Top 7 Mistakes While Installing Pond Lining Sheet

We know how much the installation of pond lining sheet contributes to the chance for the people to save the environment. Still, it also plays an important and influential role in making the ponds or any such water sources in their property well-fitted and well-benefitted, resisting in for a more extended period of smooth functioning, making it good enough for the people to enjoy the benefit of not putting in much cost to make it practical to work for a longer duration. 

 With this blog, we aim to discuss one of the issues we, as the manufacturer and supplier of Pond lining Sheet at Mono Industry, feel is that sometimes people perform certain activities in a way that they either mistake at the installation of or create any kind of damage to the sheet while installing it in the pond. 

So, the following are the points that are often done by the customers owning a pond lining sheet to make, which leads to a particular mistake:

1. Study Your Pond Properly - 

Before the installation of the pond lining sheet, one must perform a proper site visit so that you can get an idea of the size of the pond and some other requirements that you must look for before buying. Such as - At the time of purchasing, make sure you also consider the placement of your pond; if it is open to sun rays, then do not forget to purchase the UV Resistant Pond Lining sheet; otherwise, the non-resistant sheet will have cracks in it, which will cause massive loss to your expenses.

2. Before implementing the lining sheet, people often forget to prepare the area around the pond, which usually leads to difficulties in installation and damage to the sheet. This is because people typically forget to clean the area surrounding the pond, where one must ensure that there are no sharp or heavy objects, like rocks or debris, present around, which could affect the lining, creating an impact on the smooth base. 

3. Choosing the wrong Material—

There are many types of pond lining sheets, depending upon your requirements. Sometimes, incomplete research leads to the mistake of choosing the wrong material type, which wastes your costs and your time. The material could vary in size, shape, and characteristics. So, it is advisable to make sure that you choose the sheet carefully, keeping the size, shape, and requirements of your pond in mind. 

4. Pay attention to the Edges - 

It is important for you to take care of the fact that the no edges of the pond are left uncovered or if you have overlapped at the edges as it could cause water leakage from the pond. Therefore, one must ensure that the liners overlap the edges correctly, where you can use a rock and edging material to keep the liner in place. 

5. If the pond liner sheet is not appropriately placed or aligned, it could rupture the pond, as its improper placement can cause folds or gaps in the pond. So, carefully position the liner carefully to avoid any such hindrance later on, which can double your work. 

6. It is advisable to place a protective layer underlay on the liner sheet, but people often forget to do it. This can make the durability of the lining sheet difficult, which could cause it to tear later on. Therefore, it is necessary to place a “geotextile protection layer” underlay the pond liner sheet.

7. Sometimes, when installing the pond lining sheet, people forget to look out for the “drainage and water flowing system,” which then leads to an improper drainage system and water flow. Therefore, it is necessary for you to make sure that you are not putting the sheet in a way that it even covers the drainage or stops the water flow. 

These seven mistakes, if considered seriously and before time, could help you keep your ponds safe and secure for a much longer and more durable time, saving you money and time from being invested again and again.
