When it comes to transforming your outdoor space into a personal oasis, Plunge Pools Services and Installations by PoolsPlusRI offer a luxurious yet practical solution. Whether you're dealing with limited space, looking for energy-efficient options, or dreaming of a relaxing water feature for your backyard, plunge pools are increasingly becoming a top choice for modern homeowners. In this detailed guide, we explore what plunge pools are, their benefits, installation insights, maintenance tips, and why PoolsPlusRI is the trusted name for plunge pool services in Rhode Island and beyond.
A plunge pool is a small, deep pool designed primarily for lounging, wading, and cooling off, rather than for vigorous swimming. Typically ranging in size from 6 to 13 feet wide and up to 20 feet long, plunge pools are compact enough to fit into smaller yards or urban spaces while still offering the refreshing benefits of a traditional swimming pool.
These pools are often installed with built-in seating, jets for hydrotherapy, and customizable heating options—perfect for relaxation after a long day or even a light workout like aquatic therapy.
Plunge pools are more than just a trendy backyard feature—they're a smart investment for many homeowners. Here are some of the top advantages:
Ideal for small yards or patios, plunge pools provide the luxury of a water feature without needing extensive space. Their compact design also makes them a favorite among urban homeowners.
Compared to full-sized pools, plunge pools require less water, fewer chemicals, and significantly lower energy for heating. This translates into long-term savings and less hassle in maintenance.
With optional heating systems, plunge pools can be enjoyed during both summer and cooler months. Whether it's a refreshing dip in summer or a warm soak in autumn, your plunge pool remains functional year-round.
From built-in seating and jets to LED lighting and modern finishes, plunge pools can be tailored to your design preferences and therapeutic needs.
A plunge pool adds a sleek, contemporary feel to any landscape design. Surrounded by decking, stone, or tile, it becomes a stylish focal point for your outdoor space.
Installing a plunge pool is not a one-size-fits-all project. It requires expert planning, site assessment, and skilled craftsmanship to ensure safety, efficiency, and long-lasting performance. That’s where PoolsPlusRI steps in.
We provide end-to-end Plunge Pools Services and Installations, including:
Every installation starts with a thorough site inspection. Our team evaluates your yard layout, soil condition, plumbing access, and other crucial elements before proposing the ideal plunge pool design.

While plunge pools are lower-maintenance than full-sized pools, regular upkeep still matters. Here are a few simple tips to keep your plunge pool clean and functional:
Check and balance water chemistry weekly
