COMMERCIAL & RESIDENTIAL FOUNTAIN & WATERFALL SERVICES
Waterfall & Fountain services often provide a nice visual and auditory addition to residential and commercial garden areas. A fountain can enhance the aesthetic appeal, in addition to calming views, and the sound of falling water that soothes one’s soul. Nevertheless, fountains and waterfall aqua sources should be properly installed and maintained in order for the system to run efficiently and healthily. Doing so helps encourage an environmentally healthy ecosystem while keeping the pond free from bad scents, mosquitos, and unhealthy fish or turtles. The question usually is, how can one maintain, repair, or construct a waterfall & fountain services on their property?

Floating Pond & LAKE Fountains
Lake Maintenance Inc. (LMI) managers are experts in the installation, construction, and maintenance of aqua aeration systems which includes Floating pond fountains. (Fountains who float on top of ponds) These are considered beautiful additions to any lake, pond, or aquatic landscape. Some don’t realize that aerators provide a number of additional benefits for water purification. Not only do fountains provide an aesthetic appearance to a property, but they also help with algae control as well as weed management by decreasing organic waste muck and lowering the nutrient load.
COMMERCIAL & RESIDENTIAL FOUNTAIN INSTALLATION & MAINTENANCE
Depending on how your fountain was constructed, the maintenance goals may follow. The unique makeup of every fountain will determine the total plan required. Because of this, creating a proper maintenance program to effectively manage larger aqua systems requires an extremely high level of experience in applied garden fountain management. We know better than anyone that not every property owner or apartment complex manager is equipped to do this.
WATER QUALITY MONITORING & TESTING
Whether your golf course ponds have waterfalls leading into them or water fountains throughout the property it’s imperative to maintain the water feature so that it is kept clean and free of harmful bacteria due to stagnant water.

NOT ALL POND-LESS WATERFALLS & FOUNTAINS ARE THE SAME
Depending on the use and goals of your bodies of water, there might be different aquatic management strategies needed. For example, a waterfall or fountain surrounded by heavy vegetation along an apartment complex walkway to the main office, might be a priority to manage more often than a retention-basin in the back of your property with a floating-pond-fountain. We treat and manage each as they are constructed and what type of equipment they are using.

Lake Management Inc. has a fleet of aquatic pond technicians that operate with equipment capable of testing the different aqua sources for algae issues and removal of natural and other debris with waterfalls and fountains.

ADD FLOATING & SPOUTING FOUNTAINS TO YOUR PONDS & LAKES
Add extra beauty, and additional healthy aeration to you water features by adding floating / spouting fountains. In addition to making your ponds and lakes more beautiful, adding a fountain to your water features also allows for better monitoring, testing, and anticipated restoration of your water features. We constantly monitor water levels and quality, as these are the foundation of any long-term integrated pond and fountain maintenance program. It is essential to know the biological and chemical demands placed on your aqua sources. We use this information to pump water into your system and encourage fish growth in order to bring balance to the overall landscape.
The majority of issues that fountain and waterfall managers face can be traced to some kind of imbalance in aqua quality and the inability to keep the water clean in water feature. Excessive nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus can play a major role in creating the following nuisances:
- Waterfall & Fountain Algae Blooms
- Poor Fountain & Waterfall Flow Rates
- Foul Odors and Aquatic Algae Presenting
- Poor Health of Aquatic Life (If a natural water feature)
Alkalinity, pH, dissolved oxygen, and other parameters play an equally important role in an aquatic system’s health. The biological and chemical oxygen demand on your pond or lake at a specific time will tell us quite a bit about its current conditions and the likelihood of issues developing in the future.
SUCCESSFUL POND & FOUNTAIN STRATEGIES START WITH GOOD PLUMBING, EQUIPMENT, & LOCATION
Successful strategies for water feature management begin with determining a baseline consisting of these things
- What Type of Plumbing Was Used When Building the Fountain / Waterfall?
- What Type of Pump is Being Used?
- What Type of Valves Were Installed?
- What Type of Liner Was Used During Construction?
- Does the Water Feature Have Wildlife or Vegetation Around it?
- Is the Water Feature Directly Under the Sun?
- Is there Potential for Water-Loss Due to Splash or Evaporation?
- How Deep is the Water Feature?
