Bathing Pond recycling lagoon




by denis » 03/08/06, 10:32

does anyone know this type of eco-friendly pool? without product, purification is done naturally by aquatic plants and a whole independent ecosystem even with mosquito-eating pippins

Hello,
By typing "ecological pool" on google, you come across an impressive number of links.

swimming pond for recycling by lagooning




by denis » 03/08/06, 11:04

yes, yes but the problem, if we are interested, the more we look, the more there are contradictory advices, or different pond / lagoon surface ratio, even the fish, there are some who are for, other against.
but having seen the small bodies of water with Japanese type garden it makes you want, it is very beautiful, and nice, in total harmony with nature : Mrgreen: in addition I have a large meadow which is of no use to me, I will plant trees there in the first step

Basically, do you want to swim in a pond?

This type of basin is a little more complex in its design than a simple pond. To summarize the principle briefly, it is a succession of "pools" in which water circulates in a closed circuit and for which each pool has a different role. One is used for swimming, the next, planted with reeds (or equivalent), will absorb a certain number of impurities, in the following, microscopic algae or other organisms will absorb what has not been by the reeds....

In short, it is indeed a swimming pool but in which chemical filtering has been replaced by natural filtering by lagooning, plants, etc.

yes, but to bathe in clean water (clear visible bottom at + 4.5m)
clarity of the torrent, t ° of the pond
pretty pebble in the background, instead of the mud
a whole cool ecosystem to get started
without product! : Cheesy:

I browsed the aquatiss site a bit, and my feeling is quite mixed ...

I have the impression that these people sell a concept of "green" swimming pool but it is an illusion ... :|

Finally, it is very artificial while it is sold as natural ...

The principle is effectively that of an artificial "pond" but whose healthiness is ensured by natural (ecological) processes. Aside from, of course, pumping the water at the end of the cycle to reinject it into the bathing pool. Although with a ram pump, you can consume 0Watts.

It may be interesting from a tax point of view but if you want to make a "nickel" pool, it will cost you more than a usual pool.

-design
- digging and construction of the basins
- bottom collectors, pumps
-settling pond
-pumps, UV filter
-swimming = several pools, pozzolan (s) in large quantities, suitable plants
- landscaping
-Maintenance of equipment, plants, emptying of pools, cleaning of filters (even natural filters)
- etc etc etc etc

and above all, keep the balance of the system, avoid the proliferation of algae, fish or others while leaving enough nutrients for life to stay: in short it is not obvious and it is very expensive (but it's exciting - if we have the time and the money)
