love them or hate them once in they are there for good,
but how about one you can take with you when you move? it appears that pools can devalue a home,
so much so that when putting a house on the market some pool owners fill them in,
but this modular plug-and-play
swimming pool is the best of both worlds, developed by Canadian company
Modpools, these converted shipping containers measure 8 by 20 feet (or 8 by
40), can be used year-round and can be converted for use as a hot tub on demand
(via a segmenting module),
using the relatively light but
sturdy shape of the container as a framework, these pools can be lifted and
loaded onto trucks and trains (just like any other inter-modal unit), they can
also be plugged in and set to go in minutes, currently priced around US$27,000
they don’t come cheap, but offer correspondingly more flexibility, the
twice-as-long 40-footer is also not much more expensive at US$35,000 for those
with the space, and no I am not on commission I just thought it was a great
idea, leave it if the new owner wants it or take it with you to your new home, and it is another way to rid the world of a unused shipping container!
