Problems with water features
Insufficient filtration - Sufficient filtration
There are headache filtration systems
out there that are a lot of work and
maintenance. We take out pressure and
bead filters all the time and replace them
with a very low maintenance filtration
system. We can filtrate your pond correctly
and the system we install, will produce clear
water with very low mininum maintenance.
Everything works together as a team.
You can have crystal clear water with the
right eco system and filtration. A balanced
pond has a correct eco system with aquatic
plants, rock and gravel in a pond, working
together with your correct filtration system.
Our system is a biofalls filter with pads
and media and a wet well. This system gets
cleaned only once a year in the spring.

You want a low maintenance proffesional system, that is consistant and works properly.
You do not want a insufficient
system that requires a lot of
high maintenance.
A Wet Well -
1/3
Is a area off to one side of the pond on
the opposite side of thewaterfall, that
houses the pump. The wet well area
promotes a lot of filtration, much more
than a skimmer would. Skimmers are
more maintenance and work and has
less filtration than a wet well. We do not
not install skimmers. Wet wells are much
much more affective. The water is
constantly pulling the rock and gravel
producing surface area filtration. The wet
well requires a snorkel pump housing and
in larger projects, a centipede.
Different size models are applied to the size of the water feature

Wetland Bog Filtration
Wetland bog filtration is the most affective way to filtrate a larger pond.
-
The water is pumped up from
the wet well in the pond to the
bottom of the wetland bog.
-
The water flows slowly through the different sized rock and gravel sizes
up through the top of the bog.
-
Aquatic plants purify the water and
balance the wetland and pond.
-
The rock and gravel and aqautic plants develop a echological
system in the bog wetland and produces crystal clear water.
-
The water cascades out of the waterfall designed area and back into the pond.
-
This wetland bog gets cleaned once a year in the spring.
Aquatic plants and stones are the key factors in a wetland bog
