A swimming pond is a natural swimming pool that uses biological filtration instead of chemicals to maintain clean and clear water. It typically features a swimming zone and a regeneration zone, where plants help purify the water.
Yes, when properly maintained, swimming pond water is safe and clean. The natural filtration system, including plants and beneficial microorganisms, ensures the water remains clear and healthy without the use of chemicals.
Wildlife can introduce nutrients into the pond that may affect water clarity and quality. However, with the right design and maintenance plan, including proper plant selection and water circulation, these impacts can be minimised.
While low maintenance compared to chlorinated pools, swimming ponds do require regular upkeep. This includes managing plants, removing debris, and ensuring the filtration system is functioning correctly.
Many individuals prefer the bubbler method, which utilises air to circulate water through gravel beds and pipes. The Swimming Pond Shop provides the sole ready-to-use bubbler kit, significantly simplifying the installation process. For enhanced water clarity and effective algae management, additional filtration systems are available on our website.
The cost can vary widely based on size, design, location, and materials but expect to invest more initially than for a traditional pool due to the natural filtration system and landscaping. The Swimming Pond Shop offers kits to help streamline costs and planning.
Most gardens or yards can accommodate a swimming pond with proper planning and design. However, space, terrain, and local regulations might influence the feasibility and design of your pond.
The timeframe can vary based on the project’s complexity, but it typically takes several weeks to a few months from start to finish, including planning, excavation, installation, and landscaping.
Consider sunlight exposure, proximity to trees (which can increase debris in the pond), accessibility, and how the pond will integrate with your existing landscape. Also, think about the overall aesthetic you wish to achieve and how the pond will be used throughout the year.
