Hello Tim,

It looks like summer in Colorado is arriving right on schedule with some 100 degree days in the forecast. Our ponds are loving the warmer temperatures and we've had our first beautiful water lily flowers bloom this week

In this month's newsletter we have more information on the Aquascape ToolKit, a product surcharge announcement, our Independence Day hours, a product update, and this month's Aquascape video.

Happy Pondering,

The True Pump Team

Ready to take your pond-building skills to the next level? Dive into the Aquascape Contractor Toolkit — the ultimate resource designed specifically for professional pond builders.

The handy contractor toolkit is packed with information about designing, installing, and maintaining water features. When you’re out in the field and need help with construction or product information, the Aquascape Contractor Toolkit is the place to go.



Watch the contractor toolkit video for more details:

In response to the ongoing and rapidly changing international tariff environment Aquascape has announced a temporary surcharge on their products. Beginning June 1, 2025, True Pump began adding this temporary 5% surcharge to all invoices for any Aquascape products purchased (except 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.

A reminder that True Pump will be closed Friday, July 4th & Saturday, July 5th for Independence Day. We want to wish all of you a safe and happy 4th celebrating the birth of our country!

After a few delivery delays we are now well stocked on aquatic plants including water lilies, hyacinth and lettuce, and a wide variety of marginals.

All the new Aquascape products for the 2025 season are now in stock! Some highlights include heavy-duty rock pad slings and also compact underlayment rolls in 15 ft. x 50 ft. and 15 ft. x 100 ft. sizes that come in a roll that is only 4 ft. long! There are also some new decorative items including faux rock fish caves and fountain bowls. The new aquatic plant pots and once-a-year fertilizer capsules will come in very handy when you're doing spring maintenance on your customer's ponds.

"Taking unique spaces to their fullest potential is my favorite thing to do." In this video, watch as Brian and the Aquascape crew transform this small area into a backyard paradise.
