The One Cleaning Solution to NEVER Use On Your Wall fountains
The One Cleaning Solution to NEVER Use On Your Wall fountains Water fountains will keep working a long time with routine cleaning and maintenance. It is important to clean it out and remove any debris or foreign objects that might have fallen into or onto it. Additionally, anywhere light from the sun comes in contact with still water, algae can develop. Either sea salt, hydrogen peroxide, or vinegar can be dissolved into the water to avoid this problem. Some people opt for adding bleach into the water, but the problem is that it harms wildlife - so it should be avoided.Every 3-4 months, garden fountains should have a good cleaning. First off you must drain the water. Next use mild soap and a soft sponge to clean inside the reservoir. If there are any small grooves, use a toothbrush to get every spot. Be sure to carefully rinse the interior of the fountain to make sure all the soap is gone.
Calcium and fresh water organisms could get inside the pump, so you should disassemble it to get it truly clean. Soaking it in vinegar for a while will make it easier to clean. Build-up can be a big problem, so use mineral or rain water over tap water, when possible, to prevent this dilemma.
And finally, make sure the water level is consistently full in order to keep your fountain running optimally. Allowing the water level to get too low can cause damage to the pump - and you certainly don't want that!
