MCO Pools Capri 12 Fiberglass Pool: soft curved seating in a compact pool for smaller yards
The MCO Pools Capri 12 Fiberglass Pool is a new compact model with soft curved seating for a smaller yard. It measures 12 by 26 feet, with a shallow end of 3 feet 6 inches sloping to 5 feet 6 inches deep. The seats are molded into the same piece as the floor and walls, so they are part of the shell rather than added later. There is room to sit or swim, but this is not a diving pool. Choose Caribbean Blue, Cancun White, or Eclipse Gray on the page at no extra charge. The color is already on when the shell arrives.
The price is for the shell only; your pool builder adds the pump, filter, heater, coping, and decking. You can also add a separate Santorini Spa or Mykonos spa shell on the page. It rides along in the same delivery. Prefer a wave shaped pool in the same footprint? See the MCO Pools Bora Bora Fiberglass Pool. The MCO Pools Capri 12 Fiberglass Pool comes from My Cozy Outdoors with delivery included within 250 miles of Rio Medina, Texas, No Sales Tax (except WY), and the MCO limited lifetime warranty.

Manufacturing Process
At MCO Fiberglass Pools, we take pride in crafting premium fiberglass pools at our manufacturing facility in León, Guanajuato, Mexico through a meticulous and innovative manufacturing process. Every step is designed to ensure durability, precision, and customer satisfaction:
- Design and Engineering Our expert engineers create state-of-the-art designs, integrating structural integrity, functionality, and aesthetic appeal. Each model undergoes rigorous testing and refinement to meet the highest standards.
- Mold Preparation High-precision molds are carefully prepared to ensure the perfect shape and finish for each pool. This step is critical for achieving the smooth surfaces and flawless lines that define our pools.
- Gel Coat Application A premium gel coat is evenly sprayed onto the mold, forming the outer layer of the pool. This layer provides a sleek, polished finish and acts as the first line of defense against wear and UV damage.
- Vinylester Layer Application To enhance water resistance and prevent osmosis, a layer of vinylester resin is meticulously applied. This step ensures long-lasting durability and chemical resistance.
- Fiberglass Reinforcement Multiple layers of chopped fiberglass and resin are applied using advanced spray equipment. This process creates a robust yet flexible structure capable of withstanding heavy loads and environmental stresses.
- Structural Core Integration For added strength, a core layer of Nidacore or similar honeycomb material is integrated into the pool walls. This ensures stability and reduces the risk of deformation.
- Final Layers and Curing Additional layers of fiberglass and resin are applied to achieve the desired thickness and strength. The pool is then left to cure under controlled conditions, ensuring a seamless bond between all layers.
- Quality Inspection Every pool undergoes a thorough inspection to ensure it meets our stringent quality standards. This includes checks for structural integrity, surface finish, and dimensional accuracy.
- Finishing Touches Once approved, the pool is carefully demolded, trimmed, and polished. Final details are added to enhance its visual appeal and functionality.
- Packaging and Delivery The completed pool is securely packaged and prepared for delivery, ensuring it arrives in perfect condition, ready for installation.
This process guarantees that every pool we manufacture is not only beautiful but also built to last, providing years of enjoyment and peace of mind for our customers.
Nidacore Honeycomb Core
PP polypropylene honeycomb exhibits a unique cell structure. The core has 3 orientations vs. the 2 orientations common with other honeycomb, making its properties more uniform. Each cell has a tubular form and is inherently stable. PP polypropylene honeycomb is supplied with or without a non-woven polyester veil for better bonding. It is also supplied with or without a film barrier under the polyester veil to limit the amount of resin consumption.
Applications:
PP polypropylene honeycomb uses include sandwich panel cores, energy absorption and filtration media
Features:
• High strength to weight ratio
• Corrosion, fungi, rot, chemical
and moisture resistant
• Sound and vibration dampening
• Energy absorbing
• Thermoformable
• Temperature use to 180°F
• Recyclable
Resin with Chopped Fiberglass
Additional layers of resin mixed with chopped fiberglass further enhance the pool’s resilience, enabling it to withstand challenging conditions without cracking.
Final Finish with Diamond Flakes
This signature feature gives the pool a glossy, eye-catching finish with a smooth and comfortable surface. Diamond Flakes technology also ensures a durable, low-maintenance coating.
FAQ
How much does a small fiberglass pool cost?
The Capri 12 is the compact new model at 12 by 26 ft, and its page price is the shell in your choice of three shades. Freight from Rio Medina, Texas, is free within 250 miles and per mile beyond that at the Shipping tab rate, confirmed in your quote. Your builder prices the equipment, excavation, coping and decking, and sales tax applies only to Wyoming. Browse more sizes among our fiberglass pools.
How deep is a small fiberglass pool?
The Capri 12 keeps a real depth range despite its footprint: 3 ft 6 in at the shallow end sloping to 5 ft 6 in at the deep end over 26 ft. That is enough to stand at one end and swim at the other without the 6 ft deep end of the larger models, which also keeps the excavation shallower. Follow local safety and barrier codes and treat it as a non-diving pool.
Do fiberglass pools crack?
The Capri 12’s laminate is built to flex rather than crack: resin with chopped fiberglass absorbs impact, and woven fiberglass over a Nidacore honeycomb core stiffens the walls against backfill. The warranty covers structural failure that causes water loss for as long as the original owner keeps it; hairline surface cracks are excluded, and draining the pool or letting groundwater build up voids coverage.
Can fiberglass pools be salt water?
Yes. The warranty card permits a salt chlorine generator on the Capri 12, provided you follow the generator maker’s guidelines and balance the water as the linked service manual describes. A 12 by 26 ft pool holds less water than the 30 and 35 ft models, so readings shift faster; test often and keep the weekly professional test printouts the warranty requires.
Do fiberglass pools fade?
The Capri 12’s build puts a clear UV protection coat over the diamond flake gelcoat to resist discoloration, with a vinylester layer beneath it against osmosis. Fading, staining and discoloration are excluded from the warranty, which covers the surface against osmotic blistering only, so balanced water chemistry is what keeps your chosen shade looking new.
Can a fiberglass pool be heated?
Yes. The shell has no built-in heater; a heater is part of the pump, filter and plumbing package your builder sizes for the Capri 12’s modest volume, which makes it an easy pool to keep warm. If you add a Santorini or Mykonos spa from the selector on this page, tell the builder so the heater is sized for both shells.

What Our Customers Say
D
A sauna turns your garden into a spa oasis. We debated it for a while, but after renovating our house, we pulled the trigger and bought a sauna from Norse Steam and Maya. She was always super responsive and helpful throughout the process. Don't kid yourself, getting a really nice sauna is not that easy. Sizing and heating need to be figured out, as does the building, but we have always had a helpful partner on our side. She never upsold us on anything we didn't need, and we got some nice freebies when the sauna was delivered. And now we can really enjoy every moment in our garden.
KF
I'm really happy with my sauna purchase. Maya gave above and beyond excellent customer service. She wasn't pushy and gave impressive followup after the delivery to make sure everything was just right.
DE
I enjoy my FD2 Sauna with Red Light, Infrared and radiant heat. Use it 5x a week and my post workout soreness is minimal and sleep great. Maya at Norse Steam was excellent to work with.
B
We purchased the 3-person sauna for our outdoor garden. We chose the cube sauna for the aesthetic and could not be happier.
I assembled by myself except for the 2 large panels (requires a few people). Instructions were good - took me two partial Saturdays to complete and a few hours to unpack and organize in advance of assembly. Had my elec. add a NEMA enclosure on the back for the controller and power for lights and a 2nd panel for the wireless control.
Customer service was excellent
MP
Awesome Sauna and Awesome Company and Experience purchasing it from Maya!
After much research I chose the Finnmark FD-2 and it has met and exceeded all my expectations! Easy to assemble and it functions great - just as advertised. I highly recommend it for home use!
EA
Recently purchased the Finnmark one person after much research. Extremely happy with it and the ordering process. Maya was very responsive and helpful during the process and keeping us updated while we waited for shipment. There were several places I could have ordered this, but i chose Norse Steam based on the communication and customer service which was fantastic. The shipment was also excellent. The setup was pretty seamless for two people - but the best part is the sauna experience 10/10
G
Maya is amazing - super helpful and responsive. Looked at many stores, these guys have the best prices and service. Highly recommend
GR
Norse Steam, and specifically Maya, were extremely helpful as I was making the decision for our Sauna. I was able to get all of the necessary details to make a decision as construction was happening in my backyard to make space for it.
We absolutely love the CL7G. It is extremely comfortable for 6 people (can fit more less comfortably). The Thermory Spruce and Aspen in the interior smells great. The lighting is lovely. We paired the CL7G with the Harvia Spirit 10.5kw.
RS
Had great experience shopping at Norse Steam for the new heater. They had very good deal, with rocks. Customer service was good, and responded very fast with my questions. Received the heater, and it looks good, and the quality seem to be great. Will install soon, and am very excited to start experiencing sauna the way it ment to be

Can highly recommend Norse Steam for others.
JR
Smoking Hot Tub!
I got the Norse Steam SaunaLife wood-fired hot tub, the S4N model, and its been seriously great. It heats up quicker than I expected, usually around an hour and a half, and once its hot, it stays that way for a good long while. The wood-fired system is simple to use, and honestly kind of fun.
The tub itself feels solid and well put together. The thermo-spruce exterior looks beautiful in person, and the fiberglass interior is smooth, deep, and easy to clean. Its the kind of setup that just works without a bunch of fuss, which I really appreciate.
Also, the team at Norse Steam was genuinely great to work with. Super helpful, quick to respond, and made the process really easy from start to finish. It felt like they actually cared that I was happy with it. The tub has totally become a go-to way to unwind, and I wouldnt change a thing.

Great Sauna & Purchase Experience
Great experience purchasing Finnmark FD-2 from Norse Steam. Good communication and easy to assemble. Temperature increases quickly (30 minutes or less to 140) and maintains well. So far this has been a great purchase.
M
Great sauna and great customer service
We purchased the Finnmark SD-1 sauna. Maya was extremely helpful with the purchase. We had an issue with the sauna not reaching the maximum temperature, and Maya connected us with the appropriate technician that explained how to correct the issue. The sauna now heats to the maximum temperature (170 degrees) in less than an hour, and it is a great unit. We are very happy with it, and we would definitely purchase from NorseSteam if we needed any other items.

Sauna Review
I recently purchased a sauna from Norse Steam, and I couldn't be more impressed with the entire experience. From start to finish, their customer service was exceptional, and Maya deserves special recognition for her outstanding support!
Maya was incredibly knowledgeable and patient, answering all my questions about the sauna features, installation process, and maintenance. She went above and beyond to ensure I selected the perfect model for my home. Even after the purchase, Maya followed up to make sure everything was running smoothly and that I was satisfied with my sauna.
The sauna itself is top-notch beautifully designed, durable, and easy to use. It's clear that Norse Steam takes pride in the quality of their products and their commitment to customer satisfaction.
If you're considering a sauna, I wholeheartedly recommend Norse Steam. With their excellent customer service and high-quality products, you're in great hands. Thank you, Maya, and the entire Norse Steam team for a fantastic experience!
