A pond fountain floating on the water surface can bring lively visual interest to a pond while adding water circulation. The fountain operation, inspection and maintenance can be influenced by weather conditions all year round. A consideration of seasonal changes can benefit the protection of the fountain parts and enable the system to perform consistently.
Handling pond fountains floating on the water surface during each season should take into account conditions like temperature, falling leaves, storms, ice formation, water level changes etc. The right procedure can be influenced by location, pond environment and the fountain system itself.
Performing seasonal checks is also a good opportunity to check the condition of pump, intake, electrical wiring, anchoring and other elements before seasonal changes make it difficult to maintain.
