What Kind of Maintenance Do Home Water Features Need?

Maintaining your home water feature can be simple. First and foremost, keeping the water clean is essential. Regularly remove debris such as leaves, twigs, or algae that may accumulate in the water. Using a skimmer net can simplify this process and prevent clogging in the pumps. Additionally, regularly checking and adjusting the water level is crucial, especially during hot weather when evaporation rates are higher. This helps maintain the desired water flow and prevents the pump from running dry, which can cause damage.

Another important aspect of water feature maintenance involves servicing the mechanical components. Inspect your pump and filtration system periodically to ensure they are effectively circulating water and filtering out unwanted materials. Cleaning the pump's intake and housing every few months helps prevent debris buildup that may hinder performance. In colder climates like Alberta, it's advisable to prepare your water feature for winter by draining the water and storing pumps indoors before the first freeze. 

Edmonton Home Water Feature Repairs

Even the most well-crafted water features require occasional repairs to maintain their beauty and function. 

Call Salisbury Landscaping if you’ve noticed: 

• Reduced water flow: If you observe that water is not circulating as vigorously as before, this could indicate a pump or filtration issue that needs examination.
• Strange noises: Unusual sounds emanating from your water features, such as grinding or squealing, are signs that mechanical parts may be malfunctioning and require attention.
• Water levels dropping quickly: Rapid changes in water level can suggest leaks within the structure or connections, needing prompt repair to prevent further damage.
• Water quality issues: Persistently murky or discoloured water might indicate problems with filtration or circulation, which our experts can diagnose and fix.
• Visible damage or wear: Cracks, chips, or other visible damage to the water feature structure can compromise its integrity and should be addressed to maintain aesthetic and operational standards.

Whether it’s a leaky fountain, a malfunctioning pump, or damage caused by weather elements, our experienced technicians are ready to identify and resolve any issues efficiently and affordably. We believe in providing honest assessments and clear communication so that you know exactly what repairs are needed and why.
