Here’s what’s happening at BioNova® Natural Pools North America…
Another Webinar Success
BioNova® Natural Pools is pleased to announce the successful completion of another LA CES approved webinar, Introduction to Natural Swimming Pools: Sustainable Design Principles and Biological Filtration (Course #101), held live this past Thursday, May 28, 2026.
The webinar was well attended with over 88 registrants which brought together landscape architects and design professionals. Attendees gained practical insights into how natural pools promote public health, environmental stewardship, and biodiversity, while offering clients a beautiful, resilient alternative to traditional chlorinated pools. The strong engagement and thoughtful questions throughout the webinar highlighted a growing interest in nature-based solutions within the landscape architecture community.
In addition, attendees were awarded 1.5 Professional Development Hours (PDH) under the Landscape Architecture Continuing Education System which also covered Heath, Safety, and Welfare (HSW).
If you missed our Introduction to Natural Swimming Pools: Sustainable Design Principles and Biological Filtration (Course #101) webinar, we will be offering more courses and will update you once the dates are set.
We will also be conducting more of our second course, NSP 201: Overview of Regeneration Zones, Plants, Hydraulics & Costs.
NSP 201 provides a comprehensive introduction to the essential components that make natural swimming pools function efficiently and beautifully. This course explores the science and design principles behind regeneration zones, aquatic plant selection, hydraulic systems, and project cost considerations. Highly encouraged to take NSP 101 as a prerequisite.
Learning Objectives:
- Understanding aquatic and marginal plant selection for water clarity and ecosystem balance
- Fundamentals of hydraulic design, including circulation and oxygenation principles
- How hydraulics impact overall system performance and water quality
- Key budgeting considerations for natural swimming pool projects
- Review of installation costs, maintenance requirements, and lifecycle value
- Foundational knowledge for discussing, designing, and estimating natural swimming pool projects
We thank everyone who joined us and helped make this course a success.

Stay Safe and Healthy.
We hope you all continue to stay healthy during these trying times and wish all of our BioNova® Dealers our best to you and your families.
