Introduction

If you have a water fountain in your home or office, then it is important to keep it clean. Water fountains are an excellent way to add some style and elegance to any space. However, they can also be very easy to neglect because they aren’t used on a regular basis. If left unattended for too long, your fountain could become dirty with mold and algae buildup which would detract from its appearance as well as ruin the health benefits that come with drinking water from a natural source like a fountain instead of tap or bottled water. The good news is that keeping your fountain clean doesn’t have to be difficult since there are ways you can maintain it yourself without having to call an expensive professional service!

Water Fountain Maintenance

The water fountain is a perfect addition to any home or office. It can be a relaxing and soothing addition to your space, but you need to make sure it’s clean for optimal use. When cleaning the water fountain, you will want to schedule regular maintenance. This is especially true if you have children or pets in your home who are prone to spilling drinks on the floor or let their dirty shoes touch the floor near where people walk by. To keep things clean and fresh smelling throughout the year, follow these simple steps:

• Clean every 2 weeks
• Clean every month
• Clean every 3 months
• Clean every 6 months
• Clean every year

Before you scrub the fountain, you need to start by turning off your water fountain and unplugging it. You should also remove all objects that you have placed in or around it.

• Turn off the water fountain and unplug it.
• Remove any objects that you have placed in or around the water fountain. These may include plants, statues or even a small table on which to place your drink while you enjoy it next to your new fountain. You should also empty out any items that have been collecting in the basin of your fountain — rocks and pebbles are common culprits here.
• Wipe down all surfaces with a damp cloth or sponge (you can use soap if you want), then dry them thoroughly with another cloth before continuing with cleaning steps below.
• Once everything is clean, turn on both pumps — one for regular use and one for filtered water — and fill up both basins with fresh water from either tap or filtration system depending on what type of fountains are installed at home (if equipped). This will ensure smooth operation when reassembling everything back together again later on!

Use the right mix of sponge and water to clean your water fountain. Use a bucket full of hot water (or warm water if you are using a plastic fountain). Add some mild liquid soap and gently swirl the mixture around to create some foam.

You can also use a soft-bristle brush to clean hard-to-reach areas of your fountain. If it’s made of plastic, you should use hot water to clean the fountain because otherwise it might melt. Add some mild liquid soap and gently swirl the mixture around to create some foam. Rinse with clear water from a bucket and test it by running through one cycle of your fountain. If everything is still good, then congratulations! Your whole house will now have fresh water coming out of its fountains!

Scrub your fountain until the dirt has been removed. Use a soft-bristle brush on hard-to-reach areas. Rinse with clear water from a bucket until all traces of soap have been removed.

You’re almost there! Now that you have your fountain clean, it’s time to make sure it stays that way. Make sure you follow these steps after each cleaning to keep your fountains looking their best.

• To prevent mineral deposits and algae growth, use a water softener in your sprinkler system. This prevents the buildup of calcium and magnesium deposits, which can lead to clogged nozzles and an unsightly appearance. Be sure to change out the filter regularly as well—once every three months is recommended—to avoid any buildup inside the pump itself.

Plug in and refill your water fountain, then test it out to see how it sounds and looks.

Once you’ve plugged in and filled up your fountain, it’s time to test it out.

Using a bucket of water, test the pump by pouring water into the base of your fountain. If it makes noise, then you are good to go! If not, check your plug or fuse (if applicable) as well as contacting manufacturer if anything else.
