Overview

This document describes the Peaktop Solar Powered Wall Fountain with Two Pots Two Bowls (model PT-SF0001), a decorative and functional outdoor water feature designed to enhance garden or patio spaces. The fountain operates using solar energy, making it an eco-friendly and cost-effective addition to any outdoor setting.

Function Description

The Peaktop Solar Powered Wall Fountain is a self-contained water feature that circulates water using a solar-powered pump. Its primary function is to create a soothing ambiance through the gentle flow of water, mimicking the sound and visual appeal of a natural spring or waterfall. The fountain features two pots and two bowls, arranged in a cascading design, allowing water to flow from the top jar down through the bowls and into the main basin, where it is then recirculated by the pump.

The solar pump system is designed for continuous operation during daylight hours when sufficient sunlight is available. It is equipped with a battery pack that stores excess solar energy. This stored energy allows the fountain to operate even when sunlight is not strong enough, such as on cloudy days, or during the evening hours. This ensures that the water flow and the integrated LED lights can continue to function, extending the enjoyment of the fountain beyond just peak daylight.

In addition to its water circulation function, the fountain also includes three warm LED lights. These lights are designed to illuminate automatically when it gets dark, enhancing the visual appeal of the water jet and the overall fountain scene during the evening. This feature transforms the fountain into an attractive focal point for nighttime outdoor gatherings or quiet contemplation.

Usage Features

The fountain is designed for straightforward assembly and operation. Users are advised to unpack all components carefully and to be mindful that some water may splash over the rim of a bowl, so it should not be set up on surfaces that could be damaged by water.

Assembly:

  1. The top jar, which includes a water tube at its bottom, is aligned and inserted onto the fountain body.
  2. The water tube and LED light cables are threaded through an opening at the back of the fountain body.
  3. The water tube is then connected to the pump outlet, and the pump is placed upright in the fountain basin.
  4. The LED lights are connected to their respective cables, and the pump's power cord is connected to the solar panel.
  5. Finally, the stake is inserted into the bottom of the solar panel bracket, allowing the solar panel to be positioned optimally.

Operation: To ensure optimal performance, the solar unit should be charged for at least two days before its initial use. The solar panel needs to be placed in direct sunlight to power the pump and charge the battery effectively. When sunlight is strong, the pump will automatically start working. If the fountain is intended for evening use, the LED lights will activate automatically in the dark. To test the LED lights during the daytime, the solar panel can be turned upside down to minimize light exposure.

A button (switch) located on the back of the solar panel controls the fountain's operation.

  • Turn on: Activates the fountain, allowing water to flow.
  • Turn off: Stops the fountain's operation, primarily for power charging, meaning the pump and LED lights will not work.

The fountain's performance is dependent on weather conditions:

  • Sunny weather: Solar energy powers the pump and simultaneously charges the battery, which can be fully charged in one day.
  • Partly cloudy weather: Solar energy powers the pump and provides a small amount of energy to the battery, which may take 2 to 3 days to fully charge.
  • Cloudy weather: The pump runs solely on stored battery energy, and the battery will not charge.
  • Nighttime: The pump runs solely on stored battery energy, and the battery will not charge.

Maintenance Features

Regular maintenance is crucial to ensure the longevity and optimal performance of the Peaktop Solar Powered Wall Fountain.

Pump Maintenance: Over time, the pump may experience a loss of power or stop working due to the build-up of sediment, scale, or dirt. To address this, users should:

  1. Remove the pump filter.
  2. Remove the gland and rotor.
  3. Clean these components thoroughly with fresh water. If the pump operates but water does not flow through the fountain top, it indicates a build-up of sediment or scale in the tubes or the pump itself. In this case, both the tube and the pump should be cleaned.

Solar Panel Maintenance: The solar panel should be cleaned periodically with a soft tissue. Regular cleaning is recommended to maintain its efficiency in converting sunlight into direct current, thereby ensuring consistent power supply to the fountain.

General Cautions:

  • Avoid striking the solar panel to prevent damage.
  • Do not allow the pump to run dry for extended periods, as this can cause damage.
  • Never lift the pump by its power cord.
  • The fountain is designed to operate exclusively in freshwater.

By following these guidelines for assembly, operation, and maintenance, users can ensure that their Peaktop Solar Powered Wall Fountain provides many hours of enjoyment and aesthetic enhancement to their outdoor living spaces.
