WINTER CARE AND GENERAL FOUNTAIN INSTRUCTIONS
Fountain bowls/tops and other fountain components, which collect water, should not be left outside in the
winter since any component, which fills with water and freezes may crack. Likewise components such as
pedestals, which remain in a basin, filled with water, which then freezes, may also crack or crumble.
Ideally, therefore, a fountain should always be stored indoors or in a dry protected place such as a
covered porch away from the elements. However, if a fountain must be left outside:
(1) Remove pump, rubber stoppers, drainpipes, finials, and other small components for storage
indoors. Note that stoppers or drainpipes are removed to allow drainage in the event water accumulates
in any basin. Compression stoppers may be left on the pump cord for easier assembly next season.
(2) Raise fountain base from ground with wood strips so that base will not freeze to the ground
(3) Cover or wrap the fountain with burlap or other absorbent material (old blanket or towel) and
then cover securely with plastic, making sure that water will not accumulate in the basin or other fountain
(4) Check fountain periodically to insure that plastic is secure and water is not accumulating in any

Install fountains on a level surface. You will need a properly grounded 110-volt (AC only) GFCI protected
receptacle near the fountain for your pump. All pumps are submersible and must be completely
underwater to function properly. Test all pumps and adjust to full output prior to assembly. It is not
recommended that fountains be placed directly on grass or dirt. Position the channel opening at the base
of each fountain toward the electrical outlet to be used since the pump cord will be threaded through this
