RENOVATION INSPIRATION: Natural pools, no chlorine needed


These natural swimming pools make me want to dive right in. The Bionova system creates two swimming pools -- one is the natural eco-system that filters the water while the other is the swimming area. These pools are like "swimming in sweet water, not poison water," according to Australian founder Peter Watson. The swimming water is "alive" with healthy microbes that are kept in balance with a patented hydraulic system and a mix of plants and water critters that keep the balance in the water. No chlorine. No bromine. No ozone. And no green hair. These pools don't come cheap, but they look rather enticing. There's also the added benefit of saving loads of money in ongoing maintenance and chemical costs. Love 'em! For more detail on them, read my Sydney Morning Herald piece in Essential next week!
