Get matched with top fountain pros in Grayville, IL

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.

Pond water should be changed approximately once a week. When you change it, change around 10% to15% of the water. It’s important to monitor the quality of your pond water as this will determine if it needs to be changed more often, or if you should be changing more or less than 15% of it when you do so.

Consider the pros and cons of installing a water fountain in your backyard:

Pros

• Fountains can add beauty to your backyard.

• Creates a relaxing space to enjoy in your yard. 

• Water features can add more value to your home.

Cons

• Regular maintenance is necessary.

• Upfront and maintenance costs can escalate quickly.

• Space may not permit you to install the fountain you want.

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 pond maintenance costs and allow you to spend more time enjoying the water feature and less time on upkeep.
