The Gusher Fountain creates a dense, cascading vertical column of water for small residential ponds. Its wind-resistant spray pattern rises up to 15 feet, producing a full and continuously changing display.
The highly aerated stream adds oxygen to the water, helps maintain water clarity, supports the natural breakdown of decaying vegetation, and creates rapid water movement that helps inhibit mosquito breeding.
This ½-hp, 115-volt configuration uses a stainless-steel, oil-free, submersible motor designed for continuous fresh- or saltwater operation. It requires no oil changes, routine maintenance, or separate control box.
