Petite Source Features
Petite Source is a bath of pure pleasures. Available in 3 sizes, 2 heights, and 10 finishes, Petite Source is designed as a space for relaxation to enjoy water both indoors and outdoors.
Developed by Piscinelle, Petite Source was imagined as a unique creation that reinvents the art of water living.
With a deep ecological commitment at the heart of its development, Petite Source brings together exceptional know-how, history, technology, and above all, well-being. All this while remaining remarkably simple to install and use.
Because every Petite Source desire is unique, we offer finishes designed to meet your individual expectations.
An Eco-Designed Product
Fully aware of today’s environmental challenges, we envisioned Petite Source as a synthesis of the benefits and conviviality of water.
From 1 to 3m³
Petite Source cherishes water—and uses it responsibly. That’s why it only requires one to three cubic meters to fill, lasting as long as you desire. Petite Source cares for water through smart treatment. No excessive consumption: if you choose, it can even be filled with rainwater. No noisy or bubbling gadgets, no unnecessary technical devices: a cartridge filter ensures water quality at all times, so you can enjoy it whenever you wish. Water doesn’t need more, nor does the mind.
100% Recyclable Aluminum Structure
The materials that form the structure of Petite Source reflect our commitment to responsibility—they are 90% recyclable.
The 322 to 447 kilograms of aluminum that make up your Petite Source can, if you choose, be recycled without losing their physical and chemical properties—saving precious resources. When the time comes, we will be there to assist with disassembly and aluminum recovery. Because our responsibility is both environmental and economic.
Controlled Consumption
As a responsible product, Petite Source is economical not only in its water usage but also in its chemical and electrical consumption.
With reinforced insulation at multiple points and low-consumption, state-of-the-art equipment, Petite Source’s low water volume enables true energy and cost efficiency.
French Manufacturing
Petite Source is designed and made in France by Piscinelle, a 100% French family-owned group, both in terms of capital and production.
With 88% of expenditures in France and 99% within the European Union, Petite Source has earned the right to the "Origine France" label, as verified by customs in November 2023.
Design and Quality in the Service of Comfort
Beyond its beauty, Petite Source was conceived as the setting for a new water experience. A multisensory experience of relaxation and serenity, expressed through a multitude of details crafted for total well-being.

Submerged Benches
Drawing from the experience of thousands of customers, we’ve made it essential to integrate submerged benches into Petite Source. These U-shaped benches allow for extended bathing, chatting, and relaxing, offering a variety of comfortable positions in perfectly tempered water.
The bench structure is made entirely of aluminum, covered with a resilient foam beneath the liner, ensuring great comfort for long periods of use.
U-shaped Bench Dimensions:
- Height: 40.5 cm
- Side bench depth: 40.5 cm
- Central bench depth: 46 cm
The Coping
The coping of Petite Source is one of the defining features of your bath. Made entirely of anodized aluminum, it offers not only durability and elegant design but also a smooth, silky feel.
Its subtly textured surface interacts with light, creating different visual effects throughout the day.
Unique in the pool world, the metal coping is integral to the structure, waterproofing, and finish of the bath. At 17 cm wide, it provides comfortable seating, and the Petite Source headrest is perfectly adapted to it.
Note: Standing on the coping is not recommended for safety reasons due to its narrow width.
Multicolor LED Spotlight
Each Petite Source is equipped with a color-changing LED spotlight that enhances the ambiance, especially at night. The bathing space becomes warm and inviting, with the soft light whispering relaxation.
The spotlight is controlled via a stainless steel button on the deck or a dedicated remote for intuitive use. It is energy-efficient and connected directly to Petite Source’s main electrical box.
The Deck
The deck plays a key role in the harmony that defines Petite Source. Handcrafted by experienced carpenters, it is designed in the style of sailboat decks.
This level of craftsmanship allows it to withstand the elements with ease. Its production requires many hours of meticulous work — cutting, planing, gluing, sanding, applying multiple layers of varnish, and creating a nearly invisible access hatch to the skimmer. The result is a true delight for the eyes and the mind.
The deck is mounted above the integrated technical chamber using a locking system that allows for easy removal. It is also fully watertight, protecting all your filtration equipment.
Water Heating
Designed as an all-season outdoor bath, Petite Source features a discreet and efficient heating system that allows you to enjoy it fully—even when the temperatures drop.
Precise electronic control
The water is heated to your desired temperature thanks to an intelligent regulation system. You set your comfort level, and the system takes care of the rest.
Fast heat-up time
The system ensures optimized heat-up times so you can enjoy your bath without delay—even outside the warmer months.
Simplified operation
Control is done via an intuitive panel or remotely if your equipment is connected to Wi-Fi. You can schedule your sessions or activate the heating on demand with just a few taps.
Controlled energy consumption
The thermal performance of Petite Source (insulated structure and floor + insulated cover) limits heat loss. The result: exceptional comfort without unnecessary energy use.
Intuitive & Connected Control
For total ease of use, Petite Source integrates the most advanced control systems. An intuitive touchscreen interface allows you to set filtration cycles, heating, interior lighting, and the blower option.
For added comfort, Petite Source is also fully remotely controllable via your Wi-Fi network and a free mobile app. Nothing superfluous — just effortless daily serenity.
A New Kind of Lighting
Petite Source offers two finishes featuring integrated perimeter lighting: “Midnight Halo” and “Starry Nest”.
Thanks to this exterior lighting with adjustable colors and intensity, nighttime atmospheres can be transformed at will — creating a true invitation to dream, while giving architects, landscape designers, and interior decorators a new way to unleash their creativity to meet the bold visions of private clients and hospitality professionals alike.
Finish Panels
Whichever finish panels you choose to define your Petite Source, each one is entirely hand-machined in our workshop to ensure precise sizing and custom openings for the integrated technical chamber.
Every material is carefully selected to offer the highest resistance to weather, UV exposure, and extreme temperature variations.
Maintenance is remarkably simple and requires only mild, non-abrasive detergents.
Water color selection
The liner (which serves as the waterproof compartment of Petite Source) determines the color of the water and its reflections. Its hue responds to sunlight, the twinkling of candles, or projector lighting at night. Thus, the color of the liner contributes to realizing your vision of what Petite Source should be: a lagoon, a river, or a distant sandbank where the shoreline fades into the distance…
Your liner is available in three colors: light gray, sand, or white. The sealing components (skimmer, return jets, and bottom drain) will, by default, be provided in the same color as your liner for perfect harmony of Petite Source (unless you opt for the stainless steel option).

Foldable Isothermal Foam Cover
In direct contact with the water surface, the foam cover ensures the thermal insulation of Petite Source while preventing 98% of water evaporation.
The blue floating, closed-cell insulating foam cover is 8 mm thick (510 g/m² – Approximately 1.5 kg). Designed for your ease of use, it is custom-made for Petite Source in a "foldable" design to facilitate handling and storage. The cover consists of 4 sections (0.5 m x 1.5 m) and 3 folds reinforced on both sides by a 4 cm polyethylene reinforced fabric.
Delivered as standard with Petite Source, the cover is a consumable available for purchase.
The Insulation and Comfort Foam Under the Liner
Petite Source is filled with charm and discretion... hidden from view, it is equipped with a high-density, non-deformable foam that provides great user comfort while offering thermal insulation to help maintain the water temperature.
Particularly suited for submerged beaches, the comfort of your benches allows for long reading sessions and conversations without any discomfort.
Moreover, this foam absorbs shocks, provides a flawless finish to the covered surfaces, and prevents any microbial growth.
Note: this high-density closed-cell polyolefin foam is 5 mm thick. It is manufactured without chemical processes, giving it strong stability.
Integrated Frost Protection
For complete peace of mind, Petite Source includes an integrated frost protection feature to safeguard your bath during the winter season—effortlessly.
The onboard technical chamber is equipped with sensors that monitor both water and air temperatures, automatically activating water circulation before frost can form.
Integrated Technical Chamber
For your peace of mind, Petite Source has an integrated technical chamber that houses all filtration, heating, and lighting circuits. Positioned under the waterproof deck, it is accessible from the side by removing the cladding of Petite Source.
For operation, simply connect Petite Source to an electrical supply of 2.5 kW (equivalent to the simultaneous use of a kettle and an oven).
For ease of use, it's recommended to leave about 70 cm of space behind the technical chamber.
Petite Source Manual Cleaning Kit
This cleaning kit includes a net, brush, and a vacuum that also helps top up the water. It allows you to easily maintain the water volume.
The Treatment Pack
For your peace of mind, Petite Source is delivered with a chemical pack that provides approximately six months of treatment, depending on usage conditions.
This pack contains the following items:
- Micro-dosed chlorine tablets
- pH-minus powder
- Calcinex
- Algaecide
- Test strips
Available Options
Petite Source comes equipped with numerous high-quality standard features. To meet specific needs, we’ve developed a range of options, always with the same attention to excellence.
Access Podium
The Petite Source access podium is designed to offer an elegant and comfortable way to step up to the pool, blending seamlessly with its contemporary design.
The steps and risers are made of solid ipe wood with no visible screws. The cladding is mirrored and available in several shades to perfectly match your surroundings.
The podium is available in a single version for access from one side, or in a double version by combining two modules to create a practical and elegant entry from opposite sides.
Both practical and aesthetic, the access podium enhances the Petite Source experience by combining safety, comfort, and design.
Golden Anodization
To add an even more refined, warm, and luxurious touch to your Petite Source, we offer the option of golden anodization for the aluminum finishing elements.
The coping and all cladding supports receive a special treatment using pigments similar to those found in the cave paintings of Lascaux—imbuing them with a rich, warm, and lasting hue.
Blower
What if your Petite Source sparkled? With fine bubbles on two or three stations, your Petite Source will offer you the thrill of effervescence for moments of deep relaxation.
The bubbling stations are available in stainless steel or ABS in the color of your liner.
Protective Cover
Designed by Petite Source, each protective cover is handcrafted in artisan workshops in Nantes, France.
Made from high-quality marine-grade waterproof fabric, the cover is equipped with zip fastenings. It also comes with solid ipe reinforcement bars that are positioned above the water surface to keep the cover securely in place, even in rainy weather.
The protective cover is supplied with a rigid case to ensure safe storage and protect it from damage.
Just like the headrests, to achieve perfect harmony with your environment, we offer custom-made covers crafted in collaboration with the renowned Pierre Frey design house. Pricing depends on the selected fabric.
Removable Floor Systems
Petite Source must be installed on a stable, level, smooth surface capable of supporting its full water weight.
All these requirements are essential, and we offer three solutions depending on the location and/or its condition:
- Integrated floor (see models T250)
- Installation subfloor
- Removable structural floor
All these solutions allow for a compliant, quick, and simple installation — without concrete.
316L Stainless Steel Skimmer
Petite Source takes its design even further with a stainless steel finish on the skimmer. With its marine-grade quality, 316L stainless steel is the best possible material in terms of both aesthetics and durability.
The skimmer will have a subtle, almost discreet shine—but as we know, perfection lies in the details...
Note: the other built-in fittings will be supplied in ABS matching the color of your liner.
Headrests
The Petite Source headrest is one of those details that truly elevate your bathing experience. Whether you're sitting or lying in the water, this pillow naturally supports your relaxation with subtle elegance.
Designed by Petite Source, each headrest is handcrafted in artisan workshops in the Loire region of France.
Made from marine-grade waterproof fabric, the headrest consists of three cushions connected together and is simply placed over your anodized aluminum coping. It is available in two colors.
To achieve perfect harmony with your environment, we offer custom-made headrests in collaboration with the prestigious Pierre Frey design house. Pricing depends on the fabric selected.
Dimensions:
Central cushion: 60 cm × 17 cm; height 10 cm
Side cushions: 60 cm × cylindrical shape, diameter 8 cm
