Fountain heads add drama and interest to even the smallest watergarden and can be an exquisite centerpiece for a large pond. Lighting lends an enchanting touch to these water features extending the enjoyment of the watergarden far into the evening hours.

In addition to the magical sights and sounds, fountain heads promote gas exchange by breaking the surface of the water. Water movement also helps reduce nuisance algae populations.

Fish frequently gather and play in the splash for hours. Whether your taste is simple and elegant or dramatic and bold, we have the fountain head and accessories to meet your need.

Fountain Heads
Fountain heads produce spray in a variety of patterns. The graphic at right illustrates jet, tulip, mushroom, and 2- and 3-tier sprays. Bubblers, bells and swirls are also available. Little Giant and Danner supply a wide variety of popular models for the home watergarden.

Most fountain heads for the home watergarden are constructed of durable plastic and provide years of reliable service. Periodic cleaning to keep jets free of algae and debris ensures an even, regular spray pattern. A small brush is perfect for this job.

Fountains can be powered by submersible or external pumps or they can operated by their own pumps. Diverter valves are designed to direct flow from a main pump to other water features. Extension tubes are used to raise fountain heads above the surface and to adjust the height.

Fountain Tips

Fountains should be disconnected if the pond will be unattended for long periods. Take care to keep fountain water from splashing outside the pond as this can eventually drain the pond. Wind can also blow the spray outside the pond. Fountains should be disconnected in the winter months.

Don't allow the water to splash outside the pond - will eventually drain the pond. Wind is a factor. During hottest months of summer fountains will cause water in pon to evaporate more quickly.
