FAQ: What is a Natural Swimming Pool or "NSP"?
A NSP is a Natural Swimming Pool/Pond which means it features natural water without chlorine or salt (which is used to make chlorine) which is cleaned using a built-in biological filter. NSP's are typically constructed of natural materials like boulders, decorative gravel and water plants over a durable pond liner, rather than with concrete, plaster and tile like a traditional chlorine pool.
There are different types of NSP's: The European-based NSP system (BioNova & BioTop are example companies) is actually very different from our NSP system. Using our years of experience in the zoo & aquarium industry, we developed our NSP system specifically for the warmer, more variable climate of North America. Unlike others, our system uses powerful built-in biological filters (similar to an industrial-sized aquarium) to keep water clean & clear (with no green or cloudy water and no muddy or mucky bottom).
