General Features - Solar and Pump Operation - Read Carefully:
All pumps shown above always need to be submersed completely in water or they will burn out... and they will only work with the accompanying solar panel. Distilled water is best, because it is free of dirt, leaves, etc. The pump works quietly by direct current (DC) --powered by the solar panel only and does not work by plugging into household AC current.
The solar pump can become clogged if the fountain is not kept free of algae and debris. Indoor use is the best. The pump is strong enough to keep the water flowing in your fountain (as shown) and/or shoot up into the air about 10 to 12" (for the 150 - it's higher for the 190). This is all according to manufacturer.
Important: Remember, the pump must always be completely submerged for it to work successfully (it is quiet, unless it is vibrating a little against the bowl). Must be cleaned periodically, depending on how much you use the pump and your environment, especially if you use it outdoors. Easy-to-follow directions come with product. If you make your own fountain, the tubing that connects from your fountain piece to pump intake not included (available at aquarium supply or hardware shops).
Best Practices for Using the Solar Fountain Pump and Fountain
The pump: The submersible pump is for use in a small to medium size pottery bowl (or similar container), that can hold water. The pump has been designed for outdoor use, however, you should avoid areas with a lot of foliage, leaves or other debris. Use the best screen on your filter to keep debris out. Distilled water and/or rain water is recommended for the pump to avoid build up of minerals and sediment.
The panel: The accompanying solar panel provides power for the pump. Naturally, the pump works the best in direct, full sunshine without clouds or shadows. Be sure that the connection between pump and panel is tight and protected from water. Caution: Do not touch the solar panel connection when the sun is shining on panel or if is wet, or there is a possibility of being shocked.
Cleaning the pump: Over time the pump may become clogged due to debris or dirt. To clean, remove the pump cover at the base, remove the impeller and clean out the housing. Replace the impeller and cover and test to make sure it's working. Periodic cleaning of the pump is recommended. If there is a leak, check your connections, especially the tubing that connects to the output stem of
pump. It must fit tight over all connections. Flexible plastic tubing can be purchased at an aquarium supply store or hardware store. To stop any vibrating noise from the pump, move it away from touching the pottery bowl by using a small piece of neoprene or rubber.
