Chemical-free pools - swimming in natural water without compromise
A chemical-free pool is more than just a pool in which no chemical products are used. After all, you don't want to use chemicals, but you still want to enjoy crystal-clear and clean water. While traditional swimming pools rely on chlorine and other chemicals, chemical-free pools, or Living Pools, offer a sustainable solution that gives people a unique swimming experience.
Instead of classic, artificial disinfection, a sophisticated filter system with bio and phosphate filters cleans the water. The result is clear bathing water that feels like a mountain lake, fresh, natural and free of chlorine odour, without having to sacrifice the classic look of a swimming pool.
Advantages of chemical-free pools
The decision in favour of a Natural pool brings numerous advantages:
- Health: No chlorine, no irritating chemicals. The water is gentle on the skin, eyes and body.
- Environment: Sustainable water treatment without harming nature.
- Feeling: Bathing in clear natural water conveys a special feeling of well-being.
- Design: A chemical-free pool blends harmoniously into the garden and becomes a natural oasis.
- Costs: Lower operating costs thanks to reduced water consumption, lower costs for chemical products and economical use of electricity.
- Care: Less time-consuming pool maintenance.
A Living Pool, or a modern natural pool, is therefore the perfect alternative to traditional swimming pools without having to compromise on quality and bathing pleasure.
Technology and water treatment
The technology behind a chemical-free pool is as fascinating as it is efficient. Instead of pool chemicals, a combination of filter system, biofilter and phosphate filter is used. These materials and systems ensure that germs, algae and excess nutrients are removed from the pool water. The result is crystal-clear and clean water.
The result is a combination of modern technology and a natural effect that keeps the bathing water clear and hygienic, without any chlorine. You don't have to do without technologies such as a counter-current system for more movement or a heat pump for a pleasant water temperature.

Water quality and effect
The water quality in a chemical-free pool is unique. It is reminiscent of the feeling of swimming in a clear mountain lake, even if it looks like a normal swimming pool with pure natural water that refreshes the body and revitalises the senses.
The effect of Living Pool technology on the environment is just as positive: as no chemicals are used, the system remains in balance. The bath water can even be described as having a quality similar to drinking water, as it is free from artificial additives.
Another natural alternative if you want a chemical-free pool is the Swimming pond, The pool has a completely different look and features a regeneration zone in which the water is purified with the help of plants and natural filter systems.
Care and cleaning
Even if no chemicals are used, a chemical-free pool requires a certain amount of care. Instead of regularly adding disinfectants or tablets, pool and water care centres on checking the filter system.
- Water change: Only partially and rarely necessary, as the system remains very stable
- Cleaning: Removal of leaves from the water surface, algae and sediment from the pool water, depending on the environment
- Control: Checking the functionality of the filter system
This ensures that the bathing experience remains pleasant and the costs for maintenance are generally manageable.
Design and layout
A chemical-free pool is not only functional, but also an aesthetic highlight. The modern Living Pool can be designed as a near-natural biopool, a spacious natural pool or a classic swimming pool. The design depends on the homeowner's wishes, as there are many possibilities and options, including integration into an overall garden concept.
The size, shape and materials used as well as the Living Pool technology can be customised to your wishes and the available space. A chemical-free pool from egli jona blends harmoniously into the garden and creates an oasis of calm. The combination of design and nature makes it a special place that inspires people, without the disadvantages of a pool with chlorine.
Sustainability and the environment
In a world where sustainability is becoming increasingly important, chemical-free pools are a strong signal. They reduce water consumption, lower operating costs and avoid the use of harmful chlorine in the pool water.
The environment benefits twice over, as resources are conserved and chemical residues in the system are avoided. A chemical-free pool is therefore not only a personal decision, but also a contribution to nature.
The Living Pool compared to classic swimming pools
In contrast to conventional swimming pools, which rely on pool chemicals and regular disinfection, chemical-free pools offer a sustainable solution.
- No chlorine odour.
- No burning sensation in the eyes.
- No strain on the skin.
- No high costs for chemicals.
- No compromises for health or water quality.
The bathing pleasure and cooling are therefore more intense and natural.
