Wow insane ponds bro.
The pond im planning will only be maybe 2 or 3k gallons since i dont have a very big yard.
Do u keep your heat exchanger in a shed or right out in the open? Do u use it in the winter or change over to the gas only?

Wow Trev I can't beleave you brought this old old old thread up to the top!.........In #52 of this thread the photo shows the little green box I built to keep both the natural gas boiler and heat exchanger in.[Do u use it in the winter or change over to the gas only?]If you want to know if the heater is there all year round the answer is yes.
I was thinking of using an air heat exchanger and keeping in my shed and keeping the shed heated in the winter.
I knew u kept koi but i didnt know it was on this level lol
Would love to see all this in person someday

I don't know what you mean by air heat exchanger... But heating a shed with your filter in it is a very poor way to heat a pond. You want to heat the water as directly as possible. .......You are welcome to come and see the koi and "others" just let me know when.
I prob dont have the term right but heres wht i was thinking of. My dad uses thes on his pool.

Ah a heat pump. Might work ok. You would not want in a shed with your other equipment as it cools the air around it. I like that it has a titanium heat exchanger,most SWIMMING pool heaters are TOXIC to fish.
