Spring and Fall Water Fountain Cleaning and Water Treatment

Seasonal cleaning and monthly maintenance is important to keep your fountain beautiful and functioning properly. Over time algae growth will occur due to the water and light combination associated with outdoor or indoor fountain use. You will also experience some mineral deposit buildup due to minerals found in the water. Algae growth and mineral buildup will occur in all fountains including concrete, cast stone, resin, brass or copper.

We do recommend that you use a water clarifier to help slow the growth of algae and keep mineral deposit build up to a minimum between cleaning and maintenance. You may purchase water clarifier by clicking on the following link. Follow directions on the bottle for proper use.
