Article by Apurva
Garden fountain, if you manage to select the right one, can work as the single-best garden landscaping idea, adding charm to your entire house. If this outdoor garden fountain is eye-catching, you need not do anything else for the landscaping, in case you are working on a tight budget. Just set up this fountain, and play around with some cheap lighting ideas surrounding it, and that’s it. Your water garden fountain will surely earn you respect in the neighborhood. So, read on how you can create magic in your garden.
Choose Your Water Garden Fountain
If you start looking out, you will find plenty of outdoor garden fountains displayed stylishly amid beautiful landscaping in the shops. There are these floor fountains, tabletop fountains, as well as backyard fountains. You could also choose an attractive statue fountain made of stone, ceramic, bronze, fiberglass, concrete, resin, wood, or copper, depending on the surroundings of your house and your choice. The best buy nowadays are these solar water fountains. Although there is limited choice in this category, since it is fresh arrival, it is worth the price.
Permanent And Temporary Fountains
Before you decide on a particular make or design, figure out whether you want the fountain permanently or on a temporary basis. For those seeking long term landscaping solutions, heavy garden fountains made of concrete, bronze, or stone are a good option, since they will last forever. While for those who like to change the décor of their house often, lightweight outdoor garden fountains could serve the purpose. They could choose fountains made of acrylic resin that give expensive sandstone feel at a lower cost.
Landscaping The Outdoor Fountain.
Lighting alone is enough to set your garden fountain on fire. Light the pond from inside, highlighting the fountain statue, to create a spectacular look. You can also use lighting to enhance the appearance of a beautiful tree. You can light the garden from within or from outside, just get all the electrical know-how to ensure that the area is safe, especially if you have children in the house. It is advisable that before you decide upon the lights for your fountain – you check their effects first using a strong flashlight or spotlight. Focus on simplicity and nuance, and refrain from overdoing anything that could make your garden look like an amusement park.
There are various types of lights for garden fountains, each one with its own special effect, based on how you place it; keep in mind that almost all designs need lights with dark and subdued cases. Avoid chromium steel and white casings, since they can be garish, especially in the daylight. You can also look at installing timers in the lights, to automatically switch them on and off. These timers will not only save you the task of running to the plug-point to switch the lights on and off, but also save substantial amount of power units. So, what keeping you waiting? Rush to your nearest fountain store, to get one and give your garden that makeover.

Kenroy Home Costa Brava Outdoor Fountain,
This item was on backorder for about 2 months. When it finally arrived, it was in a large box that was quite heavy (2-person type). The box was damaged in several places, but everything inside was fine. However, several key components were missing – namely the pump, lights & transformer. Rather than returning the entire thing to Amazon, I contacted the mfg (by phone) and they agreed to ship me everything at no cost. The parts arrived 2 weeks later (surprising since the rep said everything was in stock & they would be shipped out the next business day). Now comes assembly, which was pretty straight forward except when it came to connecting the hose to the pump. The hose was too short and it ended up being a 2 person job (one holding the upper tiers while the other attached the hose to the pump). Another problem was the top tier was noticably crooked. I tried to re-seat it several times but it was obviously a mfg defect. I ended up turning the fountain in such a way that it was not as noticable. I then filled it with water & plugged it in. Everything appeared to be OK and I let it run overnight. The next day I noticed another defect – water was leaking somewhere between the bottom tier and pedestal. I verified everything was seated properly & filled it with more water. That’s when I noticed a slow leak trickling out onto my patio. That was the last straw. I disassembled everything, boxed it up & sent it back to Amazon. I have to mention one other thing about this fountain that I really didn’t like – the fact that the lights stay on all the time. The mfg should have put the lights on a separate transformer so they could be controlled independendly from the pump. I prefer to keep the pump running all the time and turn the lights on for only about 6 hours at night. The fountain looks great, but it was a major dissapointment overall – especially when it cost nearly $400! I would not recommend it to anyone until they fix the problems and separate the pump from the lights.

|EXCELLENT,
We absolutely love our new Costa Brava Fountain. It was well worth the wait until it was available.

|Over Priced,
A great deal at half the price. Usually being more discriminating and patient, in this instance my wife and I gave in to compulsion seeking to populate our newly finished patio oasis with a fountain. On the positive it is light and easy to maneuver versus a concrete fountain and it generally looks like the photo. Amazingly enough it leveled out OK but had to put a little gum in some places and shave a little material out in others to even out the drip, specifically on the middle tier. On the negative, build quality is marginal. There were cracks in both the base and middle tier and many of the details are deformed and uneven but since I believe it is a function of being made of moulded fiberglass, I had no hope that a return exchange would be any better. Just rotated the ugly parts to the wall and called it good. The paint is already flaking and a few chips of material have released themselves. We plan to keep it, lesson learned, but had we seen it in a retail store, would never consider paying four Benjamins for it.

|You need to increase the distance that the water falls! that will make it louder.
Don’t fill the fountain as much. Makes it louder.
