I have the answer to reducing evaporation
Hi Matt,
Thanks for the questions. The membrane is O2 and CO2 permeable. It reduces evaporation of water molecules. You are correct that evaporation reduction probably will not occur in your waterfall and it definitely wont when your water is blown into the air if you have a fountain. Any moving water that is over 2-3 miles per hour will not be protected. However, most waterfalls enter into one side of the pond. At the point where the water would flow down and penetrate through the surface there would be no protection, because as you state the surface is disrupted by a lot of force. What would be protected is the rest of the pond. So if your pond was say 20 square feet and the waterfall disrupted 2 square feet when it re-entered, you'd still have protection on the remaining 18 square feet. Remember, evaporation is based on water surface area. It smoothes waves from the wind by reducing surface tension. So to visualize it think about the wind blowing over your water surface and slipping over it opposed to pulling it and forming a wave. The product is non-toxic and bio-degradable and has no impact to the eco-system. We don't have an independent analysis but that's a good idea, thanks. Evaporation reduction is up to 40%. To me at least, $9.99 for 40% less topoffs is worth it. Remember, this product is not meant to be placed into your pond and totally eliminate all water maintenance. It is meant to reduce it and give you more time to enjoy your fish. Sam "MattR" wrote in message ... You'll have to prove to me that this isn't complete noise. If it prevents water from evaporating does it also prevent carbon dioxide from evaporating? Does it prevent oxygen from entering the water? Most evaporation probably comes from the same mechanism that aerates the water (a water fall in my case) so how will this prevent water evaporation in water falls? Not to mention that the water falls will just continually rip it apart on the pond's surface. If it's only one molecule thick and anything can poke through it, how will it smooth out waves from the wind? Can you show me how much it will reduce evaporation? Show me some independent analysis, not to mention what it does to the ecosystem... How will your product even out pond temperature? Evaporation cools a pond during the day when there's more sun and heat than at night. Sounds to me like your product will only keep the temperature higher, not more even. And about your "fish happy meter", based on the number of babies in my pond, they're having too much fun as it is.

I just wanted to post a message letting you all know of a new product my company has come out with which reduces evaporation. Evaporation as you all know causes countless top offs and as a few people here have posted, sometimes death when we forget to turn the hose off. If you're a ponder with aquariums you know that evaporation raises humidity and adds a certain smell to the room. Evaporation is also responsible for countless other problems that we generally don't associate it with. The product is called "NO EVAPORATION!" and is available online for purchase. It's pretty reasonable at $9.99 for a 30 week supply for ponds and 100+ week supply for aquariums. For a limited time first time buyers can get a bottle for free at our online store. It should also be available at your local pet stores in the coming weeks. You can order the product (or free bottle) or get more information by going to our website at http://www.noevaporation.com If you have any questions please let me know! Sam |
