Water Gardening 101
|
|
A primary focus of our company is educating people about the wonderful world of water gardening. We will answer customer questions in each month's newsletter, if you have questions to submit please send them to info@truepump.com.
"Is it a leak or only evaporation?"
We receive many calls from customers trying to determine if their water loss is from evaporation or a leak. Every pond is different but it is possible for a pond to lose 1/4" to 1/2" per day during the hot summer months. Sun exposure, size and height of waterfalls along with many other factors make each water feature unique. If you're experiencing water losses exceeding 1/2" per day you should investigate for leaks or call one of our Certified Aquascape Contractors for assistance.
For further information or questions please stop by our store, email us or give us a call at 303.744.3505.
