- Page 7 Copper Tree and Flower General Care Tips Keeping Water Clear Water clarity is important! The included pump will have shipped in a stainless steel mesh filter bag that should be scrubbed clean every few months to clear accumulation of any algae that collects on the filter. This fine mesh is a filter that has been created especially for these fountains so no debris is allowed to reach the tiny pipes running through the branches.
- Page 8 General Fountain and System Maintenance It is OK to run pump continuously 24/7, or you may choose to connect it to a timer. Fill evaporated water as necessary or considering installing an Auto Fill Kit #ABDAUTO. Add Muck Buster® #PB2682 every couple of weeks to the basin to ensure muck doesn’t build-up over time and clog the pump.
