How to make a natural pool
To build a natural pool, according to Ecosys' guidelines, you need to observe the following items:
- Format: The natural pool is normally built in an all-organic format, that is, dug directly into the natural ground, without the use of masonry walls in its format.
- Waterproofing: After the excavation of the land, a layer of mechanical protection is needed, so that a blanket can be placed for waterproofing, and then another layer of mechanical protection to receive the stones and other items.
- Rocks and sand: for the bottom of the pool, a special type of light sand is used. natural stones, such as pebbles, can also be added to help compose the organic look.
- Filtration system: This system is necessary to filter large dirt particles, such as leaves, and also to eliminate bacteria resulting from organic decomposition that can be harmful to health. The size and model may vary according to the pool's characteristics and, besides this, the filter must work 24 hours a day and be silent.
- Fish and plants: to complete the ecosystem, fish and plants can be placed. aquatic species such as water lilies, papyrus, mureré, and nymphaea have high filtering power and beautify the landscape. fish help to eliminate insect larvae and can be small, such as lambaris, or large, such as carp.
