Lecture - A4 Water Feature Maintenance

Introduction Water features are not as maintenance-free as most people assume. Along with their inherent beauty, they bring challenges such as algae, string algae, leaks and holes in the liner or plumbing. That aside, once a balanced ecosystem has been established, water features can be relatively low maintenance, with regular deadheading of spent blooms and leaves the biggest weekly task. Learning Outcomes After completing this module you will be able to: describe general water feature maintenance requirements, explain the procedures for balancing and maintaining the balance in a water feature, and explain seasonal water feature maintenance requirements.
