Garden Fountain Pump

Any garden fountain pump has two main specifications that decide the power of the pump.

The first is the GPH value, which is called as “Gallons Per Hour”. This decides how many gallons of water the pump can push in one hour. For a standard indoor fountain you must have a 50-100 gallons of water per hour to run smoothly.

Secondly you must look for the Max head value of the pump. This is unit of height measured in feet. A fountain pump with 3 Max Head can push the water up to 3 feet above it’s base. So while buying the garden fountain pump make sure you have measured all the dimensions of your fountain so that you get the right kind of pump for your fountain.

Most pumps for fountains are submersible types so that they can be hidden from the visitors and at the same time produce less noise. Garden fountain pumps run on a direct AC supply of electricity. Now a days most garden fountain pumps can also run with a supply of the solar cell.

Solar garden fountains have been developed which convert sunlight into electricity and rub the fountain pump easily during day hours. Thus if you are looking for a new or replacement garden fountain pumps then make sure you get the best deals and the right make for your particular garden fountain.
