The splash of a fountain in your garden or backyard brings a sense of peace and harmony. This soothing “soundtrack” is also music to the ears of birds who are instinctively attracted to fountains. If you’ve been thinking about adding a fountain (or two!) to your outdoor space. Here are some things to consider before making your ultimate selection:

1. Visibility. A fountain should be placed in a high visibility area so that it won’t be overshadowed by other objects and so that everyone can enjoy it.

2. Sound Level. Make sure the fountain is close enough to be heard but far enough away that the sound is not bothersome.

3. Water Source. Place your fountain close to a nearby water source so that it can be easily refilled, if necessary.

4. Power Supply. Like your water source, a power supply should be within a few feet of the fountain’s location.

5. Safety. If you are concerned about children touching or playing near the fountain, take steps to make sure it is out of reach of curious little fingers!

Once you’ve sussed out the logistics of where your fountain is going to go, you’ll need to decide what fountain style suits your space.
