The Setting Up Of Wall Fountains

By Virgil Wortham


Installing of wall fountains at your residence is much simpler than you believe it is. They in fact bring a touch of class and a stunning improvement to your decoration. Firstly you have to choose a spot in which you want the wall fountain to be situated. Ensure the stability of the wall so that it will never destroy or collapse. Look for an outlet to see if there is a spot to plug the water fountain. If you buy a fountain make sure that everything is found in the box and all the pieces. Confirm if the wall surface has a holding mechanism as well as measure the wall first. Bigger wall fountains may only be mounted by the group instead of you mounting it yourself. You also need to look for the proper wall stud.

The majority of the wall fountains are weighty which means you should not cling them directly on a sheet rock. The fountains that are built from rock and slate are the heaviest types. Fountains that weigh more than 30 lbs have to be suspended with supports. While the lighter versions could be suspended with a picture hanging set. Just for safety you must mount the wall fountain in a way that the electrical outlet and the cord are undetected in back of the fountain. Mount the water fountain in a place so that it is not always being bumped by people walking by.

You require a wireless drill to screw in the bracket and a level device to help you set the fountain perfectly. A measuring tape, pencil and some screws will also be needed. To start with mark the place where you will install the water fountain. Just be sure that it is installed where it will fit the decoration and somewhere in a height. You also need to find out how tall and wide the fountain is before putting it on the wall. Place all the products which will fit easily and quickly together.

The next step for the wall fountains is to install the bracket and mark the spots where the screws will be placed. Once you have installed the bracket, then you lift the rock and connect it to the bracket. After the stone is connected to the bracket then connect the bottom plate which will hold the water. Fill the reservoir at the bottom with water and make use of distilled water that is free from solids and microorganisms. This filtered water helps mineral deposits from forming in the water. Refill the water inside the fountain often as it should be refilled once per week. There must not be excessive water in the wall fountain or else it may splash and end up wetting the furniture. As insufficient water could also be a problem, which may leave spots on the pump motor.

Once it's filled with water the wall fountain is ready to start. Make sure that the parts are installed successfully. You can also add pebbles to the base container and adore the charm of your wall fountain. Those wall fountains make a unique dramatic statement wherever they are placed and are easy to maintain.
