Benefits of fountains

-
They have a natural humidifying effect on dry air.
-
They add negative ions in the environment.
-
Flowing water gives a sense of balance and improves our concentration.
-
The sound of gently flowing water puts us to sleep at night
naturally.
-
Flowing water helps drown out other sounds.
-
It brings nature into your home.
-
Fountains help us to relax and reduce daily stress levels,
keeping us calm and centered.
Fountain Care
-
Fountains are very low maintenance. Simply check the
water level and add fresh water once every 2-7 days.
-
Be sure to check the water level on a regular basis.
If the water level goes below the intake level you will hear a slurping
sound. This could damage the pump if allowed to continue.
-
Your fountain is a self-contained unit with an underwater
pump that recirculates water.
-
The fountain and pump are exclusively for use inside the
home.
-
We suggest using a timer to automatically turn the fountain
on and off.
-
To maximize the aesthetic effect of your fountain, try adding
a few drops of essential oils.
-
You may also add sea salt, vinegar, bleach or hydrogen peroxide
to distilled water to prevent algae growth.
-
Keep your fountain out of the sunlight as it promotes the
growth of algae .
-
Clean the fountain every one to three months. All parts
of the fountain can be taken apart, for cleaning and rearranging.
We recommend using an old toothbrush, detergent and warm water. Disassemble
the pump and clean inside where algae and mineral deposits build up.
Clean the bowl, shells and rocks too.
-
The pump is NOT designed to work without being immersed in
water. It should always be covered with water when in use.
Don't let your pump run dry.
-
There is a one year warranty included with your pump.
Please consult the warranty information and manufacturer's instructions.
Pump warranty does not cover damage caused by allowing the pump to run
dry. Without water, the pump will actually melt from overheating.
-
Always protect the surface area under your fountain.
A piece of plexiglass or plastic works well. Your fountain from Natural
Surrounds has been set at precisely the correct setting so water does not
splash.
-
Keep water level high. You may need to fill it every
2-7 days. If you go out-of-town, unplug your fountain. Do not let
your pump run dry. If you do not plan to use the fountain for a period
of time, it is best to empty the water.
-
When you receive your fountain, just add distilled or rain
water. Before plugging it in make sure the pump is covered with water.
-
With proper care, your fountain will bring you worry-free
enjoyment and help you relax and recharge your energy.
