How to Winterize a Koi Pond
If you're fortunate enough to live in a warm climate, your pond can stay active all winter. However, if you live farther north, you're going to have to do a little bit of preparation in order to ensure that your pond survives. The most common problem for Koi ponds during the winter months is aeration.
Filters that have not had water circulating through them for the winter should be cleaned well before turning the pump back on this spring. Cleaning will remove toxins that can develop from waste breaking down in the filter in the absence of oxygen. Once your filter is up and running, seed it with beneficial bacteria.
