Fort Myers Water Feature Maintenance

What better way to showcase the beauty of southwest Florida than to utilize it in a flashy way? Water fountains and features take the beach mentality and bring it right to your front door. Whether you have installed them yourself, or bought a property with an existing one, Fort Myers water feature maintenance is never a walk in the park – luckily, our Puddle Pool Pros are here to help! 

Before you take an amateur approach to cleaning your fountain, it’s important to consider all of its moving parts! Whenever you are dealing with water, a bit of discolouration is never just a stain – it’s likely algae! A dash of white is not just dust – it is a collection of mineral deposits. Proper fountain care means dealing with everything from filters to water pumps, and don’t forget to chemically treat the pool water! Don’t juggle complex procedures when you can have an expert do it for you! 

Water Fountain Cleaning: What Keeps Your Water Flowing 

There are plenty of types of water features on the market, and none of them operate in the same way. Sure, they might share similar parts and mechanics, but each will have its own unique needs. Trying to apply a one-size-fits-all approach to your regular cleaning, care and maintenance can hurt overall condition – so ditch the DIY and opt for professional care. 

Floating plants inside a garden fountain can add a touch of beauty to any space, but with organics, come contaminants. Outdoors, pollen, leaves, twigs, seed pods and everything in between can help to contribute to algae growth. Depending on the plant life around your feature, the temperature and even heavy rain, the chemicals in your water should be rebalanced. Failing to do so can result in algae blooms, white mold or other invasive growth. 

In addition to monitoring water conditions, it is important to review the condition of structures and mechanics, as well. At the heart of every water feature is a great circulation system, built up of filters, motors and pumps. Pump maintenance can be difficult to stay on top of. Professional water feature care offers a visual inspection of all the different mechanics and surfaces involved to ensure that there are no weak spots or leaks.
