Floating Pond Fountains in Canada

Size on surface acreage and average depth first, then choose the display. A fountain that looks right on a half-acre pond disappears on five acres, and undersizing is the single most common mistake we see.

Send us your surface area, average depth and the distance from your power source, and our techs will spec horsepower, voltage, cord length and spray pattern before you order.

This is the most common ordering mistake on floating fountains. Residential and most rural sites are single-phase; commercial properties, golf courses and municipal sites are often three-phase. The fountain, the control panel and the cord all have to match your supply.

Check the panel at your power source, or send us a photo of it. Ordering a three-phase unit for a single-phase site means a return shipment and a lost season.

They do both, but the balance shifts by model. A decorative fountain moves surface water and drives oxygen exchange at the top of the water column. An aerating fountain trades some display height for greater water movement.

In deep or stratified water, a bottom-diffused aeration system will turn over more of the column than any surface unit. On larger Canadian ponds the two are often run together.

Select Series is the display line - built around large, contiguous spray patterns where the fountain is a visual feature. Select Series 2 is the aerating line, trading some pattern height for greater water movement and oxygen transfer.

Both are available in single-phase and three-phase. If the fountain is going in for looks, start with Select Series; if it is going in because the water has a problem, start with Select Series 2.

A control panel protects the motor and automates the display. It provides proper disconnect and overload protection, timers so the fountain runs only when it is being seen, and photocell control for lighting.

Panels are matched to the fountain's horsepower and to single or three-phase supply, so the panel and fountain need to be specified together. Electrical work should be completed by a licensed electrician to local code.

Usually yes, provided the kit is matched to your fountain model. Light kits are sold by fixture count and mount to the fountain itself, so compatibility depends on the model plus your existing cord and panel setup.

Send us your model and serial number and we will confirm which kit fits and whether your control panel can carry the additional load.

More often than people expect, repair is the better call. Most failures are a rebuildable part - seals, propellers, floats, o-rings or cord hardware - rather than a write-off of the whole unit.

We run a certified repair centre in Markham with factory-trained bench techs, so the unit stays in Canada instead of shipping south. Send us the model number and a description of the fault and we will tell you honestly whether a rebuild makes sense.

Yes to both. We ship fountains, control panels, lighting kits and replacement parts across Canada, with most orders leaving the warehouse in one to two business days.

As an authorized dealer we honour full manufacturer warranty, and because we operate our own repair centre you are not shipping a warranty claim across the border.
