Important Usage Notes

• This is a direct-drive pump — water flow depends on available sunlight intensity. Cloudy days or partial shade may reduce or interrupt spray output.
• Never run the pump dry for extended periods, as this shortens its lifespan.
• Do not submerge the solar panel or controller in water.
• Keep water clean and periodically rinse the pump to remove debris that may impede performance.
• Solar panel edges may be sharp — keep out of reach of young children and always supervise use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does this solar fountain pump work on cloudy days?

A: The pump is a direct-drive solar fountain pump, meaning it relies on real-time sunlight to operate. On partly cloudy days you may see reduced or intermittent spray. For consistent performance, position the monocrystalline solar panel in a location that receives maximum direct sunlight throughout the day.

Q: Can I use this pump in a fish tank indoors?

A: Yes — as long as the solar panel can be placed outdoors or near a sunny window to capture sufficient sunlight, the pump (connected by the 300 cm cable) can circulate water inside a fish tank or aquarium. Ensure only the pump head is submerged, never the solar panel or controller.

Q: How do I change the spray pattern?

A: Simply detach the current nozzle from the pump head and attach any of the 8 included nozzle accessories. Each nozzle creates a different spray pattern and height, allowing you to customize the fountain display to match your garden or water feature style.

Q: How often should I clean the solar fountain pump?

A: We recommend rinsing and inspecting the pump every 2–4 weeks, or sooner if you notice a reduction in flow rate. Remove any debris, algae, or mineral deposits from the pump intake and nozzles to maintain optimal water flow and extend the pump's lifespan.
