A natural pool offers an eco-friendly and chemical-free alternative to traditional swimming pools, combining the beauty of a pond with the functionality of a refreshing swim.
If youβre ready to build your own self-cleaning, plant-powered oasis, follow these essential steps:
1. Select the Right Spot
Pick a sheltered area that receives partial sunlight.
Avoid placing the pool too close to trees to prevent excessive leaf fall, which can clog the system.
2. Plan Your Dimensions Wisely
For a true swimming experience, aim for at least 35 square meters of surface area and a depth of 1.8 meters.
Smaller pools can work too, but they rely more heavily on effective filtration.
3. Construct the Foundation
Lay down a protective fleece, followed by a robust pond liner. Add a layer of sand for padding.
Separate the pool into two zones: one for swimming and another for water regeneration with aquatic plants.
4. Set Up Water Circulation
Install a filtration system that includes a pump to move water through both mechanical (sand) and biological filters.
Constant circulation helps maintain clean, balanced water.
5. Add Aquatic Plants
In the regeneration zone, include a variety of oxygenating and filtering plants.
These serve as natural purifiers, absorbing excess nutrients and keeping algae in check.
6. Maintain Your Pool
Regularly skim off leaves, remove surface algae, and inspect your equipment.
Clean the liner occasionally to keep everything functioning efficiently.
With careful design and regular attention, a natural pool becomes a beautiful, low-impact retreat that offers clean, clear water and a connection to natureβright in your backyard.
Enjoy your sustainable summer sanctuary!
