Convert Your Pool To A Pond
When a pool is no longer being used it can be converted into a natural environmentally friendly oasis in your garden that invites birds, frogs, bees and wildlife to visit and make their home.
Conversions can be relatively simple in the form of aeration systems combined with strategic planting or wetland filtration systems.
Other benefits include
- Pulling the plug on the pool pump and filter can easily save you a small fortune in electricity costs
- The conversion is reversible – if you sell your house in future the buyer can maintain the pond or turn it back into a swimming pool.
- A pond can make your house a home
- Pond maintenance can become very therapeutic
- Ponds are a great educational resource for kids
- Attract biodiversity to your own backyard.
- The pond can still be used for refreshing ‘dips’ and provide a peaceful reflective place
- Ponds are a very useful educational resource; for example children can use dip nets to collect a wide range of aquatic wildlife.
- Pool to Pond allows people to become custodians of a species of threatened native fish in their pond. (Species such as Rainbow fish and Gudgeons from genetically significant populations have been used in this initiative and have proven to be extremely fecund.)
