Hello, snapple 45 in Holland! I'm not far from you over in Sylvania township off King Road - and very near the TSC. Funny to meet you here!

I leave my waterfall on all year and have a small de-icer which leaves an open hole when it freezes which the birds and squirrels can drink from - which hasn't been much this year. This is the 2nd year I've left my waterfall on and it's been just fine. It sure saves a lot of work in the fall and spring hauling it in and out. I tried it based on the pond guy who has helped with some repairs on the pond. We had it built when we built the house about 9 years ago, but a not-too-smart person unfortunately built it, so it was a battle with leaks the first few years until I found a new guy to repair it, etc.
