Hi folks...
Currently all the hoses in my pond is the black flex-style hose and although it works great, where it exits the pond and leads to my filters, it's starting to show its age and late last Fall just before shutdown I was starting to fight pinhole sized leaks in it.
This spring I want to put in some PVC anywhere the hoses exit the pond and route it to behind my waterfall where i keep my filters. My concern is what will happen in Wintertime and freezing? For Winter I remove all the filters, shut down the waterfall and just run floating heaters coupled with sufficient aeration.
What do you all do to prevent the PVC from freezing over the Winter?
