Solar Fountain – Floating Garden Pump with Four Interchangeable Nozzles

Solar Fountain – Drop It In, Wait for Sun, Watch the Water Go Up

A floating pump with a monocrystalline panel on top that runs straight off daylight, with no cable and no socket involved. It moves up to 210 litres an hour and throws a jet as high as 50 cm depending on the nozzle you clip on. The whole unit is 13.5 cm across, so it suits a bird bath, a small pond or a patio water bowl.

Why choose a solar garden fountain?

Running mains power out to a pond means a trench, an outdoor socket and a bill. A floating solar pump skips all three and starts working the moment the sun hits it. Moving it somewhere else is a matter of lifting it out of the water.

• Monocrystalline panel — Runs on daylight alone, with no cable across the lawn.
• Four spray nozzles — Swap between a narrow column, a wide spread and two patterns between.
• Up to 210 L per hour — Enough circulation to keep a small bird bath from going stagnant.
• Jet up to 50 cm — Visible from the kitchen window without soaking the surroundings.
• Built-in 1000 mAh cell — Keeps the jet running through a passing cloud.

Moving water in the garden, and nothing plugged into anything.

Float it in at least 3 cm of water and keep the panel clear of leaves and overhanging branches. Choose a nozzle that keeps the spray inside the basin, because a tall jet in a small bird bath empties it fast. Lift it out and rinse the intake screen every few weeks so the flow stays steady.
