adapted to your space
Solutions that fit
From built-in pools to compact spas or swim spas, each project can be adapted to the terrain, available access, intended use and budget.
Which solution do you need?
The choice between a pool, spa or swim spa depends on the available space, intended use and user profile. In Tenerife, it is also important to consider whether the installation is for a private home, holiday rental, hotel or even a spa facility. It is important to distinguish between private and shared use.

Key factors before installing
Before installing a pool, spa or swim spa in Tenerife, it is important to analyse different technical and structural aspects that will affect both the feasibility of the project and its long-term maintenance and user experience.
Available Space
Define the size, circulation around the equipment and technical area.
Access and crane delivery
Access, transport, manoeuvering and equipment entry must be checked.
Structural load
On terraces or rooftops, it is essential to check the load-bearing capacity before installation.
Electricity and drainage
The electrical installation, protection systems and water drainage must be planned from the outset.
Technical area
Pumps, filtration and maintenance require an accessible and ventilated space.
Climate and exposure
Sun, wind, humidity and proximity to the sea affect materials and maintenance.
Intended use
A private home does not have the same requirements as a holiday rental with intensive use.
Required construction work
Some solutions require a base, ducting, plumbing or adaptation of the space.
Quick Comparison
Each solution offers different benefits depending on the available space, type of use and the profile of the home or tourist accommodation.

Project Process
Installing a pool, spa or swim spa requires careful planning from the outset. Before choosing a system or starting any work, it is important to define what you want to achieve, check what the space — and, where applicable, regulations — actually allow, and adapt the project so it is viable, comfortable to use and easy to maintain.
- Initial assessment
The intended use, desired experience, available dimensions, access, location, structural constraints, applicable legal requirements and real installation possibilities are analysed. First, what you want to achieve is defined; then, what can be done legally, technically and structurally is assessed.
- Choosing a solution
Once the type of project is clear, the most suitable solution is chosen: pool, spa or swim spa, along with the model, size, configuration, features and finishes that best suit the space, intended use and user profile.
- Planificación técnica
Based on the initial assessment and the selected solution, the necessary technical aspects are prepared: support base, electricity, plumbing, drainage, ventilation, technical area, maintenance access and any possible auxiliary building work.
- Installation
This includes preparing the space, transport, access manoeuvres or crane work where necessary, auxiliary building work, plumbing, electricity, positioning the equipment and connecting the different systems.
- Commissioning
Operation checks, system configuration, connection review, filling, initial water preparation and basic user guidance are carried out before handing over the installation.
- Maintenance and support
Proper maintenance helps preserve water quality, equipment performance and the durability of the installation. It also makes it easier to resolve issues, adjust parameters and extend the system’s service life.
