What are the common signs that my pond or fountain needs cleaning?

Wondering if it's time to give your pond or fountain a good clean? Here are some common signs that might mean it's time for a service from First State Ponds:

Cloudy or Dirty Water: If your pond or fountain water is looking a bit murky or discolored, it's often a sign that it's time for a cleanup. Clear, sparkling water is key to keeping your feature looking great.
Algae Overgrowth: Notice green or slimy algae taking over? Algae can quickly make your pond or fountain look unappealing. Regular cleanings help keep algae in check and your water clear.
Debris Accumulation: Are there leaves, twigs, or other debris piling up at the bottom or around the fountain? This can block filters and affect water flow, so it's a good idea to clear it out.
Unpleasant Smells: If you catch a whiff of something unpleasant from your water feature, it could be due to decaying organic matter. Cleaning helps remove these sources of odor and keeps everything smelling fresh.
Equipment Issues: If your pump or filter isn't working as well as it should, it might be clogged. Regular cleaning ensures these components work efficiently and last longer.Spot any of these signs? Give First State Ponds a shout, and we'll get your pond or fountain back in tip-top shape!
