The big clean-up - Autumn cleaning for the pond

Pond enthusiasts know this: No matter how diligently you look after your pond, over the course of the year some organic material may collect in it. Autumn foliage, algae, dirt in general - all that can have a negative affect on water quality and make it difficult for the pond and its inhabitants literally to breathe. Therefore, a thorough cleaning of the pond is part of the schedule, in autumn at the latest. Not a problem for GARDENA's clever pond cleaning assistant. With it, pond enthusiasts can wipe out Silt & Co.

Pond cleaning as easy as hoovering

From top to bottom of course with GARDENA Pond Silt Removers SR 1600 and SR 2000. Regardless of whether it has to do with thread algae, silt or residue from dead plants - using the clever cleaning wizards, every pond can be freed of unattractive soiling without a fuss. As easy to operate as a hoover, they extract dirt with their powerful 1,400- and 1,600-watt motors. Owners of the SR 2000 work in a particularly time-effective and comfortable manner: The top model extracts and empties dirt and impurities in a single action. But regardless of which model one chooses, wet feet are not part of the picture in any case because the Pond Silt Remover's extension lance allows you to work comfortably from the edge of the pond.

Because not all dirt is the same, the Pond Silt Remover has four or five different adapter nozzles. As required, the bottom nozzle sucks up silt or the thread algae nozzle is applied. Difficult-to-reach areas are a job for the seam nozzle, which, thanks to its narrow shape, can also reach into especially tight spaces. The final touch with the SR 2000 is provided by a brush adapter, which allows gardening enthusiasts to scrub clean any soiled stones along the edge of the pond.

Once the pond and its banks are taken care of, the adapters and the extension lance are stowed away on the unit in a space-saving manner. Thanks to its wheels and the bow handle, the SR 2000 can easily be rolled to its storage location after the work is done. However, it won't be long before it is back in use because the two practical all-round devices can also be used on terraces or for pool care or household cleaning as wet-dry vacuum cleaners.

And that's how the pond remains healthy in autumn

"Prevention is better than a cure!" - The same also applies to the beloved pond. To prevent dirty conditions as the result of dead plant residue it is recommended that you regularly cut back plants in and around the pond. The easiest way to do that is with the GARDENA combisystem Pond Secateurs, which allow you to cut plants at a distance of one to four metres.
In autumn, pond enthusiasts can skim off fallen foliage quickly and easily with the combisystem Pond Cleaner. Those preferring to take it one step further are well advised to use the GARDENA Leaf Net. Because the net is non-degradable, it offers the pond sound protection even under windy and bad-weather conditions. And that way the pond and its inhabitants can enjoy a carefree autumn.
