What does “dipping pool” refer to? Imprecisely, the phrases “dipping pool” and “plunge pool” are sometimes used interchangeably. While both are compact pools perfect for small places, plunge pools are often unheated and have deeper water. Dip pools tend to be shallower and may be heated. Diving is not ideal in dipping pools due to their shallow depth; instead, wading, cooling off, tanning, and relaxing are the main uses for them. The Latham Jamaica model is a good example of a dipping pool. A classic and timeless design, the Latham Jamaica provides a private oasis where you will feel relaxed and at peace with the day.

Standard in all Latham Jamaica pool packages is:

• White LED pool light and transformer (75-watt light with 120v to 12v transformer. 75-watt LED light is equivalent to a 500-watt incandescent light bulb).

• Up to 90% energy-efficient VS 950 variable speed pump

• Sand filter

• Excavation (side-cast spoils)

• Well-point, backfill, 11.5” brick coping

• 2’ of uncolored broom finish concrete (to create a 3’ wide deck around the pool)

• Maintenance kit (Portland Metro Area, pool-side access, level lot. Site inspection required.)
