A swimming pool, swimming
bath, wading pool, paddling pool, or simply a pool, is a man-made container
filled with water intended for swimming or other water-based recreation. A pool
can be built either above or in-ground, and be constructed from materials such
as concrete (also known as gunite), metal, plastic or fiberglass. Pools can be
decorative or custom shape and size, or they may be standard sizes, the largest
of which is the Olympic-size swimming pool.
Pools that may be used by
many people or by the general public are called public, while pools used
exclusively by a few people or in a home are called private. Many health clubs
such as the YMCA, fitness centers and private clubs have public pools used
mostly for exercise. Many hotels have pools available for their guests.
Educational facilities such as schools and universities occasionally have pools
for swimming or physical education classes, or competitive athletics such as
swim team. Hot tubs and spas are pools with hot water, used for relaxation or
therapy, and are common in homes, hotels, clubs and massage parlors. Swimming
pools are also used for diving and other water sports, as well as for the
training of lifeguards and astronauts. Visit Now Swimtownpools.com
