Just bought a fountain for my flower garden. Setting it up this weekend! You just gave me a smart, easy, and fast way for cleaning and maintaining. Thanks!

My fountain has calcium and algae. The summer Houston, Texas heat has prevented me from getting out there to clean it so, here I go in late September, when the mornings are slightly cooler. Thank you for the tips!

Thanks for sharing! Just moved to Florida and have a fountain and trying to figure out the best way to care for it. Thanks for your help

Thank you 😊 I'm new to owning an outside fountain. I turn it off everyday. Not anymore. 😅I'm going to go clean it now and properly maintain it.

I have a fountain with a large base pond so can’t blow it out, but I’ll use your trick for the two basins!

I use a spare garden hose, run one end downhill or to a drain if possible, then prime the hose from the hand sprayer, putting them both into the water for about 20 seconds until the suction gets going to siphon all the water out. Granted I do have a 20 foot slope to the street 😊

Thank you for the video.
But my problem how to clean inner pipes. It stops working.

Thanks for this video! What if the reservoir is under the fountain (underground) - how do we empty the dirty algae water from there?

Can you add links to the Alge clarifier in the descriptions of videos?
Or include the brands you like like use?

You may he able to get a nice affiliate commission from the manufacturer aswell.

Thanks

That looked pretty easy to do Al! Good job!

Will the clarifier hurt the birds that will be drinking that water? Need to know so I can put some in mine.

Easy peasy took me all of 15 minutes without tipping or draining! Mine cleared up in 2 seconds with an EGO 530 CFM!

We just bought a fountain almost just like this. I’m curious, what GPH rated pump are you using? And also, how often do you have to add water?

[kennethpayne]

What about cleaning the brown water out in a backyard fountain? I cleaned the pump storage water and refilled with fresh water and it's brown again.

[aguilarjaneth]

How to clean the pump inside it. I just want to remove everything, the water is not pumping enough

[andrearutland]

Hi, what is the brand of pump you use?
