The PetSafe Drinkwell Platinum Pet Fountain is designed for pet owners who want to ensure their pets stay hydrated with fresh, filtered water. Its key benefit is encouraging pets to drink more through a free-flowing stream, which can help prevent dehydration and related health issues like kidney failure. A potential caveat is the 5-litre capacity might require more frequent refilling for very large households or multiple pets, though its design aims to simplify this. Key features include a large water capacity, a removable reservoir for easy refills, a snap-lock lid and dishwasher-safe components for simple cleaning, an adjustable stream to appeal to different pets, and an anti-splash ramp to reduce noise and mess.

It is recommended to clean the fountain weekly to prevent slime buildup and maintain hygiene. The reservoir, ramp, and lid can be washed in the top rack of a dishwasher. The pump should be rinsed in clean water monthly.
Filters should be replaced every 2 to 4 weeks. This frequency may need to be increased if you have multiple pets or live in an area with hard water.
Yes, the 5-litre capacity makes it suitable for both cats and dogs, including larger breeds, although very large or multiple pets might require more frequent refilling.
With its 5-litre capacity, the fountain can typically last for a weekend for most pets. However, it's advisable to ensure the water level is adequate before leaving and consider a larger capacity fountain if you are away for longer periods or have multiple pets.
The PetSafe Drinkwell Platinum Pet Fountain comes with a two-year manufacturer's warranty.
You can adjust the water stream by turning the small knob located on the side of the submersible pump. Turning it clockwise generally increases the flow, and counter-clockwise decreases it.
The fountain features an anti-splash receiving ramp designed to minimize noise. You can also adjust the stream flow to a gentler setting. Some pets may take time to adjust to the sound; ensure the fountain is placed in a quiet area initially.
Ensure the fountain is plugged in and the power adapter is securely connected. Check that the pump is fully submerged in water. Clean the pump intake and impeller to remove any debris. Verify the filter is not clogged.
Adjust the stream flow control knob on the pump. Clean the pump and check for any blockages in the tubing or nozzle. Ensure the filter is correctly seated and not impeding flow.
Check that the reservoir is seated correctly on the base and the lid is secure. Ensure the pump is submerged and not vibrating against the fountain walls. Clean the pump and check for any debris that might cause rattling.
Replace the filter immediately. Clean the entire fountain thoroughly with soap and water, ensuring all parts are rinsed. Use fresh water for refilling. Consider more frequent cleaning and filter changes if the issue persists.
