Caring For Your Fountain
Here are some tips about caring for your indoor water fountain.

To clean the pump - Unplug the your fountain from the electrical outlet. Remove the pump from the base of the fountain, then gently use a small brush or a stream of water to remove any debris.

To keep water clean - We recommend that you clean your fountain monthly using distilled water, at which time you should also change the water, keeping the water clean prevents the water from becoming sticky and forming micro-organisms. To prevent algae, you may use an algaecide, which can be purchased from any fish or pet supply store.

To clean off hard water deposits on the base or rocks - Soak the container and rocks in a mixture of vinegar and water to clean and remove any mineral build-up.

Keeping the water at an optimum level - Add water periodically to keep water level at optimum level and to avoid damaging and shortening the life of your pump. NOTE: Never let the pump dry, as this will damage the pump.

Fountain storage - Unplug the fountain from the electrical outlet, empty the water, and store rocks and fountain in a dry, cool place.
