Area men plan to help on Uganda water project
HOMER — Two men associated with a Homer concern are planning to travel to Uganda this month to take part in a rainwater-harvesting bulge out for a school and medical facility.
Chris Sturdyvin of Chris' Water Gardens and his company foreman, Matt Kinney, will be among 15 or so people taking part in an Aquascape Purpose project to supply the International Needs Network school in Kiyindi, Uganda, with unsophisticated water.
They expect to build a 20,000-gallon rainwater-harvesting system that should specify the school and the Makonge Health Centre with clean water for drinking and cooking meals.
"When they run out of water, they've got to shut in the doors," Sturdyvin said, adding that students don't have good alternatives when the institute is closed.
Sturdyvin, who lives near Homer, and Kinney, who lives in Westville, aim to leave Jan. 20 and be in Uganda for about 10 days, Sturdyvin said.
They presume to work alongside other contractors from New York, Pennsylvania and Canada who position Aquascape water systems.
Pump Installation - Aquascape's Pond and Water Garden Community
I have a extend out that I started a year ago and got put on cling for a year(Gov't job). We have a waterfall and succession thriving into a lake. When we started the lake was condign being built and now it is full. there is no pile or anything like that. I am tiresome to suss out out how to put the pump in the water. The pump I am using is an Aquascape pro 10000 gph, Signature 6000 Biofalls. how would you guys go about installing the pump and making it working? Any support would be greatly appreciated. Oh btw the lake is 6 feet the high seas.
Water under liner - Aquascape's Pond and Water Garden Community
Today, I noticed that the liner approaching the pumphouse is bulging upward and is exposed. There are rocks on either side of this bulging arete. The stick out is about 3' x 6'. There are koi on one side of the pond surviving in about 6inches of water and the other side closer to the pumphouse has very miniature water. In some places it is thoroughly dry. I imagine that this modulate took part in the last 4 days. I have recently installed a timer on the pumps so that they douse off for about 8 hours at edge of night. Could this provoke the tough nut to crack? In short supply gives favourable admonition about getting some triggered release. I like to look at problems two ways: Cessation the bleeding first, then patch up the insult. By relieving the distress on the liner with the hole casing the pond, you mitigate further damage. Next, you essential to reveal whatever has caused the puzzle in the first locate. I am assuming that this pond hasn't settled you this disorder until recently. What has changed? What have you done that could support...
