Now, stainless steel may sound like an odd material for a pool, but bear with us, it’s actually quite amazing. There are some unique benefits to stainless steel that make them a great choice for your pool.

To start your research off, here are some benefits to installing a stainless steel pool in your yard to create your very own oasis.


Safer for the environment

When it comes to pools, a significant benefit of stainless steel is that it’s 100% recyclable. Your pool will be a clean, green, oasis machine — okay, that joke was kind of lame, but worth it!

The process of developing stainless steel is becoming more environmentally friendly as well. Up to 70% of the materials used to create stainless steel are recycled material — 30% to 40% comes from newer, raw materials.

Vinyl liner pools can develop leaks and allow chemically treated water to leach its way into the soil, causing environmental damage. Stainless steel pools don’t naturally develop leaks unless they're punctured, broken or completed neglected. This makes stainless steel quite environmentally friendly!

Stainless steel pools also aren’t coated with any toxic material. This means there is no chance of toxic runoff and that’s a huge plus for the environment. Not only will your pool be safer for the environment, but this also reduces how much yard maintenance you will have to do in the long run.

Less maintenance

Speaking of maintenance, some pools can take a lot of work to constantly maintain. Luckily, stainless steel pools require the least amount of maintenance. Score!

The smooth surface is easy to clean. No nooks or crannies for bacteria and residue to build up in. With proper cleaning and maintenance, this material won’t delaminate, crack, peel, discolour, leak or need additional finishes throughout its life.

A major component of pool maintenance has to do with hygiene. Since stainless steel is non-porous, easy to clean and bacteria-resistant, this material is one of the best options for your pool.


Customizable

Find an aesthetic that suites your style. Stainless steel is easily formable to any shape you like, allowing for some beautifully unique pools to crop up.

Stainless steel doesn't settle and crack over time — even with temperature fluctuations, which we are prone to in the Okanagan. It's one of the lightest materials which makes it quite easy to install. The malleability and toughness of stainless steel allows it to adapt to its environment and opens the door for way more customization.

If you're looking for additional customization, there's acrylic glass that will improve the elegance to your pool. These can be made in any size and come in entire pool walls to a waterline vanishing edge.

A long-lasting, environmentally-friendly, customizable stainless steel pool could be the answer to your burning question, ‘how can I create my own peaceful oasis?’ Stainless steel is faster and cheaper to install so you can start enjoying it very soon.

Valley Pool and Spa offers a wide variety of stainless steel pools for residential and commercial properties. This material gives them the freedom to tackle any job and form it to whatever the customer wants while staying environmentally friendly.
