Interrupter (GFCI) outlet. Position the base ith the pump cord exiting on the left. See Step 3 for further
information regarding this.

Section 1 ‐ Initial Prepping
Your Gran e fountain is fully assemble on the shipping pallet.
Step 1.1 Carefully remove all packing and rapping. For transport to the designated installation area it may be
easier to remove the panel from the base. This ill enable you to move each piece independently to avoid
any damage.
Step 1.2 Place the base in the selected area. Make certain that the area is flat, smooth, and level. The hole for the
electrical cords ill be near the rear of the base. This is the back of the base for Center Mount or Rear
Mount models.
Section 2 – Pump Installation
Step 2.1 When you decide the location of the Grande it is important to place the reservoir ith the plug exiting the
left side. See Step 3.1 for further information regarding this. Locate the Water Pump (A) and install the
Water Filter / Flo Valve Assembly (B) by simply threading it into the pump exhaust port as sho n in Fig.
2.1A, if not already connected. Place the assembled Water Pump (A) and Water Filter / Flo Control Valve
Assembly (B) into the base as sho n in Fig. 2.1B.

Step 2.2 Take the pump plug from the left side and insert it through the hole in the base as sho n in Fig. 2.2A. We
suggest leaving some slack in the cord inside the base. Locate the Cord Strain Relief (C) in the base. Clip
the cord into the Cord Strain Relief (C) as sho n in Fig. 2.2B. This ill secure the cord.
Section 3 – Panel an Base Assembly
Step 3.1 Before installing the panel in the base, you must first establish the front/flo side of the unit, if not already
installed. This is easy for stone/mirror units, ho ever, for clear glass models the front/flo side can be
easily determined by the visibility of the PVC Disperser Bar. The PVC Disperser Bar can only be seen on
the front/flo side of the panel. After you have established the front/flo side, carefully slide the panel
into the base as sho n in Fig. 3.1. As noted in Step 2.1, the base should be placed ith the cord exiting
the left. Note that the panel has plumbing connections on one side at the bottom. Be sure to place the
panel in the base ith the plumbing connections on the right. This ill allo you to connect the plumbing
from the panel to the Water Pump (A) and Water Filter / Flo Control Valve Assembly (B) that you placed
in the base in Step 2.1. Be careful not to stand the uprights on the Water Pump (A) or the cord.
Step 3.2 Once the panel is placed inside the base, turn the thumbscre s using hand-applied pressure to secure the
panel as sho n in Fig. 3.2.
Step 3.3 Hand fasten the assembled Water Pump (A) and Water Filter / Flo Control Valve Assembly (B) into the
quick connect / hose coming out of the panel as sho n in Fig. 3.3.

Section 4 – Operating Your Fountain
Step 4.1 After filling the fountain ith ater, before turning on your fountain, make sure the Flo Control Valve
(B) is in the “closed” position as sho n in Fig. 4.1. We advise the closed position so that you can adjust
the ater flo as described in step 4.3. If started in the fully open position a surge of ater ill flo that
may splash. Note: Too much or too little water flow will cause dripping and splashing. Water level must
be maintained at least 2” above the Water Pump (A . If the water level drops below the top of the pump,
damage to the Water Pump (A may occur.

Step 4.2 You can no plug in your Water Pump (A) into your designated GFCI electrical outlet. Be sure to move to
Step 4.3 immediately as the pump ill begin operation as soon as you plug it in and running ithout ater
flo for more than momentarily could damage the Water Pump (A).
Step 4.3 Slo ly open the Flo Control Valve (B) and ater ill begin flo ing do n the panel ithin seconds. As
ater begins to flo do n the panel, slo ly open the valve further until there is good ater coverage.
Sometimes there is a “break in” period of a fe moments for the ater to cover the entire surface. If
there are “dry” areas on the glass/mirror you can use Water Guiding Pad (F) provided as sho n in Fig. 4.2.
You can guide/rub the dry areas ith the Water Guiding Pad (F) and then guide the ater to those areas
to ensure that ater flo s do n the entire face of the panel evenly. Tip: Make sure when guiding the
water with the Water Guiding Pad (F that your elbow is facing upward while guiding/spreading the
water across the panel during startup. This will prevent water from running down your arm.
Step 4.4 Place the Rock Tray(s) (D) and Rocks (E) in the base as sho n in Fig. 4.3 and Fig. 4.4.
Fig. 4.3 Fig. 4.4
Do not attempt to move the feature once it is fille with water. Maintain the water level by filling at least 2” above the
Water Pump (A) at least once per week. Waterfalls that are place near air con itioning vents an intakes will evaporate
at a faster rate. Don not operate if low on water. If har water is a problem in your area the use of istille water will
guarantee the best results. It is recommen e to rain the fountain once every three months an refill with clean water.
It may be necessary to wipe the insi e of the base with a clean cloth to remove any buil up. Clean the Water Filter (B),
locate between the Water Pump (A) an the Flow Control Valve (B), regularly to avoi loss of water pressure. Clean
the glass surface as nee e with glass cleaner, being careful not to get cleaning agents in the water.

Our experience has sho n that in practically 100% of incidents that any defect is apparent ithin a eek of installation
and use. Appearance defects should be noticed upon unpacking the fountain. We have found that finishes have 'failed'
due to poor maintenance, local ater conditions ith minerals affecting the finish, attempts to clean ith harsh chemicals
or abrasive pads being used. Performance of ater flo , spitting, and other "leaks" are usually caused by debris getting
into the fountain, buildup of minerals, algae from poor ater or lack of maintenance. Pumps can also fail due to ater
levels not being maintained in the reservoir and this is not covered by the arranty.
