Circular Water Use: Inside AquaNat’Our’s Bremag System for 80% Pool‑Water Recycling

If you’ve ever wondered how a modern pool can stay crystal‑clear while protecting natural resources, you’re in the right place. At AquaNat’Our, Circular Water Use isn’t a buzzword—it’s a daily practice. With a modern Bremag system that recycles up to 80% of pool water that would otherwise go to the sewer, we conserve water without compromising your swim. Here’s how it works, why it matters, and how you can play a part when you visit.

Quick answer: How much pool water does AquaNat’Our recycle?

• Up to 80% of pool water is recycled using a modern Bremag system, significantly reducing the volume that would otherwise be discharged to the sewer.

What is Circular Water Use?

Circular Water Use means keeping water in productive circulation for as long as possible by treating, reusing, and returning it to the system—rather than constantly drawing new water and discarding used water. In a pool environment, circularity aims to:

• Minimize freshwater consumption
• Reduce wastewater discharge
• Maintain consistent water quality and guest comfort

This closed‑loop mindset aligns with broader sustainability goals and ensures that recreation and resource stewardship go hand in hand.

How AquaNat’Our’s Bremag system closes the loop

AquaNat’Our uses a modern Bremag system to recycle 80% of pool water that would otherwise go to the sewer. While the underlying engineering is sophisticated, the core idea is simple: treat water efficiently so it can be safely reused in the pool circuit.

Typical steps in modern pool‑water recycling systems

Although each facility’s setup is unique, most advanced pool‑water recycling systems combine several proven methods to maintain clarity and hygiene while reducing waste:

1. Mechanical filtration
   • Captures visible particles such as dust and debris through filter media.
2. Fine filtration/polishing
   • Further reduces tiny particulates that can cloud water.
3. Disinfection
   • Maintains microbiological safety through controlled chlorination and contact time.
4. Water quality monitoring
   • Continuously checks key parameters so staff can adjust treatment promptly.
5. Targeted water replacement
   • Replenishes only what’s necessary to keep chemistry balanced and guests comfortable.
6. Efficient backwash management (common in circular setups)
   • Instead of sending all backwash water to the sewer, specialized modules can treat suitable fractions so a high percentage returns to the system.

At AquaNat’Our, the Bremag approach enables a high level of water reuse (80%), meaning less freshwater input and less wastewater output—while maintaining a safe, enjoyable swim.

Why 80% pool‑water recycling matters—to you and to the environment

For guests

• Consistent comfort: Stable water conditions support a pleasant swim experience throughout the day.
• Responsible recreation: You can enjoy the pool knowing your visit supports resource conservation.

For the environment

• Water conservation: Recycling 80% of pool water meaningfully reduces freshwater demand.
• Lower wastewater volumes: Less discharge to the sewer means less burden on downstream systems.

For resilient operations

• Resource efficiency: A circular system uses modern treatment to do more with less, helping safeguard service quality even as environmental expectations rise.

Part of a broader sustainability strategy at AquaNat’Our

Our circular water model is one pillar of a wider, on‑site sustainability program designed to reduce environmental impact while enhancing visitor wellbeing.

• Biogas heating: Our pool and utility water are environmentally heated with biogas, produced on‑site at Parc Hosingen using organic waste from local farmers.
• Eco‑friendly products: We use ecological materials and cleaning agents and have converted our chlorine system to salt tablets instead of chlorine granules.
• Energy‑saving measures: We employ water‑saving shower heads from Illé, energy‑efficient LED lighting, and motion detectors to save power and optimize resource use.
• Waste management: We minimize waste through microfiber towels in the fitness area, careful waste separation, and cooperation with regional recycling companies.

Together, these actions create a consistent, practical framework for sustainability—spanning energy, water, products, and waste.

Water quality and safety: what you should know

Water recycling does not mean compromising on health or hygiene. In a well‑run aquatic facility, water is continuously filtered, disinfected, and monitored so it remains safe and comfortable for swimmers.

• Disinfection: Pools maintain an appropriate disinfectant level to control pathogens.
• Continuous treatment: Filtration and circulation work together to remove impurities and maintain clarity.
• Operational oversight: Trained staff monitor water quality and adjust treatment as needed.

Bottom line: circular does not mean less clean—it means treating water smartly so less of it is wasted.

Visitor FAQs about circular water use

Does recycling 80% of pool water affect cleanliness?

No. Recycled water is treated through filtration and disinfection before reuse. Cleanliness and safety remain priorities.

Will I notice any difference when swimming?

Likely not. The goal of circular water use is to deliver the same or better guest experience while cutting waste behind the scenes.

How does this help the local environment?

By recycling 80% of pool water, we conserve freshwater and reduce wastewater—tangible benefits for local resources.

How does this fit with other sustainable actions on site?

It works alongside biogas heating, energy‑saving technologies, eco‑friendly products, and sustainable waste management to reduce overall impact.

Practical ways you can help when you visit

Small actions from guests make circular systems work even better. Try these simple steps:

• Rinse before you swim: A quick shower reduces lotions, sweat, and cosmetics that water treatment must remove.
• Use appropriate swimwear: Proper swim attire helps keep fibers and external dirt out of the water.
• Follow staff guidance: Pool teams monitor conditions and may adjust access to certain areas for smooth operations.
• Dispose of waste correctly: Use the right bins and avoid littering to keep facilities clean and efficient.
• Plan family time thoughtfully: For infants and toddlers, use suitable swim diapers to support hygiene.

Each of these habits helps maintain water quality, reduce treatment loads, and strengthen the impact of our circular system.
