FAQs

How long does the battery backup last?

The battery backup duration depends on the amount of sunlight the solar panel receives. Typically, it can operate for several hours after dark or during cloudy periods once fully charged.

What size garden is this feature suitable for?

This feature is ideal for small to medium-sized gardens, patios, balconies, or courtyards, providing a focal point without overwhelming the space.

Do I need to buy a separate pump or solar panel?

No, the pump and solar panel are integrated and included with the water feature.

How often should I clean the water feature?

It's recommended to check and clean the pump and filter regularly, especially during warmer months, to prevent blockages. A full clean can be done seasonally.

Can this water feature be used in freezing temperatures?

No, it is not designed for freezing temperatures. It should be drained and stored indoors during winter to prevent frost damage.

What is the warranty period for this product?

Please refer to the product packaging or the manufacturer's website for specific warranty information, as this can vary.

Does the copper effect fade over time?

The polyresin material is designed to be weather-resistant. However, prolonged exposure to harsh elements may cause natural variations in appearance over extended periods. Regular cleaning can help maintain its look.

Troubleshooting

Water feature not operating

Ensure the solar panel is clean and in direct sunlight. Check all connections between the solar panel and the pump. Verify that the water level is sufficient to submerge the pump. Ensure the battery is charged (allow several hours of sunlight).

Pump is making noise but no water is flowing

Check the pump intake for any obstructions such as leaves, algae, or debris. Clean the pump filter if it is clogged.

Water flow is weak

Ensure the solar panel is receiving adequate direct sunlight. Clean the solar panel and the pump filter. Check for any kinks or blockages in the tubing. The water level may be too low.

LED lights are not working

Confirm that the 'lights on' or similar function is activated. Ensure the solar panel has had sufficient sunlight to charge the battery. Check for any obvious damage to the LED components.
