Lessons I Learned After Buying a Fountain  

What I learned after living with a three tier fountain for a couple years.
- The depth of the water reservoir is very important. The more shallow, the more often you will need to add water to keep the water line above the pump.
- In addition to evaporation, some fountains loose water due to splash from the cascade of water.
- Each time you add water to a fountain, you should add algaecide to keep the water clear.
- Colored fountains will fade in the sun and calcium build up will appear more prominent on a colored fountain.
- If the fountain doesn’t have a drain plug, you will have bail or pump the water out of the fountain when you want to clean it.
