Inside a Fountain Set
Choosing the Right Pump
Selecting the right pump is essential for your Fountainscape. As a general guideline, we recommend a flow rate of 1500 gallons per hour (gph) for each fountain feature in a residential installation. Commercial features, especially if it’s visible from a distance, benefits from a flow rate of 3000 gph.
Opt for Variable Speed
For a pleasant up-close experience, consider a variable-speed pump. It allows you to adjust the flow without overwhelming sounds, ensuring a tranquil environment. Variable-speed pumps are energy-efficient and extend the pump’s lifespan.
Customized for Your Vision
The specific pump size is tailored to your Fountainscape’s unique design. Depending on your project’s requirements, we may combine multiple pumps to achieve the desired water flow and effects.
Reservoir Solutions for Fountainscapes
Fountainscapes use a foundation that combines a 45mm EPDM liner, Aquablox reservoirs, and a pump vault, each serving a unique purpose.
Aquablox: Your Versatile Base
Aquablox serve a dual role as a reservoir void and a structural support. These box-like structures resemble milk crates and provide a sturdy foundation for the decorative elements of your fountainscape.
Pump Vaults for Easy Maintenance
Our Fountainscapes feature pump vaults to house the pump separately, encased within the EPDM liner. These vaults offer convenient access for pump maintenance.
During our consultation visit, we’ll explore how these components are tailored to your specific Fountainscape project, providing a solid foundation for a beautiful water feature.”
Fountainscapes come complete with all necessary plumbing components:
Comprehensive Plumbing: Your Fountainscape includes everything needed for the plumbing system.
Custom Flow Enhancement: Custom drilled holes in fountain features to increase water flow. Bulkheads are installed in these holes for efficient operation.
Flow Control: Fountainscapes feature manifolds with ball valves. These components enable precise flow balancing between different feature elements.
Easy Maintenance: We include a dual union check valve at the pump, making pump removal a hassle-free process.
During our consultation, we’ll tailor the plumbing solutions to suit your unique Fountainscape project.
Rocks play a pivotal role in creating the natural and distinctive beauty of Fountainscapes. Here’s how they are integrated into the design:
Landscape Integration: Rocks serve as the foundation for seamlessly settling Fountainscape features into the landscape. Whether it’s placing a bowl feature within a grouping of rocks, framing a stream or waterfall with stones, or incorporating urns as part of the landscape’s framing rocks, each rock is strategically placed to achieve a natural, harmonious look.
Boulders as Hardscape Features: Boulders take center stage as primary hardscape elements. Varying sizes of rocks are artfully used to create a more authentic and natural appearance. Avoiding uniform-sized rocks contributes a natural look. Boulders often serve as framing rocks above and below the waterline. Smaller rocks, including gravel and cobbles, complete the feature’s intricate detailing.
Artful Customization: In some cases, rocks are expertly chipped or cut to fit within the Fountainscape design. Features are crafted around the rocks to ensure a seamless, organic integration.
Rocks are the heart of Fountainscapes, transforming each feature into a unique and natural work of art, ready to grace your outdoor space
Fountainscapes operate by pumping water from a reservoir to a manifold, which then flows down your chosen fountain features. The water returns to the reservoir, creating a continuous cycle. Fountainscapes can include natural streams, waterfalls, and unique fountain features for a distinctive look.

Upgrades
…and a few other things.
There are five upgrades you can add to your simple fountain to take it to the next level.
Add a whole new dimension to your fountain with lights. There are several options to choose from. You can add a ring of light to the top of almost every fountain feature lighting up the ‘bubble” effect making it almost seem like a torch. Uplights complete the picture highlighting the silver raindrops that spill from your backyard fountain.
Get the next level of amazing from your fountain with a fire add-on kit. Adding fire can be as easy as dropping in a paraffin burner (you can even have citronella to keep the bugs at bay) or as dramatic as the propane ring pictured here.
Set your mind at ease with an auto-filler. One of the few maintenance chores associated with a Fountain Set is ensuring the reservoir is topped up so your pump doesn’t run dry. The auto-filler takes care of this automatically!
Maintain the best water quality automatically! Fountains are typically low maintenance installs, but for fountains in full sun or on well water, sometimes water treatments are necessary to avoid poor water quality. The auto-doser takes care of adding whatever treatments you need.
Say goodbye to string algae all while being 100% safe for plants, animals and fish. Some fountains can develop string algae. If you have pets or birds that drink from your fountain you may not want to use the traditional liquid treatments the auto-doser provides. The Ion Gen solves your algae issues and is safe for pets and wildlife.

Ideally yes, but it isn’t necessary. Some water features require constant filtration, but not a simple fountain. We recommend you run it 24/7 to avoid mosquitos finding your reservoir an attractive place to lay their eggs. Other considerations can be if wildlife comes to rely on your fountain as a source of fresh clean water you may want to keep it running 24/7.
No. Mosquitos prefer stagnant water to lay their eggs. This is one reason we recommend leaving your pump on 24/7 to break the surface tension of the water and discourage mosquitos.
No. A simple fountain recirculates water held in the reservoir.
Due to evaporation and some over-splash your feature will need periodic water top ups. It is possible to connect your feature to an automatic fill valve to elliminate this chore and ensure your reservoir never runs dry.
Homeowners have to provide their own power for us to plug the pump and/or lights into.
Ideally, you hire an electrician to install a GFI waterproofed plug near the feature. While you are waiting for an electrician we can use a heavy-duty (12-14awg) outdoor extension cord.
It is always best to schedule the electrician for after the water feature has been installed.
For fountains with a reservoir of less than 500g:
You can leave water in the reservoir.
Remove the pump and drain any excess water. Storage in dry frost-free location for winter.
Either cover your fountain feature with a winter tarp or remove it from the basin and store it in a frost-free location.
For fountains with a reservoir of over 500g:
You can leave the feature running through the winter. If it freezes keep a close eye on the reservoir. As the ice locks up on the feature it will lower the reservoir. That ice will eventually insulate the running water underneath it and it will continue to flow. A frozen fountain can be an amazing sight by itself, just keep an eye on the reservoir level.
Almost none!
Make sure the reservoir is topped up periodically and winterize the feature at the end of the summer.
Simple Fountains create almost no disruption to your property.
The excavated soil will need to be relocated, but it is usually easy to incorporate into the existing landscaping.
Heavy machinery is not required so there should be no need for lawn or garden repairs. Sometimes an irrigation line may conflict with the installation and either you have your irrigation company service it afterwards are we can repair simple reroutes or fixes.
Simple fountains have no water filtration. If you find algae build-up or if it will be in full sun all day, we recommend installing an auto-doser or IonGen. This can help keep algae growth in check.
Absolutely. Adding simple fountains is an excellent way to add another dimension of interest to an existing water feature.
