Trevi Pools
A nationally recognized, premiere designer and developer of wonderfully wet home getaways, this purveyor of family fun knows how to build crowd-pleasing entertainments. Since 2006, Trevi Pools & Spas has satisfied the needs of Calgary, manufacturing their own line of in-ground, semi-inground, and above ground pools that are made in our own backyard.
“Trevi has been manufacturing their own line of pools and spas in Montreal since 1972,” shares Jesse Piteau, co-owner of the Trevi location in Calgary. With large volumes in Canada allowing them to offer very competitive prices, Jesse notes, “It’s about fit, finish, and price, and we deliver on all fronts.”
Like most things, pools have undergone their own evolution of change within the home market. “In the past we have seen many different shapes and free-form pools, but people are now returning to the basics,” observes Jesse. It appears homeowners are more interested in convenience and practical, useable space with rectangular and lap pools back in fashion. “These pools afford a motorized retractable cover due to straight tracks. You can walk right across them and they’re very durable.”
“Having these covers mean that you don’t require any special fencing as they have locking mechanisms. In many communities such as Elbow Valley, there is no fencing allowed and a fully sealed cover provides both maintenance and safety features for children and pets,” admits Jesse. Acidic rain affects PH levels, which now can pool on the cover before it is pumped away. Providing peace of mind, savings on chemicals and natural gas on heating, innovative accessories have emerged with a myriad of improvements in cost-effectiveness and function.
Other notable changes include more customized staircases and sun ledges that have replaced the ladder for comfortable cool downs. Swim or exercise jets create a current of resistance, allowing tighter spaces and budgets to afford a lap pool experience. “At Trevi we don’t subcontract with both owners working on site. It’s our client relationships and their satisfaction that makes a big difference.”
