Pond
  • chevron_rightWhy do the pond fountains keep breaking down?
    Pond fountains are expensive and have multiple major parts.
     
    The fountain itself has a motor that runs most of the day throughout most of the year. It can experience issues with pond debris (sticks, dead animals, and fishing line), water tight gasket issues, and time. 
     
    The power cords can go bad over time because they lay on the bottom of the pond. The board added muskrat protection on the power cords to prevent them from being chewed on. 
     
    Finally, pond fountains have a computer control board that can go bad. 
     
    With all of these potential issues and more, pond fountains tend to experience issues a few times a year. 
  • chevron_rightWhy do the ponds have algae?

    There are currently over 30,000 species of algae thriving on earth today.

    Algae will grow as long as temperature, nutrients and sunlight are sufficient. We call these regenerations an algae “bloom”. Algae blooms may happen any time and are unpredictable. Blooms are common throughout the summer months and some are more severe than others. We do the absolute best to combat these blooms quickly. Most occasions we are able to catch blooms before they become problematic. Some ponds produce algae so quickly that it may surface a few days before our scheduled visit... There is simply no way to prevent algae from growing.

    Algae is generally first noticed when it reaches the surface. It is the primary detractor from the enjoyment of a pond or lake. An owner of a pond lot can go to bed Monday night and wake up Tuesday morning to a pond covered in algae. It is often thought that giant rings or mats of algae on a pond indicate that something isn’t being done properly. This might be true in some cases, but giant and multiple blooms of algae are common and cannot be prevented.

    Planktonic Algae... Have you noticed the ugly green milky look or a slight odor? This is a natural occurrence that can happen on some ponds, but once the Planktonic Algae burns through the excessive nutrients in the pond or the weather changes it should subside. We have been advised that it is best to let it run its course.

    This is very common due to the high heat we have had this time of year. Our ponds get professionally tested and serviced weekly.
