Are you hiring? lol What a great place to work

 

[CometKeith]

Wow, really nice. I assume there are offices too or do you just sit by the pond!

Looks nice although I can't resist mentioning I hate that type of fountain. I maintain a business whose pond had that type of fountainoutput and iI talked them into going with one that had a circular spray pattern rather than a blast straight up. Looks better, less evaporation, and doesn't soak the surrounding area and people when there is a breeze. I realize in your particular situation most of that isn't an issue.

Nice!

That fountain is shootin for the sky better to have a low one that spreads out so I agree fountain head needs changed

I'm not a big fan of the fountain either, but it was donated so I can't complain much. It used to shoot straight up, but I angled it to give it some flavor. Fortunately there's very little wind courtesy of all of the full grown trees in/around the area, in addition to having it adjusted so it's not spraying or soaking the area where it lands. :banana:

Maybe you can get a shower head that will fit over the pipe shooting the water up, spread it out like a shower.

Nice place to work!

Did I miss the part where you tell us the name of this place where you work

Oh my gosh that shower head made me crack up. I don't think they have the proper gph flow hahaha

 

[sissy]

Shower heads do work and great thing is they don't clog up as fast .I used to have one before I built my bridge .You can find them by word of mouth ,someone remodeling a bathroom is a great source and mine was on a pump that only had 650 gph and it ran 2 spitters also and a filter

Its called Micke Grove Park in Lodi,CA.

I chuckled at the shower head idea too. Maybe I'll put one on and stick it on the massage setting. Lol

not shower head shower drain is what I used .Sorry guess we said shower head .I guess though a shower head would work if it is one of the old school less water saving types .I used a shower drain and had to adapt it a little to fit .I think it was 3 screw on fittings before it fit right on my pump .It only shoots water 2 feet up but has a wide spread and did notice today the shower drains are bigger now than the one I had ,I guess mine was old school also .New seems to be bigger

Yep take the anti flow washer out, get one of those cheap ones with a ton of holes, drill a few bigger. Might just work............they have some for around 4 bucks, cheap experiment. The shower drain plate is a good thought too Sissy. Get the whole unit, down size it until it fits the pipe the fountain uses.

The shower drain one makes the water come out in a wider circle and keeps it low to the waters surface .I just had one and tried it .But it is getting harder to find the older less efficient stuff these days .I was amazed at much bigger the shower drains are these days I guess they want the water to drain faster ,Funny we use less water from the shower head but the drain is bigger ,kinda stupid HUH
