Core Benefits

The benefits of a natural pool from Aquascape™

1. Minimized maintenance

Perfect flows carry debris from the water surface to a single location before anything sinks to the bottom and contributes to eutrophication.

2. No chemicals

Effective natural filtration keeps the water nutrient-poor, preventing uncontrolled algal blooms.

3. No building permit required

Since the Aquascape Ecosystem blends into the surroundings, no building permit is needed for pools with a maximum height of under 50 cm.

How it works.

The pool that lets nature do the work

With over 30 years of experience, the Aquascape Ecosystem is the world's most proven and popular system for natural pools.

By mimicking natural processes, nitrogen and other nutrients are effectively absorbed by aquatic plants before algae can establish.

  • check_smallOpens the water surface
  • check_smallPrevents algal blooms
  • check_smallPromotes long-term balance

The entire system is powered by powerful, whisper-quiet pumps.

The process

Here’s how it works

Step 1: mechanical filtration

Keeping a natural pool clear at depth starts at the surface.

The Intake Bay/Negative Edge draws in floating debris and leaves to a shallow area where it can be easily removed from the water.

This minimizes the risk of organic waste sinking to the bottom and contributing to eutrophication.

Through various layers of stone, particles are captured on their way to the biological filtration system.

Step 2: biological filtration

The purification process inspired by natural wetlands.

As the water rises through the filter, the smallest particles are captured while the plant roots are fed with nitrate and phosphorus, starving the algae.

The water then continues through the stream to the waterfall.

Step 3: movement and oxygenation

Natural movement and oxygenation complete the cycle.

The water is oxygenated on its way back through streams and waterfalls, creating conditions for beneficial bacteria that break down organic material.

Strategic water jets contribute to further movement, preventing warmer surface water with dead zones where algae can take hold.

The proof is natural pools that are more beautiful today than when they were built over 30 years ago.

The Result

This is what you can avoid:

1. No irritating chemicals

Unlike traditional pools, there is no need to measure or dose irritating chemicals.

2. No expensive filter changes

Unlike other natural systems, there is no need for regular replacement of expensive phosphorus filters.

3. No tedious algae scooping

Unlike many DIY natural pools, the Aquascape Ecosystem is designed to counteract recurring algae blooms and gradual eutrophication.

4. No draining or refilling needed

The system is designed to withstand the Scandinavian winter, so you don't have to start over with a new ecosystem every year. Each season begins where the last one ended, reducing maintenance over time.

Chlorine-free natural pool with Aquascape system
Trusted worldwide. Loved by millions.

Aquascape Ecosystem natural pool – the original preferred by millions

Aquascape was founded in 1991 after a successful pond project in Greg Wittstock's backyard in the 80s. Today, Aquascape is a world leader in natural water environments.

Together with Ed Beaulieu and Brian Helfrich, the company has paved the way for sustainable pond, pool, and stormwater solutions based on natural ecosystems. Systems that always combine ecology, function, and beauty without compromise.

Aquascape's proven technology and global network of certified contractors make the company the gold standard for natural water systems that fit anywhere – from private gardens to luxury resorts and municipal water solutions.

The system that started in Greg Wittstock's backyard is now found with celebrities like Shaquille O'Neal.

You may have seen them on YouTube, transforming ordinary gardens into living works of art.

For those seeking a water system that both looks and functions as nature intended, the Aquascape Ecosystem is a proven path. The philosophy is simple: work with nature instead of trying to tame it.

Frequently asked questions

What types of water environments do you install? keyboard_arrow_down

We work with many types of high-quality and environmentally friendly water environments, including natural pools, koi ponds, waterfalls, fountains, streams, and water storage solutions.

Each design is customized to your space, lifestyle, and aesthetic preferences.

How do Faunapoolen's water environments work? keyboard_arrow_down

Our water environments are based on a recirculating system where the water constantly moves through biological and mechanical filtration. This reduces both waste and maintenance — while providing you with clear, fresh water year-round. We use Aquascape's ecosystem, a proven method that mimics nature's own cycle. The result is a beautiful water environment completely free of harsh chemicals.

How much space do I need for a water environment? keyboard_arrow_down

Will the water environment work in my local environment? keyboard_arrow_down

Yes! Every water environment is designed for your property and its surroundings. We consider the site's conditions, appearance, and function to create a design that harmonizes with your garden.

How do I choose the right water environment for my garden? keyboard_arrow_down

Choosing the right water environment depends on how large an area you have, what expression you want, and how much maintenance you want.

Do I need a large garden to install a water environment? keyboard_arrow_down

Not at all! Water environments come in various sizes and styles to fit all spaces. If you have a small patio, courtyard, or even a balcony, a bubbling stone fountain or a mini pond could be a perfect solution.

Can I customize the design of my water environment? keyboard_arrow_down

Yes! Every water environment can be customized to your style and your plot. From natural stone and custom waterfalls to integrated LED lighting and water plants – your water environment can be as personal as your outdoor space. Whether you prefer a modern and sleek design or a natural and wildlife-friendly ecosystem, we work with Aquascape's sustainable products to create a water environment that follows your vision.

Will my water environment improve over time? keyboard_arrow_down

Yes! A well-designed water environment develops beautifully over time as aquatic plants establish themselves, beneficial bacteria balance the ecosystem, and a natural patina enhances stone and wood. Over time, the water environment attracts more wildlife and creates a vibrant habitat that only gets better with the years.

Where are you located? keyboard_arrow_down

We are based in Sweden and work with customers across the country. Please contact us to see if we can assist in your area.

Do you work on projects in other EU countries? keyboard_arrow_down

Our goal is to create a cohesive outdoor environment that complements your water environment and highlights the natural beauty of your property.

How much does a water environment cost? keyboard_arrow_down

The price varies depending on size, material choices, and the complexity of the project. Smaller water environments, such as fountains or pondless waterfalls, are often more budget-friendly, while larger ponds or custom-designed natural pools require a larger investment.

Do you charge a fee for consultations? keyboard_arrow_down

Phone consultation: No fee. We offer a free initial phone consultation to discuss your project, answer questions, and provide general guidance.

Are water installations maintenance-intensive? keyboard_arrow_down

Not at all! Water installations with Aquascape's filtration systems are designed to require minimal maintenance thanks to natural filtration. Routine care consists of removing leaves and debris, checking water levels, and performing seasonal maintenance.

We also offer maintenance and cleaning services to keep your water environment in top condition.

Do I need to keep my water installation running year-round? keyboard_arrow_down

You can choose whether to keep the water installation running all year or shut it down during the winter. Many appreciate the beautiful ice formations that occur during the cold months. If you prefer to shut it down, we are happy to assist you with proper winter preparation.

Do you service water installations that were not built by Faunapoolen? keyboard_arrow_down

Yes! We offer maintenance, repairs, and upgrades for water installations – regardless of who built them.

Whether you need a seasonal cleaning, improved filtration, leak detection, or a complete renovation, our team can help ensure your water installation operates optimally and looks fantastic.
