When should I turn my pond pump off for the winter?

• <div><p>When deciding whether or not to turn off your pump, you should consider your area’s climate and the aquatic life in your pond. If you live in an area with freezing winter temperatures and don’t have any wildlife, keeping your pump on could damage it. If you have aquatic life but live in a colder climate, you might consider keeping your pump running and adding a pond heater.</p></div>

Do natural pools attract pests?

• <div><p>While there’s always a possibility that pests will appear in and around a natural swimming pool—much like regular swimming pools—they largely deter pests due to their natural filtration system, which keeps things clean and the water constantly moving.</p></div>

What’s the easiest water feature to maintain?

• <div><p>Smaller, pondless water features like bird baths, self-contained fountains, and bubbling rocks are much lower maintenance than their counterparts that include ponds. Pondless features help you avoid high <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pond-maintenance-cost.htm">pond maintenance costs</a> and allow you to spend more time enjoying the water feature and less time on upkeep.</p></div>

Q: How much water do misters use?

• <div><p>Most home misters use <b>several cups of water</b> in a couple of minutes, or around a <b>gallon per hour of use</b>. That varies greatly depending on the size of the system and the power of the pump. If you are using professional services, you should ask about water use for your planned system when you&rsquo;re getting an estimate. If you are using a water tank, make sure it&rsquo;s filled before operation.</p></div>

• <div><p>While there&rsquo;s always a possibility that pests will appear in and around a natural swimming pool&mdash;much like regular swimming pools&mdash;they largely deter pests due to their natural filtration system, which keeps things clean and the water constantly moving.</p></div>

Q: Is there an alternative to an endless pool?

• <div><p>Yes, many brands make models similar to endless pools with a range of features. Some companies feature temporary aboveground pools that imitate the effect of permanent installations. Small home pool spas&mdash;or spools&mdash;as well as lap pools and pools without propulsion designs for water aerobics are also available.</p></div>
