Water Treatments

To get your fountains clean like new, you will need to use one of the quality water treatments that we have here at Water Fountain Pros. It is a fact that you will likely deal with slime. Although distilled water will help cut down on this on indoor water features, you can’t stop the rain from filling up your outdoor one.

Why Fountains Get Slimy

It does not matter if you have city, well or spring water, there is a good chance that it will be full of minerals. Some water has a higher content than others. Unfortunately, with use, your fountain will develop a ring where the water level is, or every surface that the water touches could just become pretty gross to touch.

Your first instinct may be to grab a scrub brush, but this is a horrible idea. Although your fountain may seem heavy duty, brushes can scratch them, or at least dull their appearance. Even those that are cast of plastic resins are often filled with limestone dust, marble dust or something similar to offer a rich luster. Using a water treatment will get your fountain sparkling clean without compromising the finish.

Prevention

Want to cut down on the amount of slime you are dealing with? Maybe you simply do not have the time to constantly buy distilled water to fill your fountain or perhaps your fountain is far too big for this to even be a practical option. A product such as Protec Fountain Cleaner will keep the surfaces scale-free whether you use distilled water or not. It is inexpensive, and it is even safe for your pets, just in case you suspect your four-legged friend is helping themselves to a drink when you are not around.

Heavy Duty Cleaning

Do you have a fountain that you have neglected or perhaps you just moved into a home that has an old fountain outside in the garden you would like to make use of. Well, our Hard Water Fountain Kit with Spot X and Magnet is the perfect solution for you. The X-Spot will help you clean away all those old lime deposits or white scale while the Magnetic Water Treatment System will keep it looking its best by preventing future scale. This will go a long way in helping to preserve your pump too because everything that builds up on the fountain surfaces also affect the pump and can compromise its efficiency.
