Pond Boss Forums Thread Like Summary - Water well for the pond.

I turned on the water well for the pond. I just could not go any longer without water additions. The drought is kicking my butt, Rains are in the forecast but if we don't get some good rains the ground is going to suck it up before I get any run off into the pond. Even with 50 gpm it will take a long time before I get my water back to normal levels. Come on rains!

When testing, place the container in the pond and fill the container with pond water to the same level. This keeps temperature, etc as close as possible to the pond. If the levels stay the same, it should be evaporation if the pond level goes down it indicates a potential leak. That is how it’s done for swimming pools so in theory it should work for a pond.
