Cautions and Warnings
• RECOMMENDED FOR OUTDOOR USE ONLY.
•READ THIS ENTIRE MANUAL CAREFULLY BEFORE BEGINNING
INSTALLATION. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
• Heavy Fiber Stone Fountain, two people required to lift and
assemble.
• Assemble the fountain at site location. Once assembled, Do not lift
fountain by reservoir, this may cause parts of the fountain to loosen
or even break.
• e solution to the product not being level is not to clean it, but
to re-level. “Once a week inspect fountain, site and adjacent area
for moisture build-up and levelness. Clean as necessary, and re-
level the fountain if needed. is is especially important for humid
environments.
• is unit must stay connected to a supply circuit that is protected
by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). e GFCI should be
tested on a routine basis. To test the GFCI, push the test button.
e GFCI should interrupt power. Push the reset button. Power
should be restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, the
GFCI is defective.

Care & Maintenance
1. DO USE clean tap water.
Your fountain’s pump works better if it doesn’t have to pump dirt and debris. Puried water or spring water
are not necessary, but the water should be clear of visible contaminants.
2. DO clean your fountain regularly.
Indoor fountains should be cleaned monthly or whenever the inside of the reservoir feels slick or slimy.
Outdoor fountains should be cleaned more frequently, especially in windy areas or when located near shrubs
or bushes.
3. DO add a small amount of sanitizer to your reservoir.
Household liquid bleach (Clorox or similar), Oxidol, Swimming pool Chlorine, Spa Bromine or other non-
Chlorine pool/spa shocks can be used. Please heed the manufacturer’s instructions for dilution (dosing) - if
you are not sure, a good rule of thumb is one Teaspoon (tsp) per gallon of clean tap water - adjust the dose
of the others accordingly.
4. DO clean your pump regularly.
e pump’s strainer has grates to keep out large debris, but small amounts of broken leaves, dirt and pollen
can build up in the space between the strainer and the pump cavity. Cleaning this regularly (every 3 or
4 months) will extend the life of your pump and allow the pump to produce maximum ow for a more
attractive fountain. If the pump internals start to have a build-up of minerals (a crustly, white deposit),
soaking the parts in vinegar can help remove these deposits. Remember to rinse the parts thoroughly after
the vinegar bath.
5. DON’T place small objects into the fountain.
Please refrain from adding additional rocks, gravel or other decorative features - some of these may provide
additional debris to clog the pump.
6. DON’T add unapproved chemicals.
Except for the small amount of sanitizer listed above, other chemicals may damage the nish of your
fountain or the plastics of the pump. In particular, stay away from adding algaecides and fragrances to these
fountains - it may seem like a good way to limit the maintenance, but the fountains are not designed to
withstand these chemicals.
7. DON’T use abrasive cleaners to clean scale, algae or mildew from the fountains.
Abrasive scouring pads should also be avoided - these will scratch the fountain surfaces and provide more
places for the scale, algae and mildew to attach and grow more quickly.
8. Winter storage is recommended in cold weather climates.
- Empty water reservoir
- Remove pump, lights, and store inside.
- Cover fountain or detach reservoir to prevent water/ice accumulation as shown below.

fountain. To prevent vibrations, place the pump on top of a sponge
or rag to dampen the noise.

persist, pump maintenance may be necessary. Regular pump
maintenance is recommended to prolong the life of your pump. If
pump does not operate on initial startup, or stops after extended
use, please reference the Pump Maintenance Guide for cleaning

to periodically check the fountain for water around outside of the
reservoir. (See #4 for more detail)
