It's common for swimming pools to change water every 6 months, or even a year. The swimming pool we used for our Physical Education Class in College changed every six months and they will just treat the water with Chlorine or some algae control etc.
Would you believe that spring resorts in my town change the water everyday? It's a fresh spring water which is abundant in our place. While everyone talks of water conservation in some areas, here water are just flushed out every night in big volume

@nela13 the local government charge only 200 dollars for the annual fee. Our town has a very rich spring water supply from natural source.

That's has been their practice ever since, they clean the pool everyday, drain the water and fill it.

@florelway Oh, my.
From now on, we will just patronize the hot and the cold spring resorts because they have flowing water.

Yes, or if they do not do this, no one will patronize the resorts.

If they are using fresh spring water it would HAVE to be replaced every day, otherwise, they would have to treat it with chemicals to keep it clean. If the water is not treated it just goes back into the environment's water cycle (which has its own means of purification). That probably a healthier and more environmentally friendly way to handle water than a chemically treated swimming pool.

Yes, water is cheaper than buying chemicals they only pay 10,000 or US$200. annual fee to the local government.
