Thinking about adding something new to your backyard? A wall water fountain is a great addition especially if you are working on a tight budget. You can find one of these units for less than a few hundred dollars that will provide you with years of usage. Instead of buying something expensive or that is high maintenance that you will have to take care of, buy something affordable and easy to maintain.
These fountains are easy to use, easy to keep clean, and easy to install. Most of them simply need to be plugged in to turn on the pump. You can buy an outdoor power strip with a button for power so with the flick of a switch you will be in control of when your fountain is on and when it gets turned off. They are also east to keep clean. Clean out your fountain before the beginning of summer and your water should remain clean for the rest of the season. You may have to fish out a stray leaf or other debris once in a while but otherwise your fountain should remain clear of debris.
As for installation, your fountain will come with everything you need to install it. If you do not want to make holes in the exterior of your home consider a fountain that sits on some sort of base. You can find fountains with small box planters or other bases that take up very little space.
When you are low on space and money go with a wall fountain unit in your yard.
