Is Your Pond Ready For Chicago Winter?

When you're in a colder region, especially Chicago, you can expect frigid winds and freezing temperatures. For pond owners, this poses an interesting question...

what do you do with your pond in the winter?

Winter ponds can be gorgeous with their ice formations and ample home-skating rink space, if you are so inclined. You can keep your pond running for the winter season or shut it down - the choice is yours. No matter which option you pick, the critical key to keeping your pond in great shape will be maintenance.

Laughing Waters Pond Maintenance is ready to help you conquer the frozen tundra Chicagoland will morph into. If you opt to keep your pond open, our technicians will focus on pump functionality and efficiency, de-icing, reducing negative effects of ice-damming and other critical maintenance needed to protect your ecosystem and equipment. Many homeowners choose to shut their ponds down for winter - leaving it until the Spring to enjoy once again. If you opt to shut your pond down, we can focus on cleaning and winterization procedures, such as protecting your pump, keeping your pond warm enough to not ice up completely so it can release harmful gases and preserving fish and plant life.

Every pond is unique and our team has over twenty years of experience maintaining and protecting water features of every kind. If you are unsure of what your pond may need to survive a brutal Chicago winter, contact our Laughing Waters Pond Maintenance specialists at 708.586.2393 or inquire on our site HERE. Don't let winter wreak havoc on your beautiful water features - help is just a phone call away.
