Types
There are a plethora of pool fountains on the market today. One type is a simple floating pool fountain. This type of fountain does just what it says; it floats on the top of the swimming pool. Most floating pool fountains have adjustable spray heights. Some floating fountains offer two or three tiers of water. Some varieties even have beautiful colored lights. The colored lights make the fountain glow with color at night. Another type of swimming pool fountain is a stationary piped fountain that you put on the side of the swimming pool. A piped fountain will gently spew water into the swimming pool. They come in all shapes and sizes. A popular choice for these types of pool fountains are animals, maidens, or mystical characters such as mermaids.
Set Up
Before setting up your swimming pool fountain, make sure to read your owner’s manual. This will ensure that your fountain is set up correctly and will last you a long time. Many pool fountains will attach right to your swimming pool pump and work on your pool's system. You will find that most are universal and will fit many types of swimming pools.
Mediums
Pool fountains are made of several types of mediums. Some of the most popular are concrete, resin, marble, and bronze. The cost of the fountain increases as purer materials, such as bronze are used.
