Keeping Your Wall fountain Clean
Keeping Your Wall fountain Clean To ensure that water fountains last a long time, it is vital to perform regular maintenance. A common concern with fountains is that they tend to accumulate dirt and debris, so it is vital that you keep it free from this. Additionally, anywhere light from the sun mixes with still water, algae can develop. Blend hydrogen peroxide, sea salt, or vinegar into the water to avoid this particular problem. Another option is to mix bleach into the water, but this action can sicken wild animals and so should really be avoided. An extensive cleaning every three-four months is ideal for garden fountains. Before you can start washing it you must drain out all of the water. When you have done this, scrub inside the water reservoir with a gentle detergent. Feel free to use a toothbrush if needed for any smaller crevasses. Make sure all the soap is totally washed off.
It is highly suggested taking the pump apart to better clean the inside and remove any plankton or calcium. You might want to let it soak in vinegar for a few hours to make it easier to wash. Mineral or rain water, versus tap water, is ideal in order to prevent any build-up of chemicals inside the pump.
And finally, make sure the water level is always full in order to keep your fountain working optimally. Allowing the water to reach below the pump’s intake level, can cause severe damage and even make the pump burn out - an undesired outcome!
