Here’s what’s happening at BioNova® Natural Pools North America…
NSP Project in Shohola, Pennsylvania Update and Opening
It has been several months since we last updated you on our NSP project in Shohola, Pennsylvania. The pool is complete but we were there this past week to get the pool and pond open and running.
As a reminder, this project followed the trend in the industry for a desire in a biofilm filtered system with the addition of a planted pond area. This pool is a freeform pool 32.5 feet at its longest and approximately 20 feet at its widest. It includes a tanning shelf and steps and a swim out bench in the deep end. The small ornamental pond is situated right next to the pool. This too is a freeform design and is approximately 21 feet long and 4 feet wide.
The pool has a swimming area of 480 square feet, and in addition to the 78 square feet of the pond is filtered by a 10 tube BF4, set off the deep in of the pool and hydraulically connected with a skimmerklappe.
This past week we were onsite to start up the pool and get the pond filled with water and start it up as well. The pond fills via an equalization line that connects to the pool. The line was left stubbed up last year so that was dug up and plumbed so the pond could fill. Once that was done the suction valve for the pond was dialed in to move about 3 GPM in the pond as it is a slow flow system. Next will be to plant the aquatic plants such as lotus and lilies in the pond.
The pool was cloudy upon start up but should clear in a couple days now that the BF4 is running. This has been another successful install, and we can’t wait to the spring to plant and reopen this NSP.
