Default Cold water

Well, I bought a heater for the pond. The pond is a combined 165 gallons with
four 12" comets. The water dropped to 45oF last night, not much warmer today.
We are pretty cold for Texas.

Anyway, the fish are huddling at the bottom, moving very little, but look fine.

Here is the question:

Would the pond stay a bit warmer if we do two things; remove the water globe
feature, and stop the waterfall feature from the other pond. By the other pond,
I mean the 30 gallon part where the water drips into the 135 gallon tank. It
was my thought that putting the water into the air via the water globe (bell or
whatever they call it) the warmth is being totally lost in the cold air.

I just want what's best for the fish.
