Ok, I know this is a longshot, but I'll take any leads at this point. I just bought a wonderful home. It's about 7 years old, and the previous, previous owners installed a lovely 3ft tall retaining wall in the backyard with a lion's head fountain that spits into a 2ft deep well.
Everything was fine until about 2 months ago when the fountain started sputtering, and has now given up. Sounds like the pump is gone, but I just can't find it.... yes I know I'm lame... I've drained the well, so know it must be external. I've searched the immediate area, but nothing. I suppose they buried it deep behind the retaining wall, but wouldn't it need to be near the surface somewhere?
At this point, I'd appreciate any leads at all... I found this forum, looked at some of your amazing ponds, and thought you folk might have some good ideas on locating a missing pump...
Best regards, Tom
