Water Flow in the Winter
I spent some time earlier today trimming back spent lily pads and getting
things cleaned up for fall. I have a 3,000 gph pump that I leave running all winter through my biofalls filter. Live in central Arkansas where the winters can get cold but the pond rarely freezes all the way over. I was thinking about switching to a lower flow water pump for the winter season to save a little money and avoid super chilling the water on those coldest days. The main purpose for me running water through the winter would be to keep the bacteria alive in the filter and prevent the filter basin from freezing solid and cracking, right? Does anyone do this? Got any suggestions for me? TIA JB |
