FAQ

FAQs

What makes the VFX Series different from standard pond fountains?

The VFX Series delivers both strong water circulation/aeration and a visual “V‑shaped” spray pattern. It’s designed for biological improvement of the water (via circulation) and aesthetic appeal.

I see LED lighting is optional—what should I expect when I add the lighting kit?

With the lighting kit you get underwater LED fixtures that attach to the fountain float, enabling night‑time visual impact. The lighting extends your enjoyment of the water feature into the evening and adds property value.

How do I select the correct horsepower and sizing for my lake or pond?

Consider the size of the water body, desired spray height/width, and depth. For example:

½ HP covers smaller ponds (5′ high x 15′ wide)
HP covers larger areas (8′ high x 26′ wide)
Choosing too small limits impact; too large may be inefficient.

What minimum water depth is required for safe operation?

Models list a minimum depth as low as 17.5 inches for some VFX units. Ensure your site meets this requirement or else the fountain may operate poorly or damage the lake bottom. Contact a sales consultant if you have questions.

Does the LED lighting kit increase the operating cost significantly?

Only modestly. The fountain motor is the major draw. The LED fixtures consume relatively low power. You still should size your power supply and timer accordingly to account for both motor and lights.

Can the LED lighting be added later if I buy the fountain now without lights?

Yes—many buyers start with the fountain then upgrade lighting later. Make sure your float and mooring setup allow for the addition of the lighting fixtures and the low‑voltage cables.

What maintenance should I factor in for both the fountain and lighting?

Rinse the float, screen, and nozzle of debris or algae.
Inspect LED housing and lens for clarity and seal integrity.
Check moorings and cables for wear.
Schedule a start‑up inspection each season before full use.

How do I protect the lighting kit from damage (e.g., docks, winter, ice)?

Use caution during freeze‑up. If ice is expected, the fountain (and lighting) should be removed or raised to prevent structural damage. While the LED housing is underwater‑rated, ice movement can damage wiring or lens.

Will the fountain and lighting help with water quality or is it purely decorative?

It helps both. The fountain moves water, promotes oxygenation, and reduces stagnation—benefits for aquatic ecology. The lighting adds decorative value and extends enjoyment into dusk/after dark.

What are the top installation tips for best performance?

Choose a location away from heavy debris or overhanging vegetation.
Secure moorings to prevent float drift.
Ensure power cable and lighting cable are properly routed and secured.
Use appropriate timer settings for lights (e.g., dusk to late‑evening).
Angle mooring so spray pattern aligns with shoreline or focal point—and lighting doesn’t shine into neighboring houses.
