Installation site selection: balance between function and aesthetics
Choosing a suitable location is the key to whether the fountain system can operate stably and last beautifully.
🟦 Location suggestions:
- The water depth is recommended to be between 12-18 inches and make sure the pump body is completely submerged in water
- Try to place it in the middle of the pond to ensure that the water output is uniform and beautiful
- Avoid placing it in a location with many fallen leaves and thick bottom mud to prevent the filter from being blocked by impurities
🔌 Power wiring suggestions:
- Use an outdoor plug with a rain cap
- It is recommended to configure GFCI safety protection for the socket
- The plug should not be in direct contact with the ground, and it is safer to raise the bricks and stones
🛠 5 minutes to complete the installation: even novices can operate it!
One of the biggest advantages of this device is the "fool-proof installation," which does not require cutting wires, drilling holes, or additional joints.
Step 1: Install the water pump
Insert the water pump into the bottom slot of the filter box (with the pump port facing up)
Press it slightly to fix it.
Step 2: Add filter material
Lay filter cotton on the upper and lower layers (it is recommended to pre-wet it to reduce idling)
Put a ceramic ring or biological ball at the bottom (to improve water quality)
Step 3: Select and install the nozzle
Choose your favorite water outlet style: mushroom atomization, spray column water column, or petal diversion.
Align the nozzle with the interface and tighten it. The direction can be fine-tuned to keep it vertical.
Step 4: Adjust the diversion valve (optional)
The diversion valve is used to control whether the water flow is diverted to the waterfall pipe.
Close clockwise, and the secondary water channel is closed; open counterclockwise to create a small waterfall landscape.
⚡ Startup test: How do I know that the pump is operating normally?
After plugging in the power supply, check the following items:
- The fountain starts to discharge water within 3-5 seconds
- There is no intermittent sound when the water is discharged, and the pump body does not vibrate strongly
- The water is discharged evenly and upright without tilting to one side
Professional tips: Spray some water on the filter cotton surface before starting to reduce the risk of the pump running dry.
