While several of these are from Europe, there are companies around the world that specialize in natural pools. But how do these pools stay clean? There are various low-to-zero chlorine options, including a specialized filter containing coated titanium plates and copper and zinc ions by TechnoPure and ozone injectors by DEL Ozone, that reduce the need for chlorine by up to 90%.
