Without mud, frogs or even snakes and as bright blue as classic chlorine pools: natural pools are only filled once, are crystal clear and function without chemical additives.
Vienna (OTS) – Swim sustainably and freshly through the dog days. Around a hundred member companies of the Austrian Swimming Pond & Natural Pool Construction Association (VÖSN) build stylish and technically sophisticated natural pools. This ecological solution has recently emerged as a sustainable and increasingly popular alternative to chlorine pools. Wasting water is a thing of the past: once filled, the water cleans itself without chemical additives. This has worked almost miraculously for many years. Proven experts know how to do this. It is also possible to convert existing chlorine pools.
Austria sets standards worldwide
„In recent years, garden designers, biologists and experts have been racking their brains to ensure that natural pools also function perfectly hygienically
“, says Ing. Franz Kubacek, head of national and international representation, and adds: “One thing is crystal clear: Austria is at the forefront.
” By this he means that from a technical point of view, natural pools are now so advanced that laypeople can hardly tell the difference to classic chlorine pools. At the customer’s request, the biologically purified water glitters just as blue and crystal clear. A small difference is that in natural pools a biofilm forms on foil surfaces, which helps purify the water.
A lot has also happened with the swimming ponds
Technical solutions ensure that defined swimming areas remain free of plants. For anyone who likes aquatic plants and animals but doesn’t want them in swimming water, hybrid versions with two separate pools are possible.
The Association of Austrian Swimming Pond & Natural Pool Construction (VÖSN) is at the center of the action when it comes to offering world-leading knowledge to the companies carrying out the work. “We are currently supporting complex projects in Austria, Germany and Italy
“Chairman Kubacek says proudly.
Costs similar to classic pools
Swimming ponds and natural pools are sustainable, skin-friendly and water-saving. To make this possible and work over the long term, more than 100 VÖSN member companies have subjected themselves to strict quality guidelines in order to be able to build technically and hygienically first-class systems.
These high-tech biological systems require in-depth knowledge and precise planning. “As an association, we ensure that only the best specialists implement such projects
“, says GtM. Martin Mikulitsch, Board Member for Education, emphatically underlines Austria’s leading global position. He goes on to say: “And of course the price is also crucial. In contrast to organic food, the costs for natural pools are comparable to those of chlorine pools.
