Fact #1. One of the main reasons most people decide to add a pond to their outdoor space is because of the visual appeal. A pond can instantly enhance any outdoor space. Features such as rock borders, waterfalls, and brightly colored fish can be eye-catching. Plus, it allows you to grow a range of new plants and flowers.
Fact #2. It's no secret that curb appeal can increase a property's resale value. Having a visually appealing outdoor space in the backyard can have the same effect. A well laid out and manicured backyard with a properly installed and self-maintaining pond can enhance the appeal of your house. Water features can also provide one with a sense of peace and tranquility.
Fact #3. There are three important factors to take into account when picking a pond pump. First is the total gallons of water in the pond. Second, the total dynamic head pressure. Third, the spillway width. Picking one that is too small for any of these needs can result insufficient circulation causing low oxygen levels, pools of stagnant water, and unhealthy living conditions for fish.
Fact #4. It's recommended that whatever option you choose should be able to circulate all of the water in the pond at least once every two hours. If the device isn't rated to circulate all of your pond's water at least this quickly, you should go with a larger model.
Fact #5. Building a pond is an uncomplicated endeavor that the average homeowner can accomplish on their own. It just takes a bit of time, sweat, and determination. Before you start digging your pond, call your local city department. They may need to come out and check for any underground gas, water, or electric lines. Many cities have a "call before you dig" policy.
