Pond and Liner Size

It's important to work out the amount of water

your pond will hold and the size of liner you'll

need. Use our handy guide to help with this.

Alternatively go to our website and use the

pond calculator or just give us a call!

Measuring your pond

To get an accurate measurement

of depth, place a piece of wood

or a broom across your pond

and measure from that to the

bottom of your hole.

What Size Pump and Filter will I need?

A pond with lots of plants and no fish (or a few, small native

fish) needs all of the water to be pumped through the filter

every 2 hours.

We call this a nature pond.

A pond with some plants and some fish (mainly goldfish),

needs all of the water to pass through the filter every 1

hours.

We call this a goldfish pond, it is by far the most

common type.

A pond with few plants and big fish, like koi, needs the

water to be pumped every hour.

We call this a koi pond.

So if you have a pond of 3000 litres then your pump flow

rate will need to be:

Nature Pond – Flow rate is 1500 litres per hour

Goldfish Pond – Flow rate is 2000 litres per hour

Koi Pond – Flow rate is 3000 litres per hour

Once you've worked out your pump flow rate turn to page 28

to choose a pump or if you have any questions give us a call.
