Maintenance of decorative fountains and waterfalls

Carefully read the instruction manual supplied with the fountain.

For the longevity of your fountain, we recommend using distilled water. In addition, using distilled water will help prevent harmful limescale build-up. You can buy this water at any automotive store.

A better option than using ordinary water is filtered water.

If limescale appears, it must be removed with ordinary detergents.

Ensure that the fountain always has the required water level. Otherwise, the pump may burn out. It is necessary to add water only to the turned-off fountain.

As soon as the water begins to bloom (it depends on the proximity of the light source), foams or smells, it is necessary to replace the water in the fountain. In any case, you must change the water at least one time per month.

If you change the water at the wrong time and there is a green coating from algae on the fountain, clean the fountain with a regular cleaning agent and a brush.

Also, clean the pump and diffuser from limescale and other contaminants as necessary.

It is not recommended to use chemical detergents or solvents when caring for the fountain.

If the device emits suspicious noise during operation, do not operate it.
