Sure, there are pools that look a lot like our iPool® exercise pool and even come with a lower price tag. Average above ground pools need to be bigger as the pool gets deeper to spread the water pressure over a wider area. Even a typical steel frame above ground pool is about sixteen feet long to manage three and a half feet deep of water pressure. When you make the pool a rectangle instead of a circle, then the walls need to be even stronger because water pressure naturally expands as a circle.
Not all of us have a backyard to set up a sixteen foot five thousand gallon pool.
This is what makes the iPool® different. We made a stronger and thicker galvanized steel frame with five layers of river rafting liner that is sturdy enough to handle this type of water pressure with only the surface area of an SUV.
We are big admirers of Endless Pools. An Endless Pool is a very fine product. But it’s expensive.
The standard Endless Pool is made out of a metal tub of steel. Even the Swim Spa is made out of an acrylic shell. We save you on hidden installation fees, a few thousand dollars, and a couple days of assembly by using a simple galvanized steel frame you need only an hour to assemble instead of a solid metal shell.
Then, to bring the price even lower we don’t use a noisy motor or artificial current. We use our patented dual harness system instead. There is no artificial current for you to fight with. You don’t have to feel water slamming into your face, eyes, and nose whenever you want to swim. There’s nothing magical about an artificial current, so why let the pool be your boss?
With the iPool® just turn some knobs to adjust the resistance, close your eyes and swim any stroke you want. You can’t close your eyes and even do backstrokes in an Endless Pool. You can’t adjust the resistance with a simple tether and resistance cord.
Our iPool I offer 45″ of water depth, even deeper than the average 39″ of an Endless Pool. With our dimensions you don’t have to worry about your arms hitting the floor or the walls of the pool. No black boxes, no gimmicks, we just use simple engineering and efficiency to bring the time tested concept of aquatic therapy right to your doorstep.

“We find this pool indispensable now. We love it. Pure and simple so economical and practical where else can you swim for any length of time at any time of day or night in a clean heated swimming pool all to yourself any time you want? Fabulous… I use swim fins and swim gloves and these really enhance my workout.‐ John
“I LOVE MY POOL!!! I am getting great exercise everyday without the joint discomfort and my 2 1/2 year old granddaughter has learned to swim on her own with no floating device. I am very pleased with it!” ‐ Jim R.
“I have the Ipool, and LOVE it! It’s only been set up for a few weeks, but I swim distance several days a week and it’s saved me from the hardcore chlorine at the local pool. Also, my husband hooked it up to our wood boiler and heats it with that. Works great! We were initially looking at Endless Pools and my swim coach told me that tether swimming is much better. Also, put a mirror on the bottom to watch my stroke.” ‐ Steve S.
“I have had my iPool for a year now, and am really excited to use it for the second summer. The service they have provided me is excellent. When I had challenges setting up my pump for the first time, they took the time to explain everything to me over the phone. They are very responsive to both phone and emails and really show their customers that they appreciate them! Great product, great service, great exercise!”— Kelly M.
Our mission from the very outset has been to get the soothing, health-giving properties of warm water to those suffering from pain and mobility issues.
“As a physician with a board certification in four specialties including pain management I am reminded daily of the importance of physical fitness for many reasons not limited to health and longevity as well as stress relief. You have an amazing, cost-effective product that I am happy to endorse and only wish that more people had access to it.”
‐Seth Kaufmann, MD, American Board of Hospice and Palliative Care, American Board of Pain Medicine

Heating Your Pool for Hydrotherapy
To experience the full benefits of aqua therapy, many of our customers choose to add a heater to their pool. The process can be done easily enough but will require a few steps to get started, such as having an electrician install a setup.
What makes Fitmax pools different from other (cheaper) above ground pools?
The Fitmax pool is far more durable than other brands; it is constructed with up to 5 layers of river rafting material which reduces the chance of having a leak. This means that you can leave it set up year round, including in areas that experience freezing. It also is constructed with a galvanized steel frame which allows for it to have a more compact size than other above ground pools.
What is the difference between the Therapy Pool and the Original iPool?
The Therapy pool has a more compact size, and does not come with a swimming harness. It is also 9″ deeper than the iPool.
What is the difference between the Original iPool and the iPool3?
The iPool 3 is deeper than the original iPool allowing a more variety of aquatic therapy exercise to be performed. The iPool I is designed mainly for resistance swimming in a portable small space.
Is the pool saltwater system compatible?
Yes
How do I heat the pool?
Heaters require an electrician to install, you can view heater options after selecting “yes” on if you would like to add a heater or other accessories menu
