The following are things to consider when installing it.

It is necessary for you to have an idea of how fountains are built. This is a requirement especially when you do not intend to hire a professional to handle the task. You can consider consulting friends who have some adequate knowledge of how to construct them. Look for a variety of websites with such information, note down the requirement and the whole procedure to follow for the project to be effective.

Inquire about the requirements and list them down. Most items can be acquired from the surrounding for example gravels, and rock blocks. However, you should look for a suitable place to get other essentials. Go for window shopping around the town to know the prices of the items. Compare the prices of different shops and purchase from one with the most reasonable prices.

It is necessary to identify the place to install the fountain. Look for a location which is easily noticed. As you are trying to look for a good location, consider a place where there is an electric outlet as you will need electric power to run the pump. Else, you can look for an electrician to install a new outlet to the location you have identified.

There is a need to prepare the location. You need to trace the outline of the area intended to install the fountains by using a container and spray around to acquire the required layout. Afterward, remove the container and dig a hole with the use of a shovel. The plastic container should fit on the hole evenly and as expected.

You should have a water pump installed inside the container. It is essential to help in pumping water to the fountain. Else, the water will stagnate and attract algae and insects. Attach a pipe to the pump as well as electric power. When handling the task, it is necessary to follow the provided guidelines.

Place the plastic container upside down, then place some gravels on it. Drill your fountain rocks to ensure that water can pass through them. You need large rocks to help you prepare an actual feature. When the drilling process, you need to observe safety precautions. You can as well seek for assistance from professionals.

After all that is done, arrange the rocks on the container. You need to consider placing the largest at the base then followed with the rest. However, the size needs to decrease to the top. Make sure the tube gets to almost an inch in the large rock. Then, pour water into the container, install the pump and plug it in. It will be ready to work.
