Description

Enjoy the sights and sounds of the Smart Solar Blue Ceramic Cascade Water Fountain in your yard or patio. Water tumbles from one blue-glazed ceramic vessel to the next and then recycles back to the top via a hidden solar-powered pump. The solar panel can be placed up to 16 feet from the water fountain and moved to capture maximum power from the sun's rays. The bowls lift out of the weather-resistant metal frame for easy storage and maintenance.

Maximize effectiveness by placing the panel in full sunlight, avoiding shade. Angle the solar panel each season to absorb maximum sunlight. The panel can be wall-mounted, stand-mounted, or standing alone with the included hardware for a variety of placement options. A 16-foot cord attaches to the solar panel, making it easy to position almost anywhere. This product carries a one year warranty.

This fountain has a one-gallon water capacity and the bottom bowl is approximately 5.5 inches tall and 13 inches in diameter.

Special Note: Solar bird baths and fountains require plenty of direct sunlight to operate properly. Please be sure to have a sunny spot to place your bath or fountain. Also, the pump must never be operated dry (out of water). Dry operation permanently damages the pump.

Have it set up beside my patio where I can see & hear it. I really like it & am hoping when the garden fills out & the Birds return they'll like it too. I get comments like ,Thats Really Nice.Where did you get it? I refer them to your site. I agree with others that its sensitive to solar ouput.But,IT IS SOLAR!The Panel is Adjustable & I placed It where I could reach it easily & I just adjust the panel when needed.
So it runs much of the time, no problem for me when its off. LOVE IT

I thought this fountain would be fabulous...I was sorely disappointed when I began assembly and realized how poorly designed the actual stand is. The ceramic is substandard quality, the glazing is very poor. The top jar that starts the water cascade doesn't fit in the stand well and sits crooked. I was also disappointed that the fountain only works with direct sun, even slight cloud cover or evening sun doesn't run the system. The solar panel does not store any energy. Today, while cleaning and refreshing the water the entire thing tipped over (in my opinion, because of the poor stand and design) and smashed. I am saddened, not over the loss of the fountain, but over the loss of the money. [...] Poor Design, I would not recommend to anyone who has pets or children as it topples easily. Also, plan on the water only with full sunshine. [...]

Comments about Smart Solar Blue Ceramic Cascade Bird Bath Fountain:

I use the fountain to enhance my garden area. It is a beautiful color and attracts butterflies etc. The reservoir has to be filled several times a day because when sun is barely shining the pump may still be working but hardly at all which then makes each bowl only trickle and water then vacates onto ground and slowly emptying bottom large bowl which then exposes pump to dryness.

Comments about Smart Solar Blue Ceramic Cascade Bird Bath Fountain:

This fountain is so beautiful. We love the color!! Guess we didn't realize that in order to run, the solar panel needs intense constant sunlight. The flow of water slows or stops when a small amount of cloud cover occurs, or if someone blocks the panel momentarily. We like the sound of the water flowing from pot to pot. We placed the fountain in the backyard in a small area near our deck. The solar panel gets plenty of sunlight and will run continuously with the exception of the above issues. We are thinking of replacing the solar with a pump from a fishtank and using electric.

Customer Q & A

1 - 5 of 12

1 2

Q1: How much water will the bowl hold?

A: The bowl has a water capacity of 1 gallon.

Q2: Why is there an 8 hour usage limit on the AC adapter?

A: This 8 hour limit is a recommended time of usage. If you run the pump continuously for too long, it could burn out.

Q3: What are the dimensions of the bottom bowl?

A: The bottom bowl is about 5.5 inches tall and about 13 inches diameter.

Q4: How easy and how expensive is it to replace the pump if it goes out? Also,how long do

A: It is very easy to change the pump by just un-attaching it to the solar panel and the hose. Unfortunately we do not offer replacement parts. Please contact Smart Solar directly.

Q5: I just purchased this foutain and Love it..Two questions: Does it harm the fountain and solar panel to be in the rain. Will the panel absorb the sun's rays for future use?. I thought I could plug it in all day,but may have to buy another for my outdoor electrical socket..Thanks

A: It is not harmful for rain to hit the solar panel. The solar panel does not store energy.
