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-290D) over the pump, ensuring that it is centered and level.
Step 6 - Insert the CPVC pipe connected to the tubing into the pipe protruding out of the bottom
of the column (FT-290B).
Step 7 - Place silicone around the straight end of the 3 spouts and twist each one carefully into the
holes on water feature (FT-290B).
7a - Note: Be sure the spout is facing down toward the basin after they are inserted.
7b - Note: CPVC Pipe has already been inserted into the spillers to promote an even water
flow. If the pipe comes out, simply reinsert them back into the spiller.
