Water fountain pumps are one of the most important parts of any fountain whether it sis indoors or outdoors. The pump runs on electricity and pushes the water upwards from where the water flows through the cascade design to create visually pleasing atmosphere.

Just imagine if the water flows too fast or in much more quantity than required, or too less than expected. This will create an imbalance in it's visual form and will look ugly too. If too much water flows through the fountain then it will spill out on the floor and create a mess or if too less water flows through it then it is as good as a dry fountain.

To avoid these embarrassing situations it is necessary to choose the water fountain pump of the right power. There are 2 important points to take note of while choosing the right power of pump for your fountain. You can always ask the dealer about it's specification but it is your duty to first make yourself educated about them so that when you buy them you will be much more confident.

1) GPH - Gallons per hour value is a very good measure the power of a pump. For standard indoor fountain 50-100 GPH value is enough.

2) Max head - This is a measuring unit in feet. It basically mean that a pump with Max head 3 can push the water up to 3 feet above it's height. To determine the Max head it is necessary first to measure the highest point of your fountain from pump top.

Finally while buying a water fountain pump make sure to choose one which operates on indoor as well as outdoor fountains because if you plan to shift the fountain to your garden then you don't to buy a new pump for that. Many pumps also have an arrangement to control the flow of water which is very good thing in itself.

This water fountain pumps are available in a variety of price tags to choose from. Make sure you do proper market research before you make a final decision.
