What about Mosquitoes? Not an issue as the water is always moving and is Aerobic, both of which mosquitoes dislike.
Can we install a automatic pool cover? Yes.
As long as it is designed properly.
How hot can the water get? We like to say about 84 degrees, but with proper understanding can reach in excess of 100 degrees.
Hows it compare in cost to a traditional pool? Our pools normally costs double that of a traditional pool.
Can you add a spa? Yes. Although we have not built such to date, when properly designed can be built.
Can we renovate our pool into a natural pool? Absolutely. Upon reviewing your
existing pool we would offer the best solutions.
Does it get winterized? Yes. Much like a traditional pool normally without a winter cover.
Is it like a salt water pool? NO! To put it simply there is no such thing as a salt water pool. It is a term that is a misrepresentation of the product to gain sales. Simply put a salt water pool generates pure chlorine with no bi-products from the addition of salt to your pool water. Theses bi-products are than usually additionally added to stabilize the created pure chlorine. The addition of salt to any pool by itself will not produce a clean pool.
Will there be algae in the pool? Yes. But with proper design, understanding and maintenance will be at an absolute minimum and barely noticeable.
What about maintenance? Although I have seen claims that these pools don't need maintenance I can assure you they do. We supply our clients with a simple understanding of why and how to maintain their pool which will include vacuuming and attending the plant zone for any necessary pruning on a weekly basis.
What about wildlife in the pool? If the pool is properly maintained, larger wildlife will be discouraged from entering. We do discourage ducks from these pools. Decoys and motion sensor water repellents are a safe way to scare off any unwanted animals. It is common to have occasional frogs or very small snails that cling to the walls and some amazingly beautiful dragon flies and birds. All of which are part of a healthy ecosystem.
Can you build a biological pool without plants? Yes. Although the plants have a purpose in cleaning the water we offer the same 100% chemical free swimming pool without the plants using a trade secret filter system. These plant less pools are a great alternative if you want the benefits of a biological pool but don't want to maintain the aquatic plants or you do not have space for a plant zone.
