All about natural swimming pools and ponds
Natural ponds are filtered by plant life, but for a conventional swimming pool, or even hot tub, they can be treated with salt water as well. That would be our preferred alterative to cholorine. It’s not quite as nice an experience (for humans and wildlife) as a natural pond, but it’s a far cry better than stepping our of a chlorinate pool coated in a chemical smell, at least in our humble opinion!
