Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use tap water, or is rainwater better?
Rainwater is gentler for wildlife and helps reduce limescale, but tap water is fine too. Just fill your fountain and allow a day for chlorine to dissipate before heavy use.
Do I need electricity to run a fountain?
Not always. Solar units are popular. Mains-powered features offer reliable flowing water; if you use mains, ensure outdoor-rated cable and RCD protection.
What’s the easiest way to prevent algae?
Site in light dappled shade, keep the water running, skim debris, and give it a quick rinse regularly. Avoid nutrient build-up from soil or leaves.
Will a water feature attract frogs and other animals?
Yes, water features tend to invite amphibians and pollinators. Provide an exit route and avoid steep, sheer sides if possible.
