FAQs

How long does the water feature need to be in the sun to operate?

The water feature requires at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily to fully charge its battery and operate effectively throughout the day and into the evening. Performance may vary based on sunlight intensity.

Can I use this water feature indoors?

This water feature is designed for outdoor use. Indoor use is not recommended due to potential water splashing and the reliance on direct sunlight for solar power.

What kind of maintenance is required?

Regular maintenance includes cleaning the water feature and pump to prevent algae and debris, topping up the water level, and ensuring the solar panel is clean. For winter, it should be drained and stored indoors.

Does the solar panel need to be attached to the feature?

The solar panel typically has a cable to connect to the pump, allowing you to position the panel in the sunniest spot while the feature itself can be placed elsewhere, provided the cable reaches.

What happens on cloudy days?

On cloudy days, the solar panel will receive less sunlight, which may result in reduced water flow or shorter operating times for the pump and lights. The feature may not operate at all if sunlight is insufficient.

Is the water feature noisy?

The feature is designed to produce a soothing sound of flowing water, which is generally considered relaxing. It is not typically noisy, but the sound level can depend on the water flow rate.

Troubleshooting

Water feature not working

Ensure the solar panel is clean and receiving direct sunlight. Check that the pump is submerged and free of blockages. Verify all cable connections are secure.

Pump has low water flow

Clean the pump's intake filter for any debris. Ensure the water level in the reservoir is sufficient. Check the tubing for kinks or blockages.

LED lights are not illuminating

Confirm the solar panel is clean and has had sufficient sunlight for charging. Check the LED connection to the solar panel. If the issue persists, there might be a fault with the LEDs.

Water feature making unusual noise

Ensure the pump is fully submerged and seated correctly. Check for any debris caught in the impeller or housing of the pump.
