Let the sun power your fountain
No wiring neededSolar water fountains enable you to do away with underground wiring and electricity bills. And because solar fountains generally operate on low voltage they eliminate potentially dangerous electrical shock. The key components that make them safer to use and environmental friendly are the solar panel which collects and converts the sun's energy and the solar-powered pump which keeps your fountain's water flowing gently into a water basin. The solar panel will work during cloudy and partially shaded areas and can usually be placed up to 10 - 15 feet away from the fountain. A popular use is as a solar fountain
bird bath
which you can place in your garden without worrying about the constraints of underground wiring. Place it where you can watch the birds drink and play. You can easily re-position it if you redesign your garden or with changing shade patterns in different seasons. Some solar fountains are provided with an AC connection so that you can opt to use them indoors. You can even get a solar panel with a battery storage device, allowing you to store the energy up during the day and enjoy the sound of water flowing through your fountain at night. Prices for the complete kit generally fall in the range of $100 to $300 when ordered on the Internet.
