Wall water fountains basically consist of the basin, waterspout and a decorative
background. These are available in various styles. Stone fountains are very popular but
if you want to personalize your wall fountain you may do so by using mosaic tile
patterns or art bricks.
Water noise is something that is also quite popular with wall fountains. You may choose
the water noise to suit a garden, a gushing noise may be better appreciated in a noisy
garden where a trickle would go unnoticed. An inside solar water fountain would have a
greater calming affect. With some of the fountains you can control the water and create
sprays or bubbles, some fountains have settings to control water flow which changes the
noise and appearance.
Material choice determines appearance, durability and price of fountains. Materials like
rocks, pebbles and clay tiles create a very rustic and earthy look suited for the outdoors.
Marble has a beautiful appearance but is not recommended in freezing cold
temperatures. Metals like brass, bronze and copper show a more rustic look. Along with
acrylic and fiberglass there is a large variety of materials to choose from.
You always want to check the wall strength for compatibility with the loading of wall
mounted fountains and ensure secure fixing to avoid accidents. Pedestal basin's with
back plates are also available and can be installed against the wall.
As in any outdoor installation, water features for the garden should have low
maintenance. Also, with any outdoor installation make sure you have enough room to
allow access for occasional cleaning.
Buying a fountain that is suited for you, your garden space and style will bring you great
enjoyment. There is really no construction or renovation or running of wires or water
lines. Once installed it is basically maintenance free.

tripped over them. It's amazing how far technology has come. You can move your solar
powered garden fountain anywhere. As long as you get some sun on the panel you can
even get fiber-optic sun powered flowers to light up your garden at night. Wall fountains
appeal to a lot of people because they look modern and trendy, and they are something

tranquility of running water.
Once people find solar power outdoor products and realize how much money they save
and it helps our environment they turn their buying habits to solar power and learn to
landscape with solar power.
