Water Fountains 101: Fountain Care & Maintenance
Humans are biophilic creatures. By surrounding ourselves with nature, be it in the form of water fountains, flowering plants, or pets, we experience the quietude that is often missing from our day-to-day routines. Yet natural beauty also requires care and maintenance. We are thus constant gardeners, as the saying goes, even if one's "garden" consists of a cat, a perennial house plant, and a wall fountain. It's not the form, but the peace that counts. At least that's what our mental therapists have to say about it.
How to Hang Wall Fountains
Your wall fountain has arrived, a magnificently fierce lion or a classically elegant Italian or English design that you're eager to display. Now it's time to deal with some important practical and aesthetic details. Wall fountains are functional works of art, so in addition to decorative considerations such as framing and visibility, you'll also need to locate your fountain where electricity is easily accessible and passers-by can easily pass by. Come hang with us!
Water Fountain Glossary
From acrylic to Zen, there are a whole host of terms that you'll encounter as you shop for water fountains at SimplyFountains.com. To make things easier for you, we've compiled a glossary or dictionary of common water fountain-related words and their definitions. With our glossary, you'll learn that alga is the singular form of algae, and that water fountains made from a particular kind of acrylic are actually bulletproof - though we don't recommend testing them.
Trouble Shooting Water Fountain Tips
From monitoring startup waterflow to performing long-term maintenance, troubleshooting is a part of every water fountain owner's experience. Often when water fountains aren't performing properly, it's because of a very basic problem. Our guide to troubleshooting water fountains looks at some of the most common issues that arise with both old and new fountains. It also offers some useful tips on how to keep your fountain looking and operating at its best.
Water Fountain FAQ
Water fountain owners are curious people. No, that doesn't mean that they're weird. It means that they like to know what things are and how they work, which is a quality we appreciate at SimplyFountains.com. (We also appreciate weirdness, by the way.) Our Water Fountain FAQ offers a brief look at some of the concerns that are often raised by fountain owners, including proper cleaning and maintenance procedures and why it keeps making that noise.
