Greetings!

As kids begin to head back to school it's a sure sign that summer is starting to slip away. But there's still plenty of beautiful Colorado days remaining for your customer to enjoy their water features. It's also the time of year where many of them are thinking about how they can improve and upgrade their water feature this fall or next spring!

In this month's newsletter we have the link to register for Pondemonium online coming up next week, our Labor Day store hours, a product update, and this month's Aquascape video.

In response to the ongoing and rapidly changing international tariff environment Aquascape announced a temporary surcharge on their products. Beginning August 1, 2025, True Pump began adding this temporary 5% surcharge to all invoices for any Aquascape products purchased (including liner). Aquascape's goal is to keep this surcharge in place only until the tariff situation stabilizes. Once things settle down, they will move forward with updated pricing that reflects a more predictable cost structure.

We appreciate your understanding and continued partnership as we work through these challenges together.

Pond at the top and pondless waterfall at the bottom. How does that work? Brian Helfrich shows you how.
