How to make a reservoir on the site
In modern landscape design, various modifications of biological reservoirs are increasingly found. These structures look very nice on the garden plot and you can cool down in them on hot summer days. The water in the reservoir always remains clean, and this does not require the use of various kinds of chemicals.
Bio-reservoirs are laid out in two levels. The shallower islands are for plants, while the deeper ones are suitable for swimming. At the same time, the shallow zone is a kind of treatment facility, which, moreover, pleases the eye with its freshness. The water garden is made up of plants that feed on organic matter. In the area of the cleansing plateau, special microorganisms can be placed, which will additionally purify the water in the pool.
There are various options for the bioplato device. If you combine the cleaning area with the bathing area, you get a beautiful natural pond with thickets. By dividing the two parts, you can get separate bodies of water.
The ideal ratio of cleansing space to bathing area is fifty to fifty. In this case, the water in the reservoir will always be clean and suitable for bathing. If you have a large area, you can make a cascade structure with ducts in which the water will be saturated with oxygen. The reservoir will turn into a kind of ecosystem with its own cleaning system.
It is best not to do such a structure with a water treatment system among trees, as falling leaves will contribute to water pollution and the appearance of unwanted algae. Beauty will be short-lived and cleaning will take a long time.
For a device of this type of reservoir, it is not required to choose a flat surface, since it is based on the movement of water from one zone to another.
Such a reservoir differs from the natural one in special comfort. A plastic bowl is mounted in the finished pit, the bottom of which is covered with sand or pebbles for greater naturalness and safety. In the areas of the clearing plateau, the formation of silt is necessary for the plants to develop correctly.
It is imperative to install mechanical filters and a pump in the reservoir, which will work constantly, since the water circulation must not be disturbed. The water must be constantly saturated with oxygen so that the flowering process does not begin. Good waterproofing is also needed to avoid the ingress of groundwater that will disrupt the ecosystem..
It will take about three months to build such a structure. Only after that all elements will function normally..
