Preformed Pond Liner

[Curious1]

Is it possible to cut a hole add a fitting to a preformed pond liner for hose access? Anyone sell the fittings etc or any tutorials? Thanks.

I have done it on my little preformed pond. I used bulkhead fitting with a little silicone to be extra safe

Thanks for the reply. What type of bulkhead did you use?

I bought this one at Amazon because I preferred brass. I didn't need the valve. $13.59 free shipping if you have prime. There is a garden hose fitting on the valve. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07X2YXH9B/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_6?smid=A2BO1VE69SIWE4&psc=1

I also picked up a few of these at Plumbing Supply https://www.plumbingsupply.com/bulkhead.html @$6.49. $8.95 shipping but I purchased a few other plumbing supplies with them to save on shipping.

I make sure they have 2 rubber washers in them ,it really helps to seal up any little leaks .I can get them any where here .Lowes and most plumbing supply stores handle them and I get the ones with the inside screw in and outside one so I can use pvc or ABS fittings .Brass can be bad for koi and so can copper .My neighbor used them and lost his fish and only thing I could think of was the brass or copper fittings .He changed them out and has not lost a fish since .
