Outdoor thermostat and pond heater

Management is concerned that the goldfish in the pond are, as last year, going to die if the pond is frozen over for anything more than a few hours, so it looks as though I need a heater, a thermostat to turn the heater on when the temperature drops to ~0șC, and an outdoor socket. Toolstation do a suitable socket (http://www.toolstation.com/shop/p77440), Seapets sell a heater (http://www.seapets.co.uk/products/po...ef=googlebase), but I can't find a thermostat. Anyone able to suggest a source for the thermostat? Comments on the socket and heater would also be welcome. Thanks for the contributions and suggestions. I have installed the socket from Toolstation and the Blagdon heater. Following comments here and elsewhere about the value of a waterfall in cold conditions, we're thinking of installing one (only short, ~1M long). Has anyone any suggestions on a suitable pump and pre-formed waterfall? The pond is 2M x 1.5M x 0.75M deep. Suggestions on any associated equipment that would eliminate/reduce the green pea soup we currently experience in summer would also be welcome, along with suggestions for suppliers. The Seapets experience was less than inspiring with telephone requests for advice being met with great vagueness and emails being ignored. -- F |
