The Pittsburgh Deep is the deep-end specialty pool in the Nowak Fiberglass Pools lineup. Named for the home region (Nowak builds out of Amity, Pennsylvania, south of Pittsburgh), the Pittsburgh Deep is engineered around a deeper-than-typical deep end for diving from the deck, underwater play, and deeper-water swim. Full dig dimensions and the exact deep-end depth are not currently published on the public manufacturer site, so we confirm the exact spec during your in-store consultation. The standard Nowak feature set applies: limited-production family build, upgraded gelcoat finish included, lifetime structural warranty plus the gelcoat and surface warranty. Available in all current Nowak gelcoat finishes. Seven Seas Pools & Spas builds and services the Pittsburgh Deep across our service area.

What makes the Pittsburgh Deep distinct in the Nowak lineup: it is the only Nowak shell engineered as a deep-end specialty pool. Every other Nowak model uses a conventional deep end at 5'10" to 6'3". The Pittsburgh Deep pushes deeper, which makes it the right answer when someone in the household wants a real deep end for casual diving from the deck or underwater play.
Two paths to confirm the Pittsburgh Deep spec for your yard:
Explore the Pittsburgh Deep with Seven Seas Pools & Spas and walk through the depth profile and gelcoat finish options in person before you decide.
Most fiberglass pools top out around 5'6" to 6'3" in the deep end. That is enough for swimming, casual jumps from the deck, and most underwater play. It is not enough for serious diving (handstand walks, deep cannonballs, dive-toy retrieval with sinking) without bottoming out. A deep-end specialty pool gives you depth that supports those uses without compromising the swim function of the rest of the pool.
The Pittsburgh Deep also pairs well with cold-weather climate considerations: a deeper deep end holds more thermal mass, which means the pool warms and cools more slowly. In the Mid-Atlantic and Midwest climates where Seven Seas operates, that thermal stability is a real day-to-day benefit during shoulder seasons.
The Pittsburgh Deep is available in all current Nowak gelcoat finishes:
Maya Mist
Heavenly Blue Mist
Gray Ocean Mist
Custom Colors (on
request)
The 2025 surface upgrade applies: non-pigmented gelcoat with granite-chip backing for chemical and UV resistance. The deeper deep end of the Pittsburgh Deep reads especially well in the darker Maya Mist, which gives the deeper water column more visual depth.
Both rectangular Nowaks. Grand Atlantis has a 6'3" deep end and a 30-foot swim floor; Pittsburgh Deep pushes deeper. Pick Grand Atlantis if a conventional deep end is enough; pick Pittsburgh Deep if you want the deeper-water capability.
Both rectangular. Atlantis has a 5'10" deep end in a 32' × 14' footprint; Pittsburgh Deep is the deep-end specialty rectangular pool. Confirm dimensions during the consultation.
A concrete custom pool can be designed to any diving-board-compliant depth and profile. The Pittsburgh Deep is the fiberglass approximation: deeper than a standard fiberglass shell, faster to install than concrete, lower lifetime maintenance, but fixed to the molded depth Nowak built into the shell. If competition-grade diving is the use case, the concrete path is the right one.
The Pittsburgh Deep is the right answer when at least one person in the household wants a real deep end and the yard fits a rectangular fiberglass pool. Seven Seas Pools & Spas can walk you through the gelcoat color options, confirm the dig specs for your yard, and map out the decking and equipment details before your project moves forward.
The exact deep-end depth is part of the printed Nowak spec, which Seven Seas reviews with you during the consultation. The Pittsburgh Deep is positioned as a deep-end specialty pool with deeper-than-typical depth.
Residential diving-board codes typically require more depth and a specific deep-end profile than a fiberglass shell provides. Casual diving from the deck is what the Pittsburgh Deep is engineered for. For competition diving, the concrete path is the right one.
The public site does not publish a dig diagram for the Pittsburgh Deep. Nowak prints the spec sheet for in-store and dealer use. Seven Seas has the printed spec available.
Deep-end specialty shells typically carry a price premium for the additional mold and the extra raw material required to build the deeper shell. Specific pricing is confirmed during the consultation.
Nowak's warranty position is that salt is not recommended on the gelcoat. Traditional chlorine sanitization is the recommended path. See the Nowak brand page for the full context.
Yes. The dig is deeper, which adds excavation time. The shell is heavier, which can affect the crane sizing on delivery day. Seven Seas confirms both during the site visit.
About two weeks start to finish on a typical Seven Seas Nowak install, with the deeper excavation and the heavier shell potentially pushing the timeline slightly. Confirm during the consultation.
The Pittsburgh Deep is the deepest rectangular pool Nowak builds, and the depth profile reads differently in person than on a dig diagram. Call or stop by your local Seven Seas Pools & Spas location to see the printed spec, walk through the depth profile, and confirm the full turnkey price for your yard.
