The growing consumer demand for non-chlorinated swimming pools has spurred the development of saltwater and ozone pool systems. Natural swimming pools (NSPs) are an ecologically-friendly freshwater alternative. NSP’s are all the rage in Europe and Great Britain (where thousands have been built), and they are now surfacing here, in Ontario and across North America.

Conventional pools rely on chlorine and other chemicals to maintain sterile, algae-free water. NSP’s, on the other hand, are anything but sterile. They are living aquatic ecosystems, designed to look and function like a natural pond. Water quality is maintained through the combination of bio-filters, UV filters, and mechanical aeration in combination with lush aquatic plant filters—the signature feature—surrounding an open swim zone. The plant filters, in turn, provide a habitat for birds, dragonflies, frogs, turtles, newts, and a host of other fauna.
