WHO IT'S FOR

Who the Essential is built for.

The Essential isn't the right pool for every backyard — and that's the point. Here's exactly who tends to choose it.

— 01

Small-yard homeowners.

New-build communities and master-planned neighborhoods often leave 25–40 feet of usable yard depth. The Essential fits cleanly inside that footprint without giving up swim space.

— 02

First pools.

A real concrete pool at the lowest Optima price point. Same equipment, same finishes, same install crew as every other tier — just sized smaller.

— 03

Tight access lots.

With a minimum 4' excavation access requirement and a compact footprint, the Essential is the most likely Optima package to clear narrow side-yard restrictions.

WHAT'S INCLUDED
