PONDING: KEEP IT SIMPLE --  NOT STUPID

3/15/2021

 
If you like complicated, high-maintenance, have-to-tinker-with-it-constantly types of water features, stop reading now and find another contractor! Here at The Pond Gnome, we believe in keeping things simple by working WITH Mother Nature NOT against her.

The KISS Method of Ponding

Some contractors want to sell you all the bells and whistles to boost their bottom line. All those techno-doohickeys cannot replace what Mother Nature does all on her own. For over 20 years, we've been practicing the K.I.S.S. method of ponding with great success and rave reviews. We believe in installing only what is necessary to give our clients the best possible water feature experience for their personal goals. And we have plenty of options to choose from! We even have rainwater harvesting systems that your HOA won't even know are there!
​
We also believe in adding to and enhancing/replenishing the natural environment around us. Living, organic, ecosystem water features offer not only healthy drinking water for your pets, but also offer local and migratory birds and critters the respite they need from the concrete jungle that we humans seem to be creating.

Filtration Does the Heavy Lifting

How do we do we keep it low maintenance? We install both biological and mechanical filtration. The biological filter requires annual attention, while the mechanical filtration requires only a few minutes a week -- less time than taking the trash out of the house every week. And the best part: this equipment is hidden from sight! That's right: no ugly giant filters sitting around. Just the beauty of the water feature.

Water Quality

We use natural bacteria and enzymes as our water treatment products -- pretty tough to go wrong with those. If you follow our formula, you'll have clear water almost always (except maybe for a short time after a monsoon). We even have pond management programs to relieve some, or all, of your necessary participation.

Gardener's Delight

With a living ecosystem pond or water feature, gardeners can delight in a place to putter around at will. And what a great place to garden (standing in a pond) during our hot Phoenix summers!
​Not a gardener? No problem! We have worker Gnomes to take care of that for you. You can have as much vegetation as you like, or keep it clean and prim -- your choice, our pleasure.

All That's Missing is YOU!

So, if you're interested in a water feature to grace your outdoor living space so that you can hang out, decompress, do yoga, meditate, entertain the kids, or just basically enjoy life, consider a properly built ecosystem pond or water feature.
