Let’s Clear This Up: Cloudy Water in the Pond

Clear water is right at the top of almost all pond owners’ wish list. There are several types of cloudiness that can upset us:

Whitish cloudiness

often caused by an explosive increase inbacteria. There can be many different reasons for this.

Greenish cloudiness

caused by suspended algae. This is usually caused by a combination of a lot of nutrients in the water and strong light entering the pond.

Brownish cloudiness

Mostly the whirling up of sludge (organic matter from the bottom) is the cause.

Anyone who has no UV-C water clarifier ( JBL PROCRISTAL UV-C Compact plus 36 W ) at hand, can treat greenish suspended algae blooms with JBL PhosEX Pond Filter * and eliminate other kind of cloudiness with JBL CleroPond . JBL CleroPond flocculates the cloudiness, which then gets caught by the filter or it sinks and can be vacuumed away.

* Labelling according to EU Directive 98/8/EG: Use biocides safely! Always read labelling and safety instructions before use.

PUSH messages from JBL

What are PUSH messages? As part of the W3C standard, web notifications define an API for end-user notifications that are sent to the user's desktop and/or mobile devices via the browser. Notifications appear on the end devices as they are familiar to the end user from apps installed on the device (e.g. emails). Notifications appear on the end user’s device, just like an app (e.g. for emails) installed on the device.

These notifications enable a website operator to contact its users whenever they have a browser open - it doesn’t matter whether the user is currently visiting the website or not.

To be able to send web push notifications, all you need is a website with a web push code installed. This allows brands without apps to take advantage of many of the benefits of push notifications (personalised real-time communications at just the right moment).

Web notifications are part of the W3C standard and define an API for end user notifications. A notification makes it possible to inform the user about an event, such as a new blog post, outside the context of a website.

JBL GmbH & Co. KG provides this service free of charge, and it is easy to activate or deactivate.
