Fountec is the most effective product now available for fountain treatment. It is non-hazardous, non-staining and non-foaming when using the recommended dosage. A small application lasts for a couple of weeks. 

While we don't recommend your fountain as a drinking source for pets, the fact remains that it is hard to keep pets from drinking from it. As long as the product is used according to directions, it will not harm your pet. As with all chemicals, we recommend that you keep them out of reach of children and pets.

Fountec Fountain Cleaner Features:

  • Fast acting and no chlorine needed
  • Kills and inhibits all types of algae growth in all types of water fountains and ponds
  • Keeps water crystal clear and algae-free

Fountec Fountain Cleaner Specifications:

4) On the delivery for fountains with extra large bases, a forklift is required for delivery as the base will be too big for lift-gate service. You must arrange this prior to fountain delivery. NOTE: Although most fountains DO NOT require a forklift because they can fit on a lift gate, we will notify you prior to shipping if your fountain requires a fork lift. 

Protecting cast stone and pottery during winter is crucial to prevent damage from the freeze-thaw cycle. Moisture trapped in these items can expand when frozen, leading to cracks and deterioration. Storing them indoors or in covered areas is the best practice, but if that's not feasible, thoroughly drying and covering them with a waterproof cover can offer some protection. Regular maintenance and care can significantly extend the life of these decorative items..

  • how much do I need for my fountain, it is fairly large and the algae is bad.

    One 8-oz bottle typically lasts up to one year for maintenance.  Where you have a large build up, You would want to repeat “visable algae dosage” every other day for one week. I recommend 2 bottles. 

  • Can fountec be used as a topical/surface cleaner for mineral/calcium build up?

    We recommend using CLR for surface cleaning and to help prevent mineral/calcium build up, check our our other product called Protec here:
