Fountain Set-Up:
Assembly & Installation - A fountain can be diffi cult 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.
Hook Placement:
Position the back hooks:
There are 3 hooks positioned on the back. The two at the top are shaped like an upside down letter “U”, and are 5" from the top and 3.75" from the
sides. The one at the bottom is placed like the letter “U”. This one is meant to keep the back of the fountain from sitting directly against the wall.
Please note these are best approximation as they are placed in mold by hand as consistently as possibly.
