The ideal pool size for laps, also known as a lap pool, typically ranges from 25 to 50 meters in length. However, for residential purposes, a lap pool size between 40 and 75 feet long and 8 to 10 feet wide is generally considered adequate. The depth of a lap pool is typically uniform, ranging from 4 to 6 feet, allowing enough depth for a swimmer to maintain proper form while swimming laps.
