Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I choose between 115v and 230v?
A: Choose based on your available power infrastructure. Most residential applications use 115v. Commercial installations or locations with existing 230v power should select the 230v option.
Q: What's the difference between an aerating fountain and a display fountain?
A: Aerating fountains are designed to maximize oxygen transfer with spray patterns that create maximum water surface area exposure. Display fountains prioritize visual aesthetics. This aerating model focuses on water quality and fish health.
Q: What size pond is this fountain suitable for?
A: The 1/2HP Aerating Fountain is designed for medium ponds and small lakes requiring efficient aeration. It provides essential oxygenation while maintaining energy efficiency.
Q: Is installation difficult?
A: The floating design simplifies installation. Position the fountain at your desired location, connect the power cable to shore power, and secure with mooring lines as needed.
Q: How does this fountain improve water quality?
A: The aerating spray pattern maximizes oxygen transfer into the water while releasing harmful gases, preventing fish kills and supporting healthy aquatic ecosystems.
