Isn’t it nice to have a waterfall fountain in your home? I am sure it adds grace to any living space. However, there is something that you must keep in mind before installing a fountain in your home. Perhaps, it is nothing but a watch-out pointer that can help you maintain your fountain. If you are planning to install a small size fountain such as a barrel fountain or waterfall fountain, then it is imperative for you to keep a periodic check on the water in the fountain. If you do not keep a check, the water may become stale and impurities begin to clog the fountain. This may further lead to fouls smell. If you are one of those who have to travel to out stations for work then it might require you to shut down the fountain and in such a case, it is advisable to drain out the water and clean it thoroughly before restarting it. Draining of water and cleaning is easy for small sized fountains but it is surely difficult for large fountains. Thus, if you think you cannot take so much hassle then it is better to not install a fountain at all.
