How to Build a Natural Swimming Pool

By Wolfram Kircher and Andreas Thon

A natural swimming pool is an exciting addition to a garden. It is the ultimate play resource that provides a healthy chlorine-free environment for swimming, a living ecosystem for nature lovers and whole new world of aquatic plants for gardeners. This practical handbook describes a wide range of pools from simple "swimming ponds" to models with separate plant regeneration areas, and others that resemble traditional pools. It explains how plants are used to keep the water clean and advises on pumps, skimmers and filters to minimize algae, encourage the growth of biofilm and keep the water sparkling. Book jacket.
