MAINTENANCE
WINTERIZATION
In colder climates where temperatures can reach below 32 degrees Fahrenheit it is recommended
that all water be removed from the fountain kit. Also, remove the water pump, by disconnecting the
union joint, and store in temperature-controlled atmosphere above freezing.
LINER
Check and adjust water level periodically, keeping the water level at or near the bottom of grating
and no lower than your water pump inlet. Also, remove any dirt, rock or debris from inside the
fountain base that may cause damage to the water pump or flexible hose.
PUMP
The pump is a magnetically driven centrifugal water pump. It has no seals to wear and contains no
oil. All electrical components are encapsulated in epoxy. The energy used is approximately ½ of
regular driven pumps. The pre-filter is provided for use in situations where deposits in the water
could clog or damage the pump. For more detailed information see instructions included with pump.
PRECAUTIONS
Always use a properly grounded outlet. Do not immerse plug in water. DO NOT REACH INTO
WATER TO REMOVE PLUG. TURN OFF CIRCUIT FIRST. The National Electric Code requires that
ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) be installed in the branch circuit supplying fountain or pond
equipment. NEVER REMOVE GROUND PIN FROM ELECTRICAL PLUG. WARNING: FOR YOUR
PROTECTION ALWAYS UNPLUG THE PUMP UNIT FROM ITS POWER SOURCE BEFORE
INSTALLING OR SERVICING. SHOULD THE UNIT APPEAR TO BE NOT WORKING DO NOT
REACH, REMOVE, OR DISASSEMBLE BEFORE YOU DISCONNECT POWER.
STEP 9
Now that all adjustments have been
made the fountain is now ready for
landscaping. Place crushed stone
or rock on grating and landscape as
desired.
