Med Winterization Kit Vacuum, Net, Deicer, Fish Food, Bacteria - FWVACKITMED

Description

Medium Fall and Winterization Bundle with Vacuum, Pond Net, Deicer, Cold Weather Fish Food and Cold Water Bacteria
The winter cold can be harsh on ponds. Prepping your pond for the cold will save the equipment from damage and keep your pond and aquatic life safe. Start in the Fall by thoroughly cleaning the pond with the CleanSweep Pond Vacuum.
Installing the Pond Net prevents further debris from going into the system. Any organic debris left in the system, such as leaves, will break down and release toxic gases.
The 100-Watt Deicer and Ventilator maintains openings to let those gasses escape and keep oxygen levels high. Keeping your fish safe during the winter is key.
The All seasons fish food and Cold Weather bacteria are specifically designed to keep fish healthy in low temperatures. The Fall and Winterization Bundle has everything needed to winterproof your system.
Bundle Includes:
15' x 15' Pond Net with 12 Stakes - The nearly invisible mesh keeps out debris and protects fish from predators. It is easily installed by using the stakes to secure all 4 corners of the net.
100-Watt Deicer and Ventilator - Allows gases to escape to maintain a toxin-free pond. This low wattage floating pond deicer is safe for aquatic life, and will not harm any other pond components.
10 lbs. of All Seasons Fish Food - Special 28% protein formulation that makes it easy to digestion during winter months. Smaller 5mm Size for all fish types.
16 oz. of Fall/Winter Bacteria - Contains photo-synthetic bacteria that stays active in temperatures as low as 48°F
CleanSweep Pond Vacuum- Powerful 1400 watt motor, with its 6 foot maximum suction depth, can dislodge and extract the toughest layers of settled sludge or decaying organic matter on the pond bottom.

FAQs & Calculations to Help Select the Correct Kit
1. How Many Gallons of Water does My Water Feature Hold?
Rectangular Ponds
Length x Width x Average Depth x 7.48 = Gallons
Example: A rectangular pond 15’ long, 10’ wide and 1.5’ Deep Pond is...
15’ x 10’ x 1.5’ x 7.48 = 1683 Gallons
Oval Ponds
Length x Width x Average Depth x 0.8 x 7.48 = Gallons
Example: An oval pond 15’ long, 10’ wide and 1.5’ deep is...
15’ x 10’ x 1.5’ x 7.48 = 1683 Gallons
Round Ponds
Length x Width x Average Depth x 7.48 =Gallons
Example: 15’ long, 10’ wide and 1.5’ Deep Pond
15’ x 10’ x 1.5’ x 7.48 = 1683 Gallons
Streams
Length x Width x Average Depth x 0.25 x 7.48 = GALLONS =Gallons
Example: 15’ long, 10’ wide and 1.5’ Deep Pond
15’ x 10’ x 1.5’ x 7.48 = 1683 Gallons
2. How Big of a Pump Do I Need??
Minimum pump size is determined by pond type, water volume, head height and friction loss. The minimum pump size recommendations are:
Water Garden, Few Small Goldfish
Circulate total pond water valoume every 2 hours.
Example: 2,000 GPH pump for a 3000-gallon pond with 2’ waterfall.
Fish Pond, Several Small Fish
Circulate total pond water valoume every 1 hour.
Example: 3,800 GPH pump for a 3000-gallon pond with 2’ waterfall.
Koi Pond, Several Large Fish
Circulate total pond water valoume every 3/4 hours.
Example: 2,000 GPH pump for a 3000-gallon pond with 2’ waterfall.
Calculating Head Height
Dynamic head pressure is found by taking the vertical height of your waterfall; the distance between where your pump is (typically in the skimmer) and where your waterfall is, and adding the static head pressure (pipe and fittings) 1’ for every 10’ of tubing and 1’ for every elbow or “T” fitting.
Example: 3' (vertical height) + 2.5 (25' of tubing) + 2' (for 2 elbows) = 7.5' of Dynamic Head Pressure
Note:
It is important to take into consideration while calculating how much flow will be at the top of your waterfall by accounting for the head height due to the laws of fluid dynamics. Please refer to the flow chart above to help choose the correct pump.
