Aquairis Water Systems

Aquairis is a modular water system that can be easily adapted to any location. The concept was developed by Virbela Ateljé and brings together 40 years of experience and knowledge of the design and construction of aesthetic and living water systems.

  • Modular system solution with plant-based biobeds, ponds, circulation, and oxygenation.
  • Always uniquely adapted to the property's conditions and functional requirements.
  • Benefits local biodiversity, microlife, insects, birds, and other living organisms.

Basics

  • Aquairis consists of a water reservoir (tank or pond) and one or more biobeds, together with a circulation pump that enables the water to flow through the system.
  • Combined technical solution that carries an ecological living system
  • Basic design with standard technical components
  • Special functions with UV filter, automatic water filling, and water exchange.

The same basic design regardless of size — be it a household garden, urban wetland, or park. The circulation and oxygenation create the conditions for microlife and plants in the purifying biobeds.

Modules

  • Wetland and reed beds with plants
  • Ponds with water mirrors
  • Hidden tanks and water reservoirs
  • Circulation functions with low-energy pump technology
  • Water stairs
  • Irrigation functions
Biodiversity and ecosystem services

Water is a resource, when we collect rainwater and grey-water in an area, biodiversity is automatically strengthened. Even small constructed wetlands benefit local resilience.

Fresh and living water contributes to several ecosystem services. Birds can swim and insects quench their thirst. Improves microclimate with a temperature-balancing effect. Water supply is an essential basic security that society depends on. Without water, no life, it is actually that simple.

Aquairis was developed by Virbela Ateljé and is based on the knowledge and experience of Nigel Wells together with the employees who have worked at the company over the years.
