Use EPDM Rubber Pond Liners & Best Low Cost Fish Pond Liner

A fish pond liner is an impermeable geo-membrane used as the lining of a garden pond and is an alternative to concrete or preformed ponds. Rubber pond liners need to be protected from sharp objects such as stones in order to prevent leaks and punctures.

Goldfish pond liners and Koi pond liners are manufactured in rolls. Strips of liner can be seamed or welded together on site; and a number of different types of flexible pond liners such as PVC pond liners and EPDM, can have their panels pre-fabricated together in the factory to fit the design shape of the pond. These are known as preformed flexible pond liners, preformed fish pond liners or preformed garden pond liners.

The vast majority of flexible pond liners for water gardening purposes are either ...

  • Butyl Rubber Pond Liners - A butyl pond liner can also be "Box Welded" into certain shapes, which can help to avoid creases from folding. This pond liner type tends to be expensive because of the high natural rubber content (approx 28%). Butyl rubber is an established pond liner and is flexible and offers great elasticity. A Butyl rubber pond liner isn't affected by weather conditions and temperatures.
  • LDPE Pond Liners - Flexiliner pond liners are constructed from this material (Low Density Polyethylene). LDPE pond liners are rugged and tough but still flexible enough to fit into almost any shaped fish pond. An LDPE pond liner is constructed from an ultra tight weave of tough fibres that is sandwiched between two layers of rot and UV resistant laminated coating.
  • PVC Pond Liners - PVC liners are low cost pond liners that are ideal for small fish ponds. PVC liners are not really suitable for larger garden ponds due to their lower grade and shorter life expectancy. PVC rubber is a highly stable, highly durable pond lining material.
  • EPDM Pond Liners - EPDM rubber fish pond liners are the preferred choice in many cases because they happen to be extremely effective, flexible, resistant to both high and low temperatures. They are also a low cost fish pond liner and 100% fish and pond life friendly.

Liner Underlay is recommended for all pond liners as the underlay increases protection from stones and other sharp objects that may puncture your Laguna garden pond liner. pond Underlay also helps to prevent excessive stretch and is easy to install.

What size liner do I need for my pond?

How to calculate required length: - Length of liner = (length + (2 x depth))+10%

How to calculate required width: - Width of liner = (width + (2 x depth))+10%

Plan your pool with one dimension equals a standard width of liner off the rolls. EPDM generally comes in multiples of 5 feet up to about 25 feet. PVC and butyl liners are normally supplied in 2 - 8 meter widths. If there are significant changes in shape then use an extra liner.

Make sure that you measure along the contour of the pond excavation just to check before you try to install it. No matter what you have previously read don't stretch the liner into place - fold it into place. prior to cutting .

Use underlay and sand especially in gravely and stony situations. The pressure of water magically causes stones to float up through the sand and press against the liner. Very odd.

You also need to double the underlay for conservation projects or projects where the liner is going to be totally obscured by stone work.
