Sizing a pond fountain for your pond!

When selecting the correct size pond fountain, you will need to consider a few things:

A pond fountain is much more than just a beautiful display. It aerates, breaks up water columns, retards algae growth, and helps prevent water-born pests. In order to do all of this, it must fit your pond correctly. These tips will help you choose the right size!

1. The diameter of your pond.

• 10' to 70' - Any Calais or Vienna Fountain
• 30' to 150'  -The Amazing 1/2 HP Fountain
• 1/3 acre to 1 1/2 acre - Amazing 1HP or 1 1/2HP Fountain

If your pond is elongated, you might consider 2 or 3 fountains, as one in the middle might not aerate the ends.


If you have a lot of fish in the pond or extream algae problems, you might consider an aerator.


Our fountains are designed to work in fresh and salt water. In natural or lined ponds. The condition of the pond will dictate how often the pond fountain will need to be cleaned. Ponds with a lot of debri or algae will need to be cleaned more often. It is important to keep the intake of the fountain clear so that it will maximize the life of the motor.
