Frequently Asked Questions


Q: Is a fountain good for a pool?

A: A fountain is good for a pool because it helps with the cleaning process. When the fountain tosses water upward, the water picks up oxygen and other nutrients to bring back into the pool. This technique is known as aeration. Constantly aerating the pool helps deter algae and other bacteria and also helps regulate chlorine levels.


Aeration is no substitute for other important maintenance tasks, however. Learn which cleaning tools and chemicals your pool will need by checking our comprehensive guide on the subject, How to Maintain a Pool. Also, find out how you can prevent algae with our guide on that topic, Why Is My Pool Water Green? How to Get Rid of Pool Algae.


Q: Can you add a fountain to an existing pool?

A: You can purchase an above-ground pool fountain for an existing pool. A fountain also needs a connection to its own pump so it can toss water upward. To make the installation process easier, look for a fountain that includes a connection kit.

 

Q: Will a pool fountain cool a pool?

A: Yes, the evaporation of water as it flies through the air has a cooling effect. Be aware, though, that you’ll lose water to this evaporation, so be sure to add more to the pool on a constant basis.
