FAQs
What type of water should I use?
It is recommended to use clean tap water. Distilled or de-mineralized water can lead to algae growth over time.
How often do I need to add water?
This depends on evaporation rates due to weather. Check the water level regularly, at least once a week, and top up as needed to keep the pump submerged.
Can this water feature be left on all the time?
Yes, the feature is designed for continuous operation as long as the pump remains submerged in water and is connected to a power source.
How do I clean the polyresin material?
Wipe the surface with a damp cloth. For stubborn stains or algae, use a soft brush and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Rinse thoroughly.
What is the warranty period for this product?
Please refer to the retailer or manufacturer's documentation for specific warranty information, as this can vary.
Can I use this indoors?
While designed for outdoor use, it can be used indoors if placed on a waterproof surface and near a power outlet. Ensure adequate ventilation for the pump.
Does the LED light have a timer or remote control?
This model features a basic integrated LED that turns on with the pump when powered. It does not typically come with a separate timer or remote control.
Troubleshooting
Water feature not pumping water
Check that the pump is correctly connected to the power source and submerged in water. Ensure the water level is sufficient and the pump's intake is not blocked.
LED light not working
Verify the LED light connection. Ensure the pump and light are receiving power from the mains adapter. If the issue persists, the LED component may require replacement.
Water is not flowing evenly
Ensure the feature is on a perfectly level surface. Check for any debris or blockages in the spout or on the rippling surfaces.
