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.
