I wanted to put in a drain, to make it easier to clean, but will wait for now. It is a good idea to plan well for a bottom drain when you do decide to replace the liner. I buried my filter barrels and can't drain them, but have to use a shop vac to clean them. OTOH my pond bottom drain is gravity flow through the filters and pumped from the third barrel. Most of us in this part of Georgia don't have our ponds on a nice hill that would allow draining everything by gravity flow, but that is a nice feature, if it is practical for you. Gravity drain is what I would do, because my pond is above ground with a rock wall exterior, also it is higher because our back yard slopes to the rear slightly and it is fairly close to the house. Never will I build a pond without a drain. Sheila |
