Product Description
WANT A MODERN & EYE-CATCHING ORNAMENT IN YOUR GARDEN?
A solar fountain is the epitome of elegance & luxury. Imagine yourself living in a home with a beautiful outdoor space. You’ve worked so hard maintaining its lush greenery and the beautiful landscape, but there’s still something missing. Perhaps adding a water fountain might be the missing puzzle piece you’ve been looking for so long? There’s just something relaxing whenever you see the water on fountains cascade downwards with the familiar dripping sound—somehow reminiscent of a peaceful spring.
However, running water fountains can be costly, especially if you have several ones turned on for the entire day. This setup doesn’t bode well for your electric bill and our planet’s well- being.
The Solar Fountain by Solatec improves your home’s atmosphere and gives it a contemporary vibe!

---|---|---|
A PLANET-FRIENDLY WATER FOUNTAINGive your home an eye-catching and elegant decoration without endangering the environment and spending too much money on your electric bill. This water fountain does not need any battery or source of electricity. It runs on solar power and works at its peak when placed in an area fully exposed to the sky. The fountain’s operation improves even more after giving it a few days under sunlight. |
CREATE A RELAXING ATMOSPHEREYou deserve to live in a beautiful household. Place this solar-powered pump in your fish pond or garden fountain and enjoy the calming sound of the water trickling as the wind’s breeze wafts over your very own meditative oasis. Feel the serene ambiance you’ve been craving for after a long and stressful day at work. You can turn any plain looking water fountain or birdbath into a focal point where everyone can marvel at their cascading waters. |
VERSATILE APPLICATIONNow’s your chance to be creative in your outdoor space. This solar-powered water pump is not just for water fountains and birdbaths. You can use the pump for fish tanks, ponds, pools, and other kinds of decorative outdoor waterscapes. Let the people passing by your garden or backyard see the shimmering droplets of water from the fountain reflect the sun’s rays—a truly breath-taking scene to witness. |
REPLACE YOUR OLD POWER-HUNGRY FOUNTAINS WITH A MORE SUSTAINABLE ALTERNATIVE!
|
|
|
---|---|---|
LOW-MAINTENANCE & EASY TO USEThe floating fountain pump only takes simple steps to install. All you need to do is to put the pump on the fountain or any body of water in your outdoor space. Once the solar panel receives enough sunlight, it will run automatically within a couple of seconds—the brighter the sun’s rays, the better it works. Once the solar-powered fountain is ready, you can stare at it for as long as you like without the need to change the batteries or unplug it from a socket. |
WORKS ON MOST KINDS OF FOUNTAINSThis device is fully compatible with Zen, pool, cascading, wall, and tiered fountains. Some of our customers even use this device as water circulation for oxygen or as a cool drinking fountain for pets. The best part is, you’re not spending as much money for electricity while reducing your household’s carbon footprint. Try replacing all your electric-powered fountains with our solar pumps to see an even more noticeable difference in your electric bill. |
A VARIETY OF CASCADING WATERSOur solar-powered fountain pump has four different types of nozzle heads attached to the pump itself. This feature allows the device to change the height of the water emitted. Arrange your fountains properly to create a beautiful formation of water spouts cascading beautifully in mid-air. The fountain’s water can rise from 11.8 to 19.7 inches. Your fountains will look gorgeous even when you place them low on the ground or on a platform. |

I have now bought 2 more (1 to replace the original see info below). I have 1 unit in the bird bath and now added one to our little waterfall/pond (5' x 3' pool). They turn on with the sun and off when in shade so they do not run all the time like a solar charged battery allows. I actually like this arrangement better. The fountain starts spraying as soon as the sun shines on it. It turns off responsively too~ if light is temporarily blocked (a shadow from my hand as I fill the Bbath or a temp pass of a cloud), it turns off immediately. It is so immediately responsive, it gives the impression of an off/on switch. It does not have a switch so If we are leaving for a few days, I just put it on the shelf on our covered deck where it stays turned off until I set it in water again.
The different fountain heads in deed provide for a variety of patterns of spray. It is a powerful little thing too , 1 of the heads shoots easily 12 -18" high. If you choose not to use a patterned spray head, water will just gurgle & bubble out of the top which the birds like as well. I learned to put a ring of rocks in the bird bath to keep it centered & prevent it from moving itself too close to the edge & spilling water over the side. Colo had a string of 90+ degree days in Aug this year, so I would fill the bath everyday. If water gets too low the fountain cannot spray. Also, the motor will continue to run if the sun shines on the device but there's no water. This happened 1 or 2 and I could hear it running as soon as I walked out on the deck; it was +30'away which demonstrated the motor has plenty of power. However, It's completely quiet while in water.
After 3 months of use it just quit working BUT I feel there was 1 too many times I let it run completely dry. I ordered 2 more to replace the original and added the second unit to our lil pond /waterfall area. It works great in the pond and scoots itself all over the surface. Another tip to users : I used fishing line to tie a rock to the unit thereby tethering it so it would stay out of the shaded areas and prevent it from getting stuck up against the edges. It is working great and I do not have to worry about it running out of water!
As for longevity we will see; I intend to use 1 unit in the heated bird bath this winter. We'll see how cold weather affects it but also keeping in mind Denver temps can be on the mild - moderate side with a mix of cold to comfortable. Generally it is not like the looong freezing winters of the Northern states. If the 2 units do not hold up thru the next few Fall months, I will edit my 3 star longevity rating. it is a fun little feature and I recommend it to others ~ in fact I may put it under the tree this Xmas!
********update: the 2 new units i bought since writing this review have held up very well!! I still luv these little fountainheads. I decided to NOT use them Nov-Feb. but outside of that time period they are in water & working almost everyday. To store them I simply take them out of water & keep covered thru winter months. I even left them outside on a shelf where they live thru extreme temp changes.
I keep the 5 star rating & would go higher if i could for these reasons:
longevity excellent,
affordability vs value is outstanding,
ease of use & maintenance could not be easer or more convenient.
I would add a durability rating & give it the highest rating too. This is in consideration of my experience that they are out in all weather i.e. wide temp swings of Co. Springtime -32 -80+ that cause feet of snow, Summer’s extreme heat over100+ , hailstorms & even Fall nites that cool quickly. It’s a wonderful , fun affordable & durable addition to the yard or any body of water u want to make a lil more special but a low work impact! I’ll try to add picts next
I wish it was a smaller unit though for same power. Maybe over time tech will be better. Anyway I tested the solar panels and noticed that if ONE PANEL is fully blocked the whole thing stops working. If just some of multiple panels are blocked it still bubbles. This has no battery backup power so when source of light is cut it stops. I knew that before I bought, but others may question.
Taking away one star for size and issue with only one panel being covered. I just installed on 6/26/19 so I can’t comment on longevity. I often return to my reviews and update.
Additionally, these come with a $10 amazon gift card which you only get if you give them a 5 star rating. Paying for 5 star reviews by any vendor on amazon should be eliminated. So I've given a 4 star rating, to let others know this is a legitimate review from a real user in the USA.
UPDATE: 7/2/19: I've had this less than a week and came home to a bright, sunny day with zero clouds and the bath was full, yet this thing was not pumping and there was no sound either from the motor. Reducing to 1 star now.
UPDATE: 7/15/19: This WORKS again. After I brought it in and had it aside for a few days, I tried it again and it is working fine. I have a second video that I'll post which shows my shadow moving in front of a good portion of the panels before it suddenly stops bubbling. On really really bright days, this bubbles a good amount. So, it's great when it works. I don't know why it was problematic on other sunny days. Reinstating to 4 stars since it's back to working.
UPDATE: 9/18/19: Still working as we move into fall weather here. I got a bigger terra cotta saucer (11") so this fountain doesn't take up as much space in now. :) Still pleased with this and may buy my mother one as well.
LAST UPDATE 8/2020: fountain pump died after a year (only 2 summers in northeast). I tried setting it aside for a few days which is what worked last time when it stopped suddenly. That didn’t work. I thought maybe I could dismantle the pump and find the issue. Didn’t get far due to the casing being impenetrable. Had to landfill it. 😖 I liked this while it worked but if you expect to get years and years of light use of it, you may want to alter your anticipation.
