Depending on your requirements, you can select from mounted or freestanding types. Small, self-contained mounted wall fountains can be hung on any surface. Ordinarily made of resin (to look like stone) or fiber glass, these types of fountains are lightweight and easy to hang. Stand-alone fountains, often referred to as floor fountains, are sizable, have a basin located on the ground and a smooth side which leans against a wall. Typically constructed of cast stone, this kind of water feature is not limited in weight.
Landscape professionals often recommend a customized fountain for a brand new or existing wall. The basin and all the required plumbing are best installed by a qualified mason. It is also essential to add a spout or fountain mask to build it into the wall. The cohesive look provided by custom-made wall fountains make them appear to be part of the landscape instead of an afterthought.
Eco-Friendly Fountains: Good for the Environment
Eco-Friendly Fountains: Good for the Environment Are you seeking to adorn your residence? Well, think about adding elegance and value to your residence by installing a solar powered water fountain. Solar powered fountains can be a wiser investment versus electric ones because they not only improve one's well-being but they offer other interesting monetary perks. Even though there may be a significantly greater cost at the beginning, the long-term investment will make it worthwhile.
Your monthly electric bill will most probably increase with running water fountains. Keep in mind that while you may not see any rewards right away, your home will be worth more further down the road.
The increased prices resulting from using more electricity is not the only factor, it also damages our eco-system. Becoming “green” is just one of the pros of installing a solar water fountain running only on the power of the sun. Using solar energy to run a water feature is not only favorable to our environment but it also heats and cools our homes.
This type of fountain needs less maintenance than others. Since these do not work using an electric motor that could clog up with debris, they need little cleaning. And since there is little cleaning to do, you will have more time to play!
