Flower Mound Water Feature Maintenance

Outdoor water fountains are up against the elements in the same way that a swimming pool is. The biggest difference is that they don’t get the same sort of attention. If a pool starts to develop algae it is a top priority but contaminated fountain water will fly under the radar for weeks or even months. A dirty fountain means health and safety risks as well as damage to structures and internal systems. Professional Flower Mound water feature maintenance keeps water clean and flowing, removes debris and protects water systems from unnecessary damage. 

When clean and running smoothly a water fountain can add comfort, ambiance and curb appeal to any outdoor space. The trouble is that keeping them clean can feel like a full-time job! Fluctuating heat, organic debris, shade, covers and other factors will play a huge role in the overall condition of your fountain. Instead of spending your leisure time skimming, scrubbing and trying to balance water chemistry, let a local expert handle it for you! 

Water Feature Care: How to Keep Water Systems Flowing Smoothly 

When you want to clean an outdoor water fountain you need to be careful about what type of tools and cleansers you are using. Grabbing a bottle of bleach-based cleaners and spraying away will strip protective coatings and create pathways for water to reach vulnerable areas. Keeping up with a proper maintenance place prevents damage and reduces the need for premature (and expensive) repairs and replacements. 

Instead of waiting for a worst-case scenario our team of local experts have broken water fountain cleaning down into a multi-step approach that address structures and systems from top to bottom, inside and out. 

Water Treatments: Whether you are dealing with an indoor fountain in the lobby of a building, an outdoor fountain on a golf course or water feature right in your own front yard, water chemistry is key. You aren’t meant to swim in a fountain but all intakes is one person to come into contact with contaminated water to cause serious illness. Green, swampy water is visually unappealing too! Puddle technicians provide routine testing and balancing that covers sanitizer levels, pH levels, total alkalinity and calcium. Speciality chemical combinations prevent algae, reduce the risk of mineral deposits and buildup and clear away cloudiness. 

Debris Removal: In an outdoor or garden fountain, there is no way to prevent debris from landing in your fountain. Depending on the size of your fountain you might find yourself having to wade out into the water to skim out unwanted items. Fitting this into an already busy workday can feel impossible. The longer that organic items sit, the more likely they are to sink and cause permanent staining or break apart, becoming even more difficult to remove. Instead of struggling through DIY removal, call Puddle! Our technicians use top of the line tools like manual vacuums, speciality soft bristle brushes and cleansers to remove dirt, discolouration and debris without causing damage. 

Internal Systems: Dirty water or clogged filters will put added strain on water pumps, motors and even plumbing lines. By keeping things clean you are able to prolong the lifespans of key components like fountain pumps. Puddle Pros will flush lines, check filters and make sure that your system is flowing smoothly. 

Seasonal Fountain Care: Even with a routine maintenance plan it is important to perform deep cleanings to keep your water systems in great shape. This means taking the time to drain the fountain, scrub vinyl liners or pressure wash concrete structures to get rid of discolouration. Special combinations of chemicals run through water lines loosening and dragging out buildup and debris. Water is then drained, fountains are scrubbed clean and then it is time to add water again!
