The Art and Science of Pool Design

Building Pools for the Future

Michael Schilling: The best Living Water solutions are sustainable, low-maintenance pools fed by natural, healthy water—protecting both our wellbeing and the environment. Pools powered by natural water deliver exceptional benefits: minimal energy consumption, zero additives, simple system maintenance, and sustainable irrigation for surrounding landscapes. Crystal-clear water without chemicals. Through continuous circulation across the entire water surface and optimal oxygen levels, we achieve water of genuine natural purity—found only in the earth's natural springs. Living Water maintains perfectly balanced biological parameters, creating an ideal natural bathing environment that requires no testing or chemical treatments.

What's Essential When Planning Your Pool?

Pool coatings are fundamental to long-term enjoyment and durability. Our Compass pools feature a completely sealed, non-porous, seamless surface that ensures maximum hygiene and virtually effortless maintenance. Self-cleaning and automated cover systems further enhance both convenience and performance.

How Does a Pool Compare to a Natural Pond?

Pools and natural ponds serve different purposes. Natural ponds require plant and regeneration zones, which demand intensive upkeep. Additionally, they cannot be covered—a limitation that increases energy consumption, maintenance burden, and safety concerns.

Beyond Swimming: What Fitness Options Does a Pool Offer?

A wealth of equipment—from water turbines and cascade showers to counter-current systems and water bikes—transforms your pool into a fitness sanctuary. Water-based training delivers powerful results while remaining exceptionally gentle on the body.
