Versatile Solutions for Every Water Feature
Whether you’re enhancing a small birdbath or adding movement to a larger pond, the Floating Solar Fountain offers a practical and eco-friendly solution. Available in 3W, 3.5W, and 6.5W versions, it adds visual interest while supporting water circulation.
The floating design allows installation in water features of varying depths, while solar-powered operation removes the need for wiring or mains electricity. The built-in battery stores energy during brighter conditions to help smooth performance when sunlight levels fluctuate.
Perfect for Small Birdbaths
Gentle Water Sprays: Helps attract birds while reducing stagnant water.
Compact Models: 3W and 3.5W options suit smaller features.
Customisable Nozzles: Adjust spray height and pattern to suit your setup.
Enhance Medium Containers
Versatile Placement: Suitable for small ponds and decorative containers.
Solar Powered: Operates using sunlight with battery support.
Low Running Costs: No electricity connection required.
Maintain Larger Ponds
Higher Output Option: The 6.5W model offers increased flow and spray height.
Decorative Effect: Adds visible movement to open water areas.
Compatible with Deeper Water Features
Floating Design: Easy installation without fixed mounting.
Stabilisation Options: Use included arms or fishing line to hold position.
Flexible Setup: Choose a power option to match feature size and exposure.
As a solar-powered product, performance depends on available sunlight. For best results, position the fountain where the solar panel receives direct, unobstructed light throughout the day.
Key Features
Simple Installation: Place on the water surface and allow sunlight to power operation.
Battery Backup: Stores energy collected during brighter conditions.
Eco-Friendly: Solar-powered operation with no electricity costs.
Versatile Use: Suitable for ponds, birdbaths, and decorative features.
Follow this simple setup guide to ensure reliable performance from your fountain.
Correct positioning is key to getting the best results throughout the year.
1. Prepare
Clear pond or water feature of debris
Choose a location with direct sunlight
Unpack and check all components
2. Assemble
Connect the solar panel to the pump
Attach the pump unit securely
Select your preferred spray nozzle
3. Position
Place centrally in the water feature
Avoid contact with pond edges or sides
Ensure the solar panel faces south
4. Test & Adjust
Allow the panel to receive direct sunlight
Check spray pattern and stability
Adjust nozzle height if required
Securing Your Solar Fountain
Proper securing helps maintain consistent performance and prevents movement caused by wind,
wildlife, or water flow.
Included Stabilisers
Built-in plastic support arms
Clip directly onto the fountain base
Helps prevent drifting in smaller features
For Larger Ponds
Use clear fishing line if required
Create two or three gentle anchor points
Discrete and almost invisible once installed
Best Practices
Leave slight slack for water level changes
Anchor to stable pond edges or features
Avoid over-tightening
Positioning Tips
Centre placement gives the best visual effect
Solar panel should face south where possible
Avoid shaded areas at all times
Seasonal Performance Notes
Solar fountains rely entirely on available sunlight. For best results, the solar panel must be
completely free from shade and facing south. During winter months, operation may be limited to
short periods on very bright days, and performance can vary significantly depending on conditions.
Maintenance & Care
Clean the solar panel and spray nozzles regularly to maintain efficiency.
Store indoors during freezing conditions and periodically check securing methods,
especially after strong winds or heavy rain.
Your fountain uses direct sunlight to power a small water pump,
creating a decorative and self-sustaining water feature without the need for
mains electricity or wiring.
1. Solar Panels
Built-in or external solar panels capture sunlight
Photovoltaic cells convert light into usable electrical energy
2. Sunlight Absorption
Panels absorb direct sunlight throughout the day
Performance is strongest when panels are south-facing and unshaded
3. Electrical Power Generation
Captured solar energy is converted into electrical power
This electricity is supplied directly to the integrated pump
4. Water Pump Operation
The pump draws water from the pond or water feature
Water is pushed through the fountain nozzle to create movement
5. Adjustable Fountain Effects
Interchangeable spray heads allow different effects
Spray height and pattern vary depending on sunlight intensity
6. Seasonal Performance
Solar fountains rely entirely on available sunlight
During winter, shorter days and lower sun levels can limit operation
Any winter performance is dependent on very bright, clear conditions
Summary: Floating solar fountains work best in bright,
unobstructed sunlight. Correct positioning plays a major role in performance,
with strongest and most consistent results typically seen during spring and
summer months.
This is a great little pump/fountain co.bo in one floating package. It's great there are no cables to separate solar panels and it does have (intentional???) hoops on the underside that allow you to anchor it to a weight. However it does seem to only run in direct sunlight (i.e. in the middle of a blazing sunny day when it was in partial shade from a narrow cherry tree it stopped [despite the ambient light still being bright/strong])
My biggest grumble tho' is having to "code break" the timer function. I had no idea I'd activated it and now have to try and work out, with no instructions, how to deactivate it with only 4 buttons on the remote of which 1 is labelled "timer". Instructions would help or a more intuitive system. But the product works and looks great
Spring 2018 Edition
Fantastic, love it. Can't use cables as foxes chew them so this has worked perfectly for us.
Nice floating fountain
Have enjoyed this item very much. Easy to set up, but *must* be in a location that is sunny for much of the day to get the full effect. Nice to watch at night, but save battery power for it during the day if possible. Haven't mastered the multiple clicks for 1,2,3 and 4 hour durations yet. Also, if you have more than one of these fountains, the remote will operate them both simultaneously, but for independent control they must be quite a distance apart (>8-10 metres).
Finally a reliable floating fountain
I have tested a lot of these and to be honest out of all of the floating pumps I have tested this one is by FAR the most reliable, as the solar cells sit on top of the unit without an angle of any sort,
they have to be high quality and numerous to work, this fountain checks all the boxes.
Very Cool floating Fountain
Very Cool I love the remote, you can save the power more easily works much better on brighter days than dull ones but we really love our floating fountain
