Water Feature Maintenance, Startup & Shutdown done right
Missouri freezes are hard on water features. Water left in a pump, lines or fountain can freeze, crack parts and shorten the life of your system.
Our water feature maintenance covers both ends of the season: a spring startup to get everything running clean, and a fall shutdown that cleans up and winterizes your system before the freeze.
How it works
- 1
Schedule before the hard freeze
We set a fall visit before freezing temperatures arrive.
- 2
Shut it down
We turn off the feature, pull the pump and drain water from the lines.
- 3
Clean it up
We clear leaves and debris and clean filters so nothing sits over winter.
- 4
Store and protect
We store the pump safely and leave the feature ready for spring startup.
- 5
Spring startup
We reinstall the pump, clean the basin, refill and test so it runs clean all season.
