    You're not kidding. Those are some BIG rocks! I see multiple snorkles behind walls inside the pond. Do you mind me asking their purpose. Is your next trick going to be digging while the excavator is still suspended in the air? Awesome project as always. 👍

    Does the chlorine stain the rocks? Need a special filter/pump for the sand?

  • @beetlejuiceification
    @beetlejuiceification 2 месяца назад

    Good gravy, white sand reflects sunlight so sunburns would make the area harmful to humans and animals.

    When they start these they always look a descent size then they fill them with rock and turn them into paddling pools

    • @freshimpactco.8698
      @freshimpactco.8698 10 месяцев назад

      Yeah, if your rocks are 40cm - 50cm, then you lose 80cm - 1m in width once you have laid your rock into place.
      That's if you have shelves that allow you to lay just one layer down. If it needs more rock on that layer to reach to top of the shelf, then you lose more at the bottom.
      I've made a few ponds 18m x 16m, and they lose a little on the sides. But the bigger you go, the better. It just costs more to do, it is all.

  • @MrCites1

    Nice work. Does the sand stay fresh underneath without an up flow water pipe under it?

    • @markthepondguy
      @markthepondguy  Год назад +1

      Thank you! 👊🏽
      As of now this is a chlorinated system so yes, it’s looking great.
      This feature is built with the option to run with natural bacteria vs chlorine as well.
      If the customer decides to switch, the plumbing is set up to run water through the sand.

    @taylorlindsay1262 Год назад +1

    Just curious how you guys keep the water clean? I know in a standard pool the water can get dirty in the corners where there’s little water circulation? Does the sand and rocks cause dead spots where there’s very little water circulation?

    • @markthepondguy
      @markthepondguy  Год назад

      We added jets to any dead spots which helps as well as the high amount of use this pond gets. Kids playing and walking around in the sand actually helps any debris that could possibly fall in to redirect to the intake bay.

    What is the primary reason for a pond vs a pool?

    • @markthepondguy
      @markthepondguy  Год назад

      This customer has owned several pools in the past but wanted something to blend in better with the Pacific Northwest landscape in their yard. The kids have used this pond 300 days so far, so it definitely brings the functionality as well as the aesthetic the homeowner was looking for. And when the pond is not used as much in the future, they plan to run it naturally and add aquatic plants and fish.
