Our "kampung-style" swimming pool was neglected for the past few months. Previously the swimming pool depends on continuous flow of water from the nearby hill (Pelindung). Few years ago both hubby and bro-in-law set up a piping system from above the hill for the continuous flow of fresh water. There were periods of blockage, but it was resolved once they go up hiking again. However due to recent housing projects nearby, the flow stopped altogether. Furthermore both hubby and bro-in-law don't have time to go up hiking. So our pool was neglected.
Hate the sight of neglected pool, I look up at the internet for an alternative idea. I found an interesting alternative....hence, I am in the process of converting it into a natural swimming pool.....
Natural swimming pool is popular in Europe. It obviates the need to use complex and expensive filtering system. It uses natural plant as a filter system. Currently it is still under experiment. Already bought few water plants such as lotus, water lily etc...don't really know their name! (will educate myself though).
