Floating Pond Fountains

Floating Fountains for Pond Aeration

Small ponds are becoming increasingly popular in both residential and commercial areas. These ponds left without aeration, especially during the summer months when nutrient levels increase, can have a population explosion of algae. When this happens, noxious odors are released and fish and plant life die off creating an unsightly scene.

Pond Fountain

An effective way to prevent or remedy this situation is by using a floating pond fountain. The pond fountain circulates water, adding oxygen to your pond. Extra oxygen added to the water promotes healthier fish and an improved ecosystem, while simultaneously clarifying murky discolored pond water. The rugged construction of our fountains perform exceptionally well in all pond conditions, and the vibrant, beautiful shape of our spray patterns create a soothing and visually appealing display.

Knowing a Pond's volume is important!

1) Gallons in a pond will tell you the following:

• Size of Pond Pump needed for your Pond.
• Size of Pond Filter needed for you Pond.
• Approximate number of fish for your Pond.
• How much treatment to apply for either pond clarity issues or fish health.

2) How to calculate approximate number of gallons in an existing pond:

• Volume for rectangular ponds: Avg. width x Avg. Length x x Avg. Depth = Pond Volume (cubic feet) Example: 10ft x 12ft x 2ft = 240 cubic feet. 240 cubic feet x 7.5 gal = 1800 gallons
• Volume for circular ponds: Radius x Radius x 3.14 x depth = Pond Volume (cubic feet)
• Volume of pond can be most accurately calculated by using a water meter that can be connected to a garden hose while initially filling the pond.

   

Electrical Considerations when choosing a Pond or Fountain Pump

Electrical Considerations when choosing a Pond or Fountain Pump

Pro Tip:

How are amps and watts related?

Watts divided by Volts = Amps
Amps x Volts = Watts

Example:
345 Watts divided by 115 Volts = 3 Amps
3 Amps x 115 Volts = 345 Watts

Installing a Pond Pump

Pro Tip:

 

Pump Installation

Locate the pond pump as close to the source as possible. it is best to have your main (longest) run of pipe on the discharge side of the pump.

Flooded Suction

Install the pond pump out side the pond, and below the surface level of the pond to create a flooded suction. This will help ensure a proper and consistent supply of water to the pump. The pump will not operate properly and may be damaged if the water supply is not constant.

A flooded suction may be returned with a supply line that runs up and over the pond wall and back down below the water surface, as long as all air has been removed from the line.

Non-Flooded Suction

If installation of a flooded suction is not possible, the following is recommended: Position the pond pump as low as possible and as near the source as possible. Install a priming pot on the [um[ inlet. Install a foot valve or a check valve in the inlet below the water level. A;ways prime the entire inlet line, priming pot, and pump before turning it on. DO NOT RUN PUMP DRY!

These suggestions may help you avoid most common installation problems.

Pond Vac

This pond vac is a niffty device. It really works, and for the price it is a great deal.

It is a simple system which uses the water pressure from a
standard garden hose to create a suction and vacuum the muck.

The muck and waste is vacuumed up the telescopic pole and discharged to waste right out the end of the discharge hose, which we provide. You can allow it to go into a bucket, or right onto the lawn, garden or a deck drain.

No water goes into the pond. The water is used purely for
creating the suction. However, some water will be displaced from the pond, along with the muck and waste. It will definitely lower the water level.

The higher the water pressure the better the system will
operate as far as sucking up small pebbles and leaves.

The Muck Vac eliminates muck and fish waste without causing turbidity in pond water or displacing fish or plants. Complete system includes: Muck Vac power head, vac head and brush, vacuum hose and adapter. Easy to use and assemble. No moving parts. Requires minimum of 50 psi garden hose water pressure.

The telescoping 6' handle carries the waste water and debris out thru the 10' discharge hose to a bucket or garden area. No water is added to the pond via the Muck Vac.
