Fits standard Mackay blocks
6-9m pool footprints work on most 600m² suburban blocks with room left over for a lawn and shed.
Medium pool range
Medium pools: the sweet spot for most Mackay families.
Six to nine metres long — big enough for kids to properly play, small enough to leave space for a lawn, a shed and a decent entertaining zone. Most Mackay installs land here for a reason.

If you asked us to build a spec sheet for the pool most Mackay families actually want, it would look like this: seven metres long, four metres wide, a wide leisure zone with a gently sloping floor, a defined deep end for adult swims, and enough shell room that visitors don't feel crowded.
That's the medium pool range. Sanctuary 7.0, Sanctuary 8.2, X-Trainer 7.2, X-Trainer 8.2, Vogue 7.15, Vogue 8.2, Contemporary 9.5. Every one of these shapes ships in the 6-9 metre footprint that hits the sweet spot for standard suburban Mackay blocks — the older estates around North Mackay, the new subdivisions in Rural View and Beaconsfield, the family blocks in Andergrove.
The build cost is the biggest jump in the range — you get materially more shell than a small pool for roughly 30% more money — but the return is a pool the whole family will use for the next twenty years.

Why Mackay families choose Compass medium pools.
