80 % swimming area,
only 20 % filtering zone
With a TeichMeister natural
pool, you may reduce the
part of the filtering zone up to
20 % in private properties.
This means that as much as
80% of the total surface may
be used for swimming.
Bathing quality for highest requirements
The alternative to a conventional swimming pool
TeichMeister natural pools have a steady long-term
water biology and offer the ideal mix of attrac-
tiveness and easy care.
When thinking about purchasing a natural pool, time and
effort for maintenance and care should not be neglected,
as it is essential in order to preserve quality and usabili-
ty over many years. Conventional swimming pools are
run with substantial amounts of chemical additives, which
is not necessary for natural pools. Though, natural pools
need to be maintained and cleaned regularly (so do con-
ventional ones too) to keep the organic balance stable.
From then, the TeichMeister natural pools will grant you,
with assistance of the "Aqua-Superton" filtering system,
troublefree bathing pleasure.
