MORE ON CHEMICALS
The first point to bear in mind if you succumb to the temptation to
add something to your pond is ...... you MUST know and know ACCURATELY
the volume of water in your pond which includes the volume in the
waterfall, filters (if large) and streams etc... in other words ALL
the water in your system and not just the
pond.
You must then be able to measure the dose based upon the total
volume and the instructions. This can be difficult for many because of
poor instructions and mixed units on the container.
If in doubt ..... seek advice
Pond conditioner chemicals for removing chlorine and chloramines in
fresh water being added to a pond are commonly available and sold in
large amounts. In my opinion these chemicals are not really necessary
but at least they do perform a specific function and do little harm.
Any chlorine in pond water will normally have disappeared naturally
after short time.
