PP not questioning your experience but just maybe the method in which you use it
Bottom line is this guys! If you have the money to get Vertex to hook you up and check out your pond and give you a "This is what I would do" consultation I'd say do it cause they know their stuff no doubt!
If your into the DIY kind of thing and have a little time on your hands and are not afraid to do a little homework you can do it yourself and save a "bit" of money. Of course there is always a higher risk factor doing it yourself and messing something up but isn't that what ponds and Pondboss is all about?
IMO pondboss is more about learning how to, and experiencing the what if's and the I messed up cause I tried this factor and reporting back to us about what not to do and what to do.
Now I get it some folks don't want to go through all of that so for them I say find a vendor and let them help you out if you can! It's really up to what you want to get out of it!
I know more about air in ponds now then I ever would have if I let someone else do it all. I am no expert by any means but a lot better off now then I was 5 years ago. You know what they say "knowledge is power"!
