A pond is not only beautiful, but also useful.
ADVICE.NEWS explained why it is worthwhile to build a pond in your own garden.
Why do you need a pond in your garden?
Water always relaxes, so the presence of a body of water will have a beneficial effect on a person’s mood and emotional state.
An artificial pond is a picturesque decoration of the garden.
However, in addition to its aesthetic functions, the pond serves as a source of coolness in hot weather and also stores a reserve supply of water.
A garden pond improves the garden ecosystem, making the surrounding space more balanced and closer to the natural environment.
Thus, in summer, moisture evaporates from the surface of the water, which helps plants not to wither due to hot and dry weather.
Sometimes a pond helps to lower the groundwater level on the site.
If there is excess moisture in the foundation of the house, a storage pool is installed near the house.
Such a pond is filled with groundwater through a drainage well, as well as surface water.
