FAQs
What is the primary purpose of this reservoir?
The primary purpose is to act as a discreet and stable base for water features, housing the submersible pump and ensuring adequate water for circulation.
Do I need to use concrete blocks with this reservoir?
Concrete blocks are often used to elevate the water feature within the reservoir, hiding the pump and tubing. Whether you need them depends on the specific water feature you are using and its design. They may sometimes be provided with the water feature itself.
Can I use this reservoir with any water feature?
While designed for Primrose stainless steel water features, it can be used with other water features provided they fit within the reservoir's dimensions and require a submersible pump.
How do I clean the brushed stainless steel finish?
Use a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a clean cloth to avoid water spots. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
What size water features are compatible?
The compatibility depends on the specific dimensions of your water feature. It's best suited for water features that can be elevated on blocks within the reservoir, with the pump and tubing fitting comfortably inside.
Is the pump included with the reservoir?
No, the pump and water feature are typically sold separately. The reservoir is designed to house these components.
What maintenance is required for the reservoir?
Regular cleaning with a soft cloth and ensuring the water level is maintained are the primary maintenance requirements to keep it looking its best and functioning correctly.
Troubleshooting
Water feature is not pumping water.
Ensure the pump is fully submerged in water within the reservoir. Check the power connection to the pump and the main power source. Clean the pump's intake to remove any blockages.
Visible pump or tubing.
Adjust the position of the water feature on the blocks within the reservoir, or consider using more blocks to achieve better concealment. Ensure tubing is neatly arranged.
Reservoir appears unstable.
Verify that the reservoir is placed on a completely level surface. If using blocks for elevation, ensure they are securely positioned and that the water feature is balanced on top.
Water level drops quickly.
Check for any leaks in the reservoir or tubing connections. Ensure the water feature is not splashing water outside the reservoir area excessively.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
- Choose a level location for the reservoir.
- Place concrete blocks (if needed and provided or acquired separately) inside the reservoir to elevate your water feature.
- Position the water feature on top of the blocks.
- Connect the pump and tubing according to your water feature's instructions, ensuring the pump is submerged within the reservoir.
- Fill the reservoir with water until the pump is fully submerged.
Compatibility:
This reservoir is designed to work seamlessly with many Primrose stainless steel water features. It can also be adapted for use with other water features that require a submersible pump and a discreet water basin. Ensure the dimensions of your water feature are suitable for the reservoir's size.
Care:
- Clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the brushed finish.
- Periodically check for and remove any debris from the reservoir.
- Top up water levels regularly to keep the pump submerged and prevent it from running dry.
