As construction technologies evolve, modern homeowners are seeking innovative ways to make the most of their space without compromising on luxury. One standout solution gaining popularity is the hydraulic pool — a stunning combination of engineering and design that allows a swimming pool’s floor to raise or lower with the push of a button.

What Is a Hydraulic Pool?
A hydraulic pool, also known as a movable floor pool, features an adjustable floor system powered by a hydraulic mechanism. This system enables the pool’s depth to change or even disappear completely, transforming it into a patio, dance floor, or usable outdoor space.

Benefits of Hydraulic Pools

  1. Space Efficiency
    Ideal for urban homes or limited outdoor spaces, hydraulic pools allow a single area to serve multiple purposes. Whether you need a kids’ play area during the day or a full-size pool in the evening, the same space adapts instantly.

  2. Safety
    With adjustable depth, the pool can be made shallower for children or raised completely to eliminate the risk of accidental falls. It’s a great solution for families prioritizing safety without installing fences or covers.

  3. Energy Efficiency
    When closed, the retractable floor also acts as a thermal cover, preserving heat and reducing energy consumption — a practical advantage for eco-conscious homeowners.

  4. Aesthetic Appeal
    Hydraulic pools are visually seamless. When the pool is hidden, the area looks like a high-end patio, adding to the property’s overall aesthetic and value.

How Does It Work?
The pool’s floor is supported by a steel frame connected to hydraulic cylinders. These components are engineered to move smoothly and safely, supporting the weight of people when the pool is “hidden.” The system is controlled via a secure panel or remote system, with custom settings for different depths or configurations.
