Installation Protocol.
Choose Optimal Location
Select a calm, open area in your pond, pool, or lake for maximum water feature impact.
Critical requirement: The fountain must be placed in at least 24 inches (2 feet) of water depth to prevent debris from clogging the pump system and ensure proper operation.
- • Avoid areas with strong currents or heavy boat traffic.
- • Ensure proximity to GFCI-protected electrical outlets.
- • Provide adequate clearance for the 9-foot spray pattern.
Assemble the System
The LED lights and floating ring are shipped separately for protection. Careful assembly is required:
- Attach LED Light Ring: Securely screw the LED ring to the floating ring assembly.
- Connect Pump Unit: Install the pump unit into the bottom of the float mechanism.
- Install Nozzle: Select and secure your preferred nozzle type on top of the pump.
- Tighten Connections: Ensure all connections are firm but avoid over-tightening.
Safety Note: Handle components carefully as some parts have sharp edges during assembly.
Install Anchoring
Proper anchoring prevents fountain drift and ensures consistent water display positioning:
- Shallow Water: Use rocks, stakes, or weights for secure positioning.
- Deep Lakes: Install a submerged anchor system to prevent drifting in high wind.
- Pools: Ensure anchoring does not damage the pool surface or liner.
Connect Electrical Power
Standard Electrical Models:
- • Connect flow controller to GFCI-protected outdoor outlet (Required for Safety).
- • Attach pump and LED power cords to the controller system.
- • Use waterproof extension cords if the outlet is distant from the water feature.
Solar-Powered Models:
- • Position solar panel in a direct sunlight location.
- • Adjust panel angle for maximum daily energy absorption.
- • Ensure battery backup system is properly connected.
Performance Optimization
Complete system activation and fine-tuning for optimal water feature performance:
- Activation: Power on and observe LED lights and water spray operation.
- Remote Setup: Test functions (150-foot range) to adjust height and color.
- Inspection: Check for leaks, misalignment, or performance issues.
- Photocell: Configure automatic sunrise/sunset operation if desired.
