    Thanks so much for posting this….I already had two of these solar fountains and they have been great but had started losing pump power. I had no idea you could dismantle this way for cleaning, I’ve followed your instructions this morning and they are as good as new. Thanks!

    I have this same fountain and my favorite tip is to just use the funnel piece on its own. That way it just bubbles up and doesn’t spray too high or wide. I have a very small foundation dish and also live in a very windy area so using just the funnel attachment alone allows the unit to be used with a smaller fountain footprint

  • @ead9726
    @ead9726 7 месяцев назад +4

    We have one similar, but it empties the water from bird bath after a very short while, ok our bird bath isn’t huge. So if using it in a bird bath keep an eye on the water as it will ruin the pump if left to run an almost empty bird bath. I was constantly filling the bath. Now it is in a large planter filled with water.

I had to set the fountain to the lowest setting because the wind made the water spray out of the fountain and I would run out of water everyday. Yes i used the stones to keep it from floating around!

I like that you used stones to keep it from floating around, I'm going to use that idea.

    That was actually very helpful thank you I couldn’t decide which type to buy after buying one that said it could be used for ponds, aquariums or fountains but it was only about an inch across and the stem was only about 2 inches tall and the water line minimum and maximum was about a half an inch apart which means if the water level drops or raises for obvious reasons. It stops working so I returned it to buy this one.

Either mine is defective or it needs real sunlight to work.

Once a week, I remove all the water, clean the bowl with a little bleach, and then clean the pump area real good and put it all back together..

    Hello dear friend
    We are Amazon sellers, and now we have a new type of solar fountain. Because it is a new product, we need a publicity to make more people aware of it. We are currently looking for the right person. After watching your video, we really like the style of the video you posted, so we found you.
    Looking forward to your reply.

    Is there a link for this particular fountain? As another commenter stated, there are many AISITIN fountains. I want to ensure I get the one you used (I wish to test it out if it beats the Vlajero fountain I tried previously, which broke/died after 4 weeks of daily use).

    You mention a battery. Where is it and how do you change it?

    What happens when it's cloudy or in monsoon??
    Does it work??

      Yes, until the internal solar charged battery is depleted.

    How deep does the water need to be for the solar fountain to work
