Pond Liners: Their Types, Advantages and Installation.
It is important to have a profound knowledge in water containment science when designing a high-performance pond. A pond is simply a living or working vessel, and the capacity of the impermeable barrier to maintain constant water level wholly relies on the quality of the barrier. The absence of a strong liner causes the water to flow through the soil due to hydraulic pressure and the reservoir becomes dry and the surrounding terrain gets saturated. The selection of the appropriate liner generally requires an evaluation of the local environment stressors, the soil make-up and the intended purpose of the water feature. The Strength and Elasticity of Contemporary Pond Lining Waterproof Coatings. The main purpose of a pond liner is to serve as a backup mechanism that prevents any chemical destruction by UV rays, as well as prevents the mechanical impact of the weight of water. The most common materials that are used today are High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) and EPDM rubber because they ha...
