EasyPro PCT810 Pond and Garden Cover Protective Tent Dome Netting | 8 x 10 ft | 3/8 “ Mesh | Protection from Debris | Sturdy Poles and Zipper Included | UV Resistant

Product Information

The hardest part was getting the poles in place *until* I realized the instructions were for a different design — they show a tab with a grommet-like hole for the ends of the poles. This 7x9 tent has a different design, however — a split ring with a small pin attached. If you have this design, just insert the pin at each corner into the end of each pole. Dome covers are great for keeping your pond water clean and keeping predators like herons and raccoons out of your pond. A signature will be required upon delivery unless we have authorisation from you that the goods can be left. Shelter Systems’ Fish and Koi Pond Covers perform excellently in strong wind due to their many, evenly spaced anchor points, the fact that the covering is drum tight and that they are shaped to shed the wind. The 14′, 18′, and 20′ Covers each 12 anchor points. The 30′ has 20 anchor points.

Benefits of Quality Pond Netting Pond netting helps trap debris and also deters predators, such as herons. Pond netting comes in lots of different sizes and you can trim it to fit your pond or get a pond net custom made. We are on the phones Monday to Wednesday 8am – 5.30pm As seen on the ‘world famous’ BBC Blue Peter TV show – The instructions for the wind lines might be confusing if you’ve never done something similar, but they work. Definitely use them! The stakes on the skirt alone are never going to hold this thing down in the wind. Easy Installation and storage: Assembling this garden dome net is simple, requires no professional skills, and usually only takes a few minutes, and it will be faster with two people. Start by fully unfolding the garden pond mesh, then unfold the two foldable fiberglass poles into the long poles. Go through the diagonal lines of the garden cover net separately, and finally insert the four corner pins into the fiberglass rods and secure them with ground stakes. After dismantling, put it in the storage bag without taking up space.The zipper seems pretty dinky, but I don’t plan on using it often, so as long as it holds together, I’m okay with it.

Fallen leaves are often considered just a visual problem, but not removing them before they have a chance to sink can cause all sorts of issues. As leaves and other organic matter sink to the bottom of your pond, they begin to decompose and contribute to sludge. During the decomposition process bacteria break down the waste and compounds are released into the pond that can harm fish and promote the overgrowth of algae. A more heavy duty pond netting by Dewitt, which offers increased strength due to it’s knitted 1/4″ mesh design. While most netting is usually constructed with 3/4″ and 3/8″ mesh, Dewitt’s much smaller holes means it can be bound much tighter together, increasing its overall durability. The finer mesh design also helps with much smaller debris collection, being able to catch both very small and very large objects falling into the pond. Shelter Systems’ Fish and Koi Pond Covers have a covering made wholly of a superstrong, tear-proof, white multilaminate woven ripstop film which will not rot or mildew. It is UV stabilized to withstand up to 3 years full sun exposure and treated with fire retardant. The fabric is a super strong, high tensile strength, rip-stop, completely waterproof, mildew resistant, and cannot be torn by hand even after it is cut. The white color of the covering reflects the heat of the sun and provides 40% shade. This US made, proprietary material is the finest material we could find to make our tents from.

Often pond owners attribute their fish dying over winter to the cold, but it’s more commonly caused by buildup of sludge (waste) which has been left to decompose and build to dangerous levels. During this process, oxygen levels in the pond drop, and harmful ammonia and nitrite levels rise, which places a huge amount of stress on pond fish. They do not require a fly or liner and are completely watertight and will not leak. They resist condensation build up because the shingled construction drives out moist air by vapor pressure. If you plan on using your Dome in snow or windy conditions, read our important Snow and Wind Warnings. The Dome shape has other comfort features. The interior can be divided into “rooms”. The dome has more volume than a flat-sided tent meaning it feels, and is, more spacious. Affordable We offer four types of FIsh and Koi Pond Covers: Cover Domes, Cover Tops, Cover Shells, and CrystalCave Covers. The Cover Tops are the top portion of Domes. The Cover Shell has a flatter curve. The CrystalCave Cover works well for rectangular ponds. More about CrystalCaves here. Shelter Systems’ Patented Grip Clips that we use to join the domes cover to its poles are molded of a UV stabilized resin blended specifically for it high strength and durability. Light filled, well ventilated, and pleasing look Time will tell for the netting and the sleeves that hold the poles, which is where similar things I’ve owned have failed after a few years of sun exposure. - The stakes are not great. I used them for the skirt-like base, but with little confidence. I used beefier stakes I had on hand for the four wind lines.

Doom Design Pond Cover: This pond cover dome covers a large area of 10 x 8 FT with a dome design with a height of 4.4 FT, the dome design of pond covers for outdoor ponds provides ample space and ensures the height of plant growth and is suitable for a variety of plants. 0.5" mesh aperture maximizes debris and foliage retention, keeping water features clear and reducing cleaning efforts. Great for ponds and gardens!Shelter Systems’ Fish and Koi Pond Covers can be set up by most people in less than 30 minutes without tools. Insert the interchangeable poles into factory-attached connectors spaced evenly over the cover. The poles bend slightly when inserted, tightening the cover into a wind- and waterproof shelter. The cover is freestanding, requiring no guy lines and can be moved into the desired position or location without disassembly. The Pond Cover can be taken down in 5 minutes: just remove the poles and roll up the covering. Shelter Systems’ Fish and Koi Pond Covers are light filled and well ventilated. The translucent covering creates a bright interior, transmitting 60% of the light. Because the panels of our domes are shingled, overhead ventilation is can easily be attained by inserting “ ventilation tubes” between several panels (two vent tubes are included with each Dome). When the vent tube is removed, the panels snap shut and are watertight. Rigid mesh can be installed on top of your pond to keep debris from entering the water and to make the pond safe for kids.
