Fountain Set-Up:
Assembly & Installation - A fountain can be difficult to install without knowing and understanding the steps involved. To ensure your fountain is
installed properly, please read our instructions and tips before you begin.
Step 1 - Seek Professional Help: Check if professional installation is recommended for your fountain.
Step 2 - Check Foundation: Place your fountain on a level surface. It is recommended to place your fountain on concrete or a hard packed
gravel pad. If the base is level but some components seem off, rotate components or use wedges to level them.
Step 3 - Create a Drip Loop: To prevent water from dripping down the cord and damaging the electrical socket, create a drip loop by allowing
the pump power cord to fall below the wall outlet.
Step 4 - Use a GFCI Outlet: Use only a GFCI outlet when running a fountain.
Step 5 - Place the pump cover (FT-255A) over the pump.
Step 6 - Insert the CPVC end of the tubing into the bottom of the water feature (FT-255C).
Step 7 - Place the water feature (FT-255C) into the pump cover (FT-255A) ensuring that it is level.
7a - Turn the feature and coil the tubing as you lower it into position.
Step 8 - Fill the fountain with water.
