Multifunctional use and greater efficiency
The usefulness of a movable pool floor has been amply proven in practice. For swimming pool operators, this solution provides immediate benefits: more flexibility, more target groups and more efficient use of the pool. The essence is simple: with one system, you create variable water depths and thus a pool that adapts to the programme of the day.
Variable water depth: from swimming lesson to platform height
A major advantage of a moveable bottom is that it can be adjusted to different heights. This is especially practical in swimming lessons with young children. When pupils get tired, they can easily reach the bottom and stand with their feet, contributing to comfort and safety.
The movable pool floor can also be adjusted to platform height, flush with the pool edge. This position creates a flat, accessible “floor” in the pool. This makes it possible to walk from the platform directly into the pool-a feature that not only provides convenience, but also offers opportunities for target groups and activities outside regular swimming.
- Variable water depth
- Application in therapy
- Creative uses: from sports to events
- Higher efficiency through multifunctional use
Application in therapy and hydrotherapy
In its highest position, the movable floor is very suitable for therapy pools and hydrotherapy. Visitors can then enter the pool with minimal support. In situations with a wheelchair or aids, someone can drive onto the floor from the platform, after which the floor is lowered in a controlled manner to the desired water depth. This requires less physical effort from both user and attendant and supports a safe, comfortable therapy environment.
Creative ideas: events and multifunctional use
Besides sports and instruction, a movable pool floor also offers additional possibilities for events. With the bottom in the highest position, the pool can serve as a venue for, for example:
-diploma ceremonies
-ceremonies and meetings
-judo tournaments, demonstrations or presentations
-fashion shows and other public activities
A frequently asked question is how much weight a movable bottom can support. Due to the considerable buoyancy of the Variopool movable bottom, more than 50 adults can stand on it without difficulty, depending on the situation and set-up.
More activities through smart depth settings
The power of a movable pool floor also lies in setting different depths for a variety of activities. For example:
-circa 10 cm underwater: suitable for games such as water football
-circa 50 cm depth: challenging for aqua workouts, such as aqua-bike
-highest stand: can be used for group lessons, games, presentations and events
In practice, we see operators using this flexibility creatively: from fitness classes and Aqua Zumba to play elements and temporary set-ups for target group activities. Although the movable floor is hardly noticeable in its “neutral” position, its full potential is immediately released as soon as the floor changes in height.
More visitors, better occupancy, higher returns
A multipurpose pool attracts more target groups and uses the pool more efficiently. This often translates into better occupancy rates and a stronger return for the operation. A movable pool floor creates a sustainable solution that grows with demand now and in the future.
