Mesa Play Pools
Pools with even, standing depth built for games, kids and lounging instead of a diving board.
A play pool keeps most of the floor at a depth where adults can stand, usually somewhere between three and a half and five feet. Without a deep end, the whole pool is usable for volleyball, basketball and keeping an eye on kids.
It also means less water to heat and treat than a pool with an eight-foot end. For many households, that matters more than diving ever did.
Wide steps and long benches give younger swimmers a place to sit and give adults somewhere to lounge without leaving the water.
A floor that stays at standing depth from one end to the other.
Underwater benches along a wall for sitting and resting.
Deck sleeves for removable volleyball or basketball posts.
Self-closing, self-latching gates planned to the City's barrier rules.
| Play pool | Deep-end pool | |
|---|---|---|
| Standing room | Most or all of the pool | Shallow end only |
| Games | Volleyball and basketball across the pool | Shallow end only |
| Diving | Not for diving | Possible with the right depth and board |
| Water volume | Less to heat and treat | More |
Mesa's barrier brochure sets the numbers your new pool fence has to hit. No opening can pass a 4-inch sphere, and the barrier must sit at least 36 inches from anything permanent a child could climb, equipment included. Gate latches lower than 54 inches go on the pool side. We draw the fence, gates and equipment pad to those rules before the dig.
Your barrier and gates are part of the permit drawings, so they're inspected along with the pool.
Most play pools stay between roughly three and a half and five feet. We set the depth to the height of the people who'll use it most.
Yes. Some owners want a slightly deeper middle for floating or a spot for a taller swimmer. We draw a gentle profile instead of a sharp drop.
Standing depth helps, but no depth is a substitute for supervision and a proper barrier. The City of Mesa's barrier rules apply to every pool we build.
Sleeves are easiest to set in the deck while it's being poured, so we add them during construction if you think you'll want them.
