This document describes the assembly, usage, and maintenance of the Jeco Tabletop Lighthouse Fountain (SKU# FCT109 / 15030014). This decorative item is designed to bring the soothing ambiance of a water feature to any indoor space, mimicking the charm of a lighthouse.
The Tabletop Lighthouse Fountain operates as a self-contained water feature, circulating water to create a continuous flow that is both visually appealing and audibly calming. The primary components include a lighthouse structure (A) and a pump (B). The pump is responsible for drawing water from a basin within the lighthouse and pushing it upwards, allowing it to cascade down the structure, thus creating the fountain effect. This continuous circulation ensures that the water feature remains active as long as the pump is powered and properly submerged. The design is intended for tabletop placement, making it a suitable decorative element for various rooms, such as living areas, offices, or bedrooms, where its gentle water sounds can contribute to a relaxing atmosphere.
The assembly and operation of the Tabletop Lighthouse Fountain are straightforward, designed for ease of use.
Once assembled and plugged into a GFCI outlet, the fountain will begin to circulate water, creating the desired water feature effect. The continuous flow of water over the lighthouse structure provides both visual interest and a calming sound.
A significant safety warning is provided: Always disconnect the pump (B) from the power source before placing your hands in the water. This is a standard safety precaution for any electrical device operating in water, preventing the risk of electric shock.
The fountain is designed for indoor use, as implied by its tabletop nature and the emphasis on preventing water damage to surrounding areas. It is recommended to place the fountain in an area where potential water spills or splashes would not cause damage to furniture, flooring, or other items.
Proper care and maintenance are essential to ensure the longevity and optimal performance of the Tabletop Lighthouse Fountain.
After the initial setup, it is important to check for any leaks or excessive splashing. This allows for immediate adjustments if necessary, preventing potential water damage to the surrounding environment. The manual strongly recommends placing the fountain in an area where it cannot be damaged by water, reinforcing the need for careful placement and initial monitoring.
The manual advises against leaving the fountain running for extended periods of time when no one is present to observe its performance. This suggests that while the fountain is designed for continuous operation, it is prudent to monitor it, especially if there's a concern about potential issues like leaks or changes in water flow.
On a regular basis, users should check the area around the fountain to ensure there is no leakage. This proactive approach helps in identifying and addressing any potential issues before they lead to significant water damage.
A crucial maintenance note is to avoid attempting to move the fountain once it has been filled with water. The weight of the water can make the fountain cumbersome and potentially lead to spills or damage to the unit itself if moved improperly. If relocation is necessary, it is best to first empty the water from the basin.
Although not explicitly detailed, the instruction to fill the basin with "clean water" implies the importance of using water free from debris or excessive minerals that could clog the pump or leave deposits on the lighthouse structure over time. Regular cleaning of the pump and the basin, though not explicitly outlined in this excerpt, is generally recommended for water features to prevent algae growth and maintain water clarity.
In summary, the Jeco Tabletop Lighthouse Fountain is a user-friendly decorative item that offers a tranquil water feature experience. Its simple assembly, clear operating instructions, and practical maintenance guidelines ensure that users can enjoy its calming presence with minimal effort, provided the safety and care instructions are followed diligently.
