Here at Love My Pond we stock a large range of fountain nozzles, floating fountains and aerating fountains. We also offer lights and other accessories. We know that all these options can be confusing so we put together this easy reference Quick Start Guide to help you decide which solution is right for you and your water body.
Floating Fountains:
Floating fountains are easier to install and maintain in large ponds and dams. Most manufacturers make the nozzles interchangeable, giving you the flexibility to choose new patterns as you desire.
Note: Floating fountains are driven by an impeller rather than a propeller, which means the aeration is not as effective as an aerating fountain.
Sub-Surface Add Ons:
We all know that aeration is super important in maintaining the health of your water body so if you’re looking to up your oxygen levels as well as improve your aesthetics, consider installing a sub-surface aeration system combined with a floating fountain. You won’t lose any decorative elements whilst still blasting your dam or pond with powerful bubbles.
Aerating Fountains:
If you are looking for both decoration and aeration in your large pond or dam, then an aerating fountain is ideal. Aerating fountains use a combination of a propeller and nozzles to create a lovely ‘upside-down cone’ effect.
Nozzles:
Our fountain nozzles can be tailored to fit almost any size pipe and, as noted above, are generally interchangeable so you can even create your own custom system.
Lights:
Fountain lights are a beautiful addition to any body of water and give you the ability to create breathtaking light effects. Many people feel that a lighting system for their pond or dam will be unnecessarily expensive, but most modern pond lights feature LED’s. This means that they are designed to last much longer, increase energy efficiency and provide a brighter light than the halogen alternative.
Feel free to contact us if you require any further advice or assistance and don’t forget to fill out a service request if you’d like someone else to deal with installation and/or maintenance for you.
