We have a large home as a potential job and my partner and I are discussing whether or not we'd like to do it. Photo attached. The problem is that the downspouts drain into the homeowner's large, stocked pond about 30 or 40 yards away. We obviously don't want the SH to flow into the pond.
Can I get some suggestions on dealing with this home? I don't want to punt because it could be worth some nice money and this customer is a friend. My partner, ever the cautious one, doesn't want to be replacing dead fish!
Disconnect the downs psouts and bag the runnoff or redirect the run off to another area.Looks Like you got pleanty of room.

My initial thought is the volume of water in that pond should sufficiently dilute the runoff. However, that's only my opinion, not based on fact at all.

i was thinking the same thing ray. If mike flushes out the gutters and has gutter canes running in all the gutters thru out the roof cleaning process it should dilute the chemical enough to the piont that there will be no damage. That is my opinion.
