Natural pools are in fact less expensive than traditional pools in most scenarios, and their maintenance costs are much lower. Reach out to our natural swimming pool contractors for an estimate. 

Natural swimming pools are easy to maintain. The most common maintenance task is simply skimming organic materials from the surface.

An organic natural swimming pool integrates biological filtration methods, mimicking natural ecosystems. Unlike traditional pools reliant on chemicals and mechanical pumps, these pools utilize air pumps, bacteria, microfauna, and plants to maintain clean, chemical-free water.

The regeneration zone is a vital component of natural pools, housing plants and microorganisms that aid in water filtration. It acts as a natural biofilter, ensuring the water remains clean and safe for swimming by absorbing nutrients and promoting microbial activity.

Apart from filtration, the regeneration zone offers passive heating benefits. By circulating water from the cooler swimming zone into the warmer regeneration zone, natural pools utilize solar energy to heat the water, reducing the need for traditional heating methods.

On average, the construction of a natural pool takes around 6-10 weeks, similar to traditional pools. However, additional time is needed for the ecosystem to establish itself, typically ranging from 6 to 12 weeks for cycling to complete.

Cycling is the process where bacteria colonize the pool, breaking down nutrients introduced by swimming activities. This process is essential for establishing a balanced ecosystem within the pool, promoting healthy water conditions over time.
