We swim yesterday for the first time this year. The water was 78 degrees and the pool enclosure mellowed out at 107. It was great. We don't have a pool heater. Just the enclosure and we also purchased a solar blanket that helped increase the water temperature a little. First swim April 5 2009, not bad for NC and no heater. Thanks for all your help with ordering and installation.

by Wayne Orchard,Virginia,Guest Columnist  Well, after talking - for at least 5 years - about covering our koi pond and with the projected increased cost of natural gas, Susan & I did some serious research. We considered lots of different options from commercial greenhouse type covers using heavy duty plastic sheeting up to a full-size greenhouse.
 After considering both aesthetics and our check book balance, we decided upon a custom sized cover primarily used as a swimming pool cover. The Aqua Shield is made with an aluminum frame covered by lexan. Covers come is various shapes - ours is the "sport" model. It can easily be opened to view and feed the koi.  In just the two weeks that the cover has been installed,our pond temperature has risen 5 degrees without the aid of the heater! The Aqua Shield cover exceeds our expectations!
