Convert your pool into a freshwater pool

With less chlorine than household tap water, freshwater in your pool is refreshing and rejuvenating.

Journey Step 0

Why convert your existing pool?

Are you tired of adding salt or chlorine to your pool? Spending too much time managing the pool water chemistry or taking constant trips to your local pool shop?

Have you experienced equipment failure or deterioration due to high salt and chlorine or just don’t want to shower or wash swimwear every time you use the pool?

The freshwater alternative

After many years of swimming in chlorine pools, assuming it was the only option for effectively sanitizing swimming pools, we started to ask, is there a less harmful and better way?

Saltwater pools became popular and the standard opposed to liquid chlorine or tablet feeders. Unfortunately, salt pools still require high salinity content to produce chlorine, the main residual sanitiser in the pool that can cause skin and eye irritation and damage pool equipment, surrounding outdoor furniture, and plants.

We decided it was time to come up with a system that produces clean, soft and pleasant swimming pool water that’s equivalent, if not better than household tap water.

Journey Step 1

Is your swimming pool affecting your asthma and skin allergies?

Sadly, virtually one of every four people suffer when it comes to asthma and skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis. If you currently own a chlorine or salt pool, you’re possibly feeling the irritation of these conditions after swimming.

It doesn’t have to be this way just because you want your family to enjoy the other health and social benefits that having a backyard swimming pool or swim spa can bring.

Discover the benefits

The genuinely healthier alternative is a freshwater system which uses silver and copper to ionize the swimming pool safely and effortlessly without the need for adding chlorine, cyanuric acids and high salt. This is because algae cannot grow in a copper environment, while silver has qualities that are actually good for you while keeping water healthy. These natural minerals remain in the pool to constantly manage the water, keeping the water free from algae, bacteria and other unwanted organisms.

What you’re left with is healthy, rejuvenating, crystal clear water that contains less chlorine than the water from your household tap. Beyond the health benefits, freshwater pool systems are reliable, easy-to-maintain and in the long run, deliver greater cost benefits as they protect the longevity of your pool equipment and surrounds.

Journey Step 2

Will the system work for my pool?

The Naked Systems work on any swimming pool or swim spas and designed for any environment be it cool, hot or tropical, with many installations all across Australia, New Zealand, Asia and now America.

It is also specifically designed to accommodate all pool surfaces, both indoor and outdoor pools, as well as all forms of heating such as solar, electric inverters and gas.

Innovative technology

The equipment setup is no different to any other product on the market and may only require some small plumbing adjustments when either installing the Naked Cell Housing and pH Controller or replacing your existing chlorinator.

The technology used in the Naked System is similar to that used by NASA to clean drinking water and prevent algae growth by utilising copper and silver rather than chlorine. What you’re left with is healthy, rejuvenating, crystal-clear water, which we believe is the ultimate swimming experience.

How is it different to mineral or salt water?

Salt systems create and rely on retaining chlorine in the pool and often the water can have an unpleasant taste.

The Naked Freshwater System also produces traces of chlorine but without the need for it to stay in the water due to copper and silver residuals. The end result is the water has less chlorine than tap water.

Pure and Simple – swimming as nature intended™

Chlorine and high combined with other chemicals used in pools can be dangerous for your family and everything else in your backyard too. They destroy your surrounding garden, kill your grass, and stain and corrode your paving and furniture. However, the water purified by our Freshwater Systems is so pure you can even re-use it to water your garden.

Imagine taking a swim in silky smooth fresh water, no horrible chlorine stench burning your nostrils and eyes, not having to lather your kids in special creams or take showers after having a dip. It’s swimming as mother nature intended, pure and simple.

Journey Step 4

How do I convert my pool?

We ask you to provide us with a water test or consult with your pool technician to best advise next steps to convert your pool. You may need to dilute some of the salt/minerals and other chemicals.

Our ideal water requires only 10-15% of salt compared to chlorinated pools and we do not require stabilizer in the pool water. Diluting the water gives the best possible experience directly after installation but you can let the water and chemicals dilute over time.

Easy installation

If you’re looking to convert your pool from a highly chemical-laden pool to a more environmentally friendly pool that is healthier for you and your loved ones, choose a freshwater pool system. Our freshwater systems can be used to easily upgrade your chlorine or salt pool to a sparkling, crystal clear freshwater oasis.

Your new and improved swimming pool can be modified in one single afternoon, providing you with a more cost-effective, healthier and inviting pool that’s better for the environment.

How does the cost compare?

Naked Systems are comparable after considering the ongoing costs of chlorine, salt and chemicals required for other pools.

On the average sized pool (14,000 gallons) we expect savings anywhere from $600 – $900 per annum. (All pools vary in use, location, environment, temperature, etc).

This biggest return on your investment comes from the freshwater giving much better longevity to pool equipment, surrounds and landscaping.

Whether you’re building a new pool or upgrading an existing one, our intelligent, eco-friendly solutions will have you enjoying fresh, mineral-rich water without the chemical smell, salt taste or harsh effects of chlorine.

Journey Step 7

Can I still use my local pool shop or pool service tech?

Absolutely. We provide you with the resources including water testing bottle, the Naked App and other tools when getting your water tested or pool serviced.

It’s important for others to know when managing your water that you now have a ‘freshwater pool’ and they don’t need all those chemicals or be lugging those large bags of salt out to the car when they’re just not required any longer.

Full installation and ongoing support

It’s not unfamiliar for us to hear a customer has gone to a pool shop to have their water tested and been told they need to spend hundreds of dollars because their pool water is so low in salt, chlorine and other chemicals. Fact is, a Naked Pool doesn’t require these levels that traditional pools do. So it’s important that when using a pool shop or service technician they understand the correct water balance for your pool and that you won’t require half the chemicals or anywhere near the salt of most traditional pools.

The Naked App and other resources provided with the system will help you and your provider have a clear understanding of your pool and you’ll be walking out a light lighter in your arms rather than your wallet.
