Everlasting Beauty Of Garden Fountains
by Tara Daniels
Garden fountains are popular since ancient times. At that time, construction of fountains depended on the source of water and the natural terrain because there were no pumps. Thanks to the water supply and electricity, as well as solar pumps, it is possible to set the fountain at any location.
The sound of water, together with these tiny, glittering drops, creates very nice, cozy atmosphere you will enjoy having in your lovely garden. If you don't have one, a terrace or a small patio will do. You don't really need a large space for it, because all sizes and types are available. Besides looking great, even a small fountain will muffle the noise from the outside.
Maybe you don't have enough space to put one large, basin type fountain there, but you can surely make space for one little, elegant wall-mounted piece. Pedestal types need more space, but hanging ones can hang from a tree, or from a simple hook in your patio. They will all create different atmosphere to enjoy in, regardless of their size.
Small tabletop models look great on your office desk, for example. They can be placed in any indoor or outdoor space, and they can even operate using batteries. They are especially practical for greenhouses, enclosed patios and similar spaces where you keep your flowers. They will provide additional moisture your plants will appreciate.
Birdbaths have double purpose. Birds are attracted to a sound of running water, and you would probably enjoy having them near you. Waterfall types work on the same principle, using water pump, but in this case water is tumbling over the rocks. Whichever type you choose, you need to understand that when water falls from greater heights, produces quite a strong sound.
Of course, you cannot place an enormous waterfall type in your small city patio. It all depends on your house style and of actual size of the existing space. Some materials will always look great, such as natural stone, for example. Terracotta is also quite appealing, but iron can look interesting as well.
Every pedestal should be properly fixed and weighted. Smaller fountain is quite easy to install, you just have to follow the instructions. Larger ones can be too heavy to install them by yourself, and you should definitely call a professional to help you. Most types have to be filled with water once, because installed pump uses the same water over and over again. You will have to add some once in a while.
Your electrical water pump needs to be strong enough for the purpose. Sometimes people use weaker pumps, and get disappointing by their results. If you aren't sure about it, ask a professional. When buying sets, pumps are usually included. Some types don't require too much strength, but some do.
Water pump requires electricity. Before setting the basin make sure you have an outlet nearby. Plan how you can protect and camouflage your cable. Small garden fountains can be operated with a pump that is powered by solar energy. In this case, make sure that you place the collectors on a sunny position.
