It humidifies the air too. Particularly good for dry places and specially in winter. The sound of water is naturally soothing and the way it looks is pleasant to the eyes.
This is great, I like the aesthetic but my issue is the 60lbs of gravel plus water weight plus other components makes this needlessly heavy, as well as difficult to maintain the pump. They wear out as time goes by even barring malfunction. Water and pump contained in a bucket within pot with hose coming up through a tray that drains back into bucket with their flat stones and just enough pea gravel to cover rest of tray would have same aesthetic and a fraction of the weight and easy to maintain. 😜
Thank you very much for this very informative video. I wish I have come across this earlier. I just spent two full weeks of my waking hours going through numerous RU-vid tutorials but this is the BEST!!! Now. I better run to Home Depot before they run out of humongous terracota pots!
That was the best tutorial i have seen , so simple , straight forward information and pausing in between takes , loved it give people like myself time too soak it up and doin it '' thankyou very much for your help , and the fountains look absolutely divine , thats how i would describe them divine , have a wonderful day.
I may have to go in this direction. I cannot seem to keep bucket filled with water. I've tried rebuilding, resetting, different materials such as large mulch and cannot keep water flowing. Thanks for decorative pot suggestion!!
Good video for 2009 but wonder how many carpets got ruined when people sealed a water pot hole with duct tape. He said that container holds 15 gallons of water, fill it with 15 and you would have water coming out of the cord hole that he sealed with duct tape LOL. This would be great if you would eliminate the duct tape and use silicone on the decorative pot cord hole. Also instead of the hose clamp just use a smaller pump. Simple changes for 2018!
Its not necessary to put a lot of water in the planter, just enough for the pump to be able to circulate the water I'd say about 3 to 4 gallons of water is sufficient, every 2weeks add a gallon or two...
I use hydrogen peroxide in mine - keeps the water sparkling clear...just add it like adding water...preventing dirt/gravel from getting to the pump is critical. I put a piece of nylon screening on top of the basin/bucket because my gravel would have fallen in there. Also, I suggest rinsing the gravel and the rocks before assembly.
