O'SWIM | FAQ

Can an O’Swim pool complement an existing swimming pool, or does it have to replace it?



Rather than closing your existing facility, it is entirely possible to adapt and enhance your offer: combining your current structure with a natural swimming basin adds value to your site, allows you to keep the same team, and meets local needs—at a lower cost.

Are subsidies or public grants available?



There are numerous and substantial funding opportunities available (e.g., Plan 5000 Sports Facilities – Generation 2024).O’Swim can support you throughout the process in a project-based approach to ensure efficiency. We can also collaborate, on a case-by-case basis, with our partner ABF Décisions, a specialist in public funding strategies. This support is optional.

What level of responsibility is delegated for the maintenance of an O’Swim pool?



Routine maintenance and cleaning are the responsibility of the local authority. However, once a year, O’Swim experts carry out a preventive maintenance operation (inspection of the structure, floats, anchors, cleaning of walls and bottom, inspection of walkways and guardrails).
O’Swim is also exploring the possibility of offering a delegated public service handled by specialized professionals.

Are there specific financing solutions?



O’Swim offers a financial leasing model as an innovative alternative to traditional investment financing.This solution involves preliminary legal discussions about the possible commitment duration the municipality can make. It introduces a flexible approach compared to traditional purchasing, allowing some municipalities to spread out implementation costs of a natural aquatic center over time.
