Aftercare Information

• Clean and top-up the water on a regular basis.
• To empty the fountain of water for cleaning or for
winter care:
Smaller fountains (that are light enough to be lifted)
the water can be emptied by simply inverting the
fountain and letting the water pour away through a
suitable drain or sink.
Larger (heavier) fountains - water can be removed
by using a large sponge or by purchasing a simple
syphon pipe available from aquatic supply stores.
• Always shut off the power before cleaning and
maintaining the fountain or pump.
Please note: The easyfountain®aftercare range is only available in the UK
and Republic of Ireland. Please check with your nearest stockist for availability.

Guidelines to help protect your easyfountain®:
• If possible, bring your water feature indoors
eg. garage or shed.
• Drain the fountain of all water. If water freezes within
the fountain, this can cause damage.
• If your fountain is left outside and drained of all water,
a Kelkay easyfountain® cover can be purchased to
cover the entire fountain however we cannot
guarantee that it will protect your fountain from
winter damage.
Pumps
• Check the water is covering the pump by at least 5cm.
• Check the flow dial on the pump to ensure the correct
“flow” for the fountain is set.
• Check to see if it is running if it is then it is probably
blocked.
• Clear the pipe and impeller from blockages.
• Check the fuse in the plug.
Lights/Transformers
• If the lights and the pump are not working it is likely the
transformer has failed. If the product is within the
warranty period and misuse has not occurred a
replacement part can be issued providing a proof of
purchase is supplied.
• Flickering lights are caused by a build-up of algae and
lime scale on the connectors between the transformer
and the lights. This is not covered by the warranty.
Replacement parts can be purchased from Kelkay LTD.
• If the lights stop working they are available to purchase
from Kelkay LTD. Light bulbs are not covered under
the warranty.
• Individual L.E.D lights are not replaceable but can be
replaced as a set.
Leaks/Loss of Water
• Overfilled - make sure the water reservoir is not
overfilled. Remove water if necessary.
• Pump Flow Rate - check the pump and reduce the
flow rate if required.
• Level - ensure the fountain is completely level.
• Natural evaporation, weather elements and wildlife
will also affect the fountain water level on a daily
basis. Top up your fountain as required.
Main Body & Paintwork
• Do not confuse limescale residue with fading paint -
this is not a fault and in most cases the fountain
needs cleaning.
• Paint peeling will occur if the fountain has been left
outside in the frost and will not be covered by the
warranty.
• Parts broken off the main body while in use are
usually caused by bad weather conditions and not
covered by the warranty.
