We are proud to install the
lowest maintenance water features available to all of our
customers. A typical owner of one of our installations will
spend approximately 10 minutes per week on routine
maintenance.
 The
ponds we install are natural ponds…..no chemicals, no UV
lights……just Mother Nature balancing this man made
Eco-system. In nature, the spring rains and thawing of
winter snow serve to “flush out” the ponds and lakes. Since
our ponds are self contained in a rubber liner, we do a
complete spring clean out to simulate the cleaning done in
nature.
A
spring clean out consists of the following:
1. Pump
water from the pond into our holding tanks
2. Remove the fish and place in the holding tanks
3. Completely drain the pond
4. Trim all plants (divide plants if requested)
5. Remove leaves and debris from the pond
6. Pressure wash pond walls
7. Pressure wash waterfall stones
8. Rinse stream bed (if applicable) |

control of parasites
18. Add Mela-Fix (if requested) – has a mixture of
aloha vera and is recommended for use after fish are
netted and handled

off and re-start the pump for the pond. If requested, the
cleaning crew can wait on site and/or return later in the
day to re-start the pond (additional cost will apply).
