Q: How often do you need to clean a koi pond?

• <div><p>Deep clean your koi pond at least once a year to keep your fish healthy and your pond in good shape. Water testing, debris removal, and partial water changes should be performed weekly. Seasonal professional service will ensure everything is clean and functioning properly.</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>

Q: What are some creative ideas for repurposing the area where the pool was?

• <div><p>After you fill in your pool, you can add trees and plants that help stabilize the soil. You might decide not to fill it in at all and find another use for the sunken area instead. A few ideas include creating a seating area or garden inside the empty pool. Depending on its size, you could create a place to roller-skate or install basketball hoops for an unconventional court. </p></div>

Q: How do I stop algae from growing in my misters?

• <div><p>Algae growth is a common issue for misters, but you can do several things to prevent it. First, use a sealed water tank with distilled or filtered water to fuel your misters. Second, blow out the misters after every use so no water is left in the tubing. Third, thoroughly clean the misting system every several weeks of use at minimum during the warmest months. Third, wherever possible positioning tubing and the water tank away from direct sunlight and in the coolest areas possible.</p></div>

Dan and his team did an amazing job remodeling our bathroom. They were communicative, professional, friendly, and flexible with our schedule. Not only did they make the bathroom look great, but they fixed some issues we’ve had since we bought our house. We would recommend them to anyone!

"Arnone Bros was excellent from the start. They were prompt in contacting me and providing an honest and fair estimate. They provided lawn care and maintenance the entire season and did an awesome job at VERY fair price. I've already hired them to do additional projects around the house including gutters and a new roof. I can't say enough good things about them, it has been a relief to finally find a contractor you can trust and rely on! They will be my contractor of choice going forward! If you are looking for an honest and fair contractor that provides an excellent product I highly recommend Arnone Bros."
