack of backyard space can appear to be a barrier to owning a pool. The expert staff at Captain Cook Pool & Spa in Captain Cook, HI, is happy to say that installing a small pool for your yard is one of their specialties. A family-owned business for almost 30 years, Captain Cook Pool & Spa can meet all your swimming pool construction and maintenance needs for concrete and above-ground pools. There are several small pool options to consider:

• Attach To The Home: Large in-ground pools require access from all sides, including a surrounding deck area that quickly takes up space in a smaller yard. Captain Cook Pool & Spa can install a pool with one side up against the house, fence, or wall, reducing surface area while still allowing for multiple safe entry and exit points.

• Choose An Economical Shape: Not all pools have to be a traditional rectangle or oval shape. Concrete and fiberglass pools come in many shapes, and a freeform design can take advantage of the dimensions of your yard. Let Captain Cook Pool & Spa survey your yard space to determine the best option for your home.
• Spool Your Pool: “Spool” is the term for a small pool that utilizes its small surface area by being a multi-purpose entity. With interior seating and a heating pump attached, Captain Cook Pool & Spa can create both a pool and hot tub. Because they’re small, they don’t require as much heat to keep them warm, making them ideal as all-season pools.
• Exercise Some Creativity: If you want to use your pool as a source of exercise but don’t have the space to swim laps, Captain Cook Pool & Spa can install water jets to create resistance even when swimming in a short space, requiring the same physical energy as swimming regular laps. Installing a tether that holds the swimmer in place during the motion of swimming is another great option.
