~~Our Testing experience~~

You just have to love a product that really lives up to its manufacturer's claims.

With the fountain delivery, we received a photo catalogue of the many different water patterns available. The size of the fountain made us believe it would be difficult to create these pictured patterns. We were stunned when simple 'turn of the knob' action was all it took to create a new look. It was simple to go from a triple cascade look and then easily switch to a single cascade. This highly important option is a necessary for seasonal changes. We learned a combination center and horizontal spray was the best option for circulation of the pond; while a high vertical plume works best for windy conditions.*

This floating fountain also serves as a lake aeration system. We noticed a significant decrease in algae growth at both testing locations in the summer months. In the winter the lake was frozen except where the water fell. With the lake also being home to swans, we had to purchase a second aerator for them to thrive.

We highly recommend the lights as well. It is very eye catching and a spectacular site. White light is the most effective, as the clear lens passed the most light through. Be careful while selecting other colors for fountains in areas of high ambient light or in mixing colors so that certain shades are not washed out. **

While this fountain is mostly maintenance free; a cleaning of the lights and nozzles once a month in the warmer months is necessary for the best look.

Out of the fountain models we had tested, the overall rating of Cusom Fountains won in all categories. We highly recommend the G series model to commercial business or residential use.
