Winterizing your Pond

Equipment

Disconnect and thoroughly clean all the equipment in your pond. The pump, filter systems and UV sterilizers. Let them air dry before storing in your shed or garage.

Some people like to keep their pumps and waterfalls running all through the winter, but if you have fish, do not leave the pump running. It will disturb the warmer water at the bottom of the pond making it colder and could kill your hibernating fish.
