Your Large Outdoor Fountain: Maintenance & Routine Service An important facet to think about is the size of the outdoor wall fountain in respect to the space in which you are going to mount it. A strong wall is definitely needed to hold up its overall weight. Areas or walls which are small will call for a lightweight fountain. In order for the fountain to have electrical power, a nearby electrical plug is needed. There are many different styles of fountains, each with their own set of simple, step-by-step directions. Generally, when you purchase an outdoor wall fountain, it will come in an easy-to-use kit that will include all the needed information to install it properly. A submersible pump, hoses and basin, or reservoir, are provided in the kit. The basin can usually be concealed among your garden plants if it is not too big. Since outdoor wall fountains require little attention, the only thing left to do is clean it consistently.
Replenish and clean the water on a regular schedule. Leaves, branches or dirt are types of debris which should be cleared away quickly. Extremely cold temperatures can affect your outdoor wall fountain so be sure to protect it during winer. Your pump may break when subjected to freezing water during the wintertime, so it is best to bring it indoors to prevent any damage. All in all, an outdoor wall fountain can last for any number of years with the right upkeep and cleaning.
