40ft Converted Shipping Container Swimming Pool

Product Description

40ft Converted Shipping Container Swimming Pool – Premium Kit: Features

A 40ft converted shipping container swimming pool starts as a cargo-worthy Corten steel container. However, unlike raw containers that require extensive DIY modifications, this converted version arrives pre-sandblasted, primed, lined, and pre-plumbed. As a result, you save weeks of cutting, welding, and waterproofing work. In addition, all you need to add is water, a pump, and basic electrical connections. For example, the interior features a pool-grade PVC liner that resists punctures and UV damage. Similarly, we include standard cutouts for a wide skimmer, two return jets, and a bottom drain with a shut-off valve.

Installation Flexibility

You can install this 40ft converted shipping container swimming pool partially in-ground (up to 4 feet deep). Alternatively, you may place it fully above ground with a wooden deck surround. If you choose in-ground use, we apply an extra bitumen coating to the exterior. Consequently, the steel shell resists corrosion for decades. Moreover, because the container is self-supporting, you skip expensive concrete forms and rebar entirely. Therefore, installation costs remain significantly lower than traditional pools.

What’s Included

First, every converted pool comes with a pool-grade PVC liner or marine coating (your choice). Second, we pre-install a skimmer with weir door and two directional return jets. Third, a bottom drain with winterizing cap is already fitted. Finally, you receive a pre-drilled bonding lug for electrical safety and an access hatch for under-pool maintenance.

Optional Upgrades

For instance, you can add a 1.5 HP variable-speed pump and cartridge filter. Likewise, a saltwater chlorination system is available. Furthermore, LED color-changing lights or a swim-current generator can be installed before delivery. Thus, your pool can match resort-style quality without custom fabrication.
