Keeping Your Water Wall Fountain Tidy
Keeping Your Water Wall Fountain Tidy Water fountains will last a very long time with scheduled cleaning and maintenance. It is important to clean it out and take out any debris or foreign elements that might have dropped into or onto it. Also, algae tends to build up anywhere natural light meets water. To stay clear of this, take vinegar, hydrogen peroxide, or sea salt and add straight into the water. Another option is to stir bleach into the water, but this action can hurt wild animals and so should really be avoided.No more than 3-4 months should go by without an extensive maintaining of a fountain. First off you must drain the water. As soon as it is empty, clean inside the reservoir with a mild cleanser. If there are any little grooves, grab a toothbrush to get every spot. Any soap residue that remains on your fountain can damage it, so be sure it is all rinsed off.
Calcium and fresh water organisms can get inside the pump, so you should really disassemble it to get it truly clean. You might want to let it soak in vinegar for a few hours to make it quicker to wash. If you want to eliminate build-up in your fountain, use rain water or mineral water rather than tap water, as these don’t contain any elements that might stick to the inside of the pump.
Finally, be sure to have a quick look at your fountain every day and add water if you notice that the level is depleted. Allowing the water to go below the pump’s intake level, can cause severe damage and even make the pump burn out - an undesired outcome!
