Bottom Drains
Bottom Drains
Bottom drains filter out the waste from fish that collect on the bottom of your pond. Many of these forms of waste give off harmful toxins that pollute the water, deoxygenating it and eventually harming, if not killing, any other pondlife that relies on the oxygen in the water to breathe. With a bottom drain, you can ensure waste doesn't build up and your prize Koi remains healthy. A Koi pond should be as maintenance free as possible, so when planning the location of your bottom drains keep in mind that they will only draw from a radius of 4 to 6 feet. Plan to have enough bottom drains to remove the debris and silt from the bottom of your pond.
