The Only Pool Company with our Exclusive Swim-Safe Circulation System

One of the benefits of a pool from the swimming pool installers at Swim Inc is our exclusive Swim-Safe Circulation System. You will not find this feature from any other pool company. While Swim Inc offers many things that make us special, the Swim-Safe system is one that we are most proud of. We love to share information about this with new customers.

The Swim-Safe Circulation System is essentially a drainless pool. While you can drain your pool, our system eliminates bottom drains. These can be an entrapment hazard for young children. Our unique system takes advantage of more surface skimmers to keep the system working as intended. Your water stays clean and you rid your pool of the drain entrapment hazard. This is a win-win scenario that will keep your family safe and help you feel more confident.
