Should you leave your pond fountain on all winter?
In Michigan, winter means freezing temperatures, ice and plenty of opportunity for water to freeze inside your fountain.
If your pond freezes solid, water left inside the fountain and plumbing can freeze, expand and potentially damage pipes, housing and other components.
That’s why fall is the time to winterize your fountain.
Our team can help with:
• Fountain removal
• Draining and winter preparation
• Cleaning and inspection
• Repairs and maintenance
• Proper winter storage
And if you want to keep an area of your pond open through winter, a pond deicer may be worth considering, depending on your pond and its size.
Don't wait until the pond is frozen to think about your fountain.
Protect your equipment now and give yourself a much easier start next spring.
