Why Cast Iron Water Fountains Are Good Choice

There are several reasons why cast iron fountains are a great choice and a good reason to place them in your home. Here are a few key benefits: 

  • Durable and long-lasting: Cast iron is tough and can handle all kinds of weather, from harsh UV to icy cold weather. As you know, summer in Australia has a strong UV rate, which is why the cast iron fountains are great. 
  • Classic water feature style: Whether your home style is traditional or modern, the classic cast iron fountains bring a fantastic look and provide you with a beautiful water flow sound. 
  • Versatile Designs: Various cast iron fountain designs are available, including multi-tiered types and modern styles. Let us find the best-cast iron fountain for your home. 

How to Choose the Right Cast Iron Water Feature

Choosing the perfect fountain can be a big decision, but these are some tips for you.

  • Check Your Space: Please check your area, particularly the size of the area where you are thinking of placing the new cast iron fountain. A large fountain is eye-catching, but if you have a small area, this might feel overwhelming in a smaller space. 
  • Pick a Style You Like: Whether you prefer a classic tiered style or something more modern. If you are still deciding which fountains to choose, talk to us, and we will find the best option. 
  • Think About Water Flow: Some fountains have a gentle water flow, while others have a more strong stream flow type. Generally, a strong stream or classic tiered type water feature is louder water noise. 
  • Maintenance Needs: To protect the fountain against rust, we recommend applying the Penetrol paint before use. This spray prevents rust and keeps your fountain last for a long time.

How to Care for the Cast Iron Fountain?

Proper care will help the cast iron fountain be in excellent condition, and you can enjoy it for years. 

  • Clean Regularly: Remove debris, leaves and algae that may accumulate in the water feature. Use a mild soap and water to clean the surface; please avoid harsh chemicals (petro or acid-based) that can damage the cast iron fountains. 
  • Prevent Rust: Although cast iron fountains are highly durable, they can rust over time if not protected. Applying a rust-resistant coating such as Penetrol paint will prevent corrosion or rust. 
  • Check Water Levels: It is essential to keep an eye on the fountain water level. Operating the water pump without water may cause damage to the water pump.
