Setting Up and Maintaining Landscape Fountains

Setting Up and Maintaining Landscape Fountains Setting up an outdoor wall fountain requires that you bear in mind the dimensions of the space where you are going to place it. In order to support its total weight, a solid wall is needed. Remember that small areas or walls will need to have a lightweight fountain. In order to operate the fountain, an electrical socket will need to be close by. Whatever the style of outdoor wall fountain you buy, they generally come with simple to understand, step-by-step instructions.Setting Maintaining Landscape Fountains 4630485465779.jpg

The general outdoor wall feature is available in an easy-to-use kit that comes with everything you need and more to properly install it. In the kit you will find all the needed essentials: a submersible pump, hoses and basin, or reservoir. Depending on its size, the basin can normally be hidden quite easily amongst the plants. Once fitted, wall fountains typically only require some light upkeep and regular cleaning.

Replenishing and purifying the water on a routine basis is very important. Rubbish such as twigs, leaves or dirt should be cleaned up quickly. Make sure that your outdoor wall fountain is shielded from bitterly cold winter temperatures. If left outdoors, your pump could split as a result of freezing water, so bring it inside during the winter. All in all, an outdoor wall fountain can last for any number of years with the right servicing and cleaning.

The Source of Modern Day Garden Water Fountains

The Source of Modern Day Garden Water Fountains Hundreds of ancient Greek documents were translated into Latin under the auspices of the scholarly Pope Nicholas V, who ruled the Roman Catholic Church from 1397 to 1455. It was imperative for him to embellish the city of Rome to make it worthy of being called the capital of the Christian world. At the behest of the Pope, the Aqua Vergine, a damaged aqueduct which had transported clean drinking water into Rome from eight miles away, was reconditioned starting in 1453. The ancient Roman tradition of marking the arrival point of an aqueduct with an imposing celebratory fountain, also known as a mostra, was restored by Nicholas V. The Trevi Fountain now occupies the area previously filled with a wall fountain crafted by Leon Battista Albert, an architect commissioned by the Pope. Changes and extensions, included in the repaired aqueduct, eventually supplied the Trevi Fountain and the well-known baroque fountains in the Piazza del Popolo and Piazza Navona with the necessary water supply.
