My fountain does not pump as much water as it did when it was new, whats wrong?
Every two to three months, the pump should be removed from an indoor fountain and put under running water. If it has a filter attached to it, take it off and separately cleanse it thoroughly under running water. After the pump is cleaned up, it will pump like new. Most pumps have adjustments to regulate water flow and that can be adjusted. Increasing the flow will work in the interim until you flush the pump. You can also follow these instructions for the pump on your outdoor fountain if it should slow down, too. The frequency with which you might need to clean the pump on an outdoor fountain will vary depending on how clean you keep your outdoor fountain.
