Know about fountains What do you want to know about fountains? Most people assume any nozzle will fit any pump and work no problem, first there is the physical size of the nozzle see our wrong nozzle page. Then there you have to ask is it the correct pump for the job. See our wrong pump page. The height of your fountain is dictated by several factors, the first is the pool dimensions, please see our JW rule page. The second is regarding the pump, if you want a really tall / wide jet, chances are you will need a 3 phase electricity supply. Most domestic premises, and some small commercial premises only have a single phase 240v supply which will not operate a 3 phase 415v pump* Unlike most other places we ask what exactly is it you are trying to achieve, this is not because we are being nosey, it is because we want your fountain to work from the word go, most places will supply products with no questions asked, but then what do you do when the nozzle you just brought does not fit the pump you have? We had an enquiry from a person who ended his email with ".....I will decide which pump I require" we declined to supply to him, because the products he wanted would simply not work together, but he would not listen, if we had have sold him the wrong products he would have thought bad of us (even with a disclaimer) When you fill in the enquiry form on our components website there is a section called "budget" This is there to help us help you. If for example you want a single wide jet 3 metres high and your budget is too small, we will tell you strait away, this saves you wasting your time, so please fill it in when you enquire. There is more to a fountain than you may at first think, this website has a whole host of information for you, if you have any questions please ask. Use the question / enquiry link at the bottom of this page. * You can get single > 3 phase converters at additional expense.
