- Drain all water from the fountain.
- Wash the fountain with mild detergent and soft scrub brush; then rinse out.
- Remove small sections of the fountain and store in an area that won’t freeze.
- Remove PUMP, clean and store in a dry, freeze proof place.
- Any remaining large sections of the fountain should be covered with a waterproof tarp and securely fastened at the bottom to prevent water from entering.
In the Spring, reassemble your fountain, fill with water and ENJOY!
Remember that all TERRA COTTA, (Clay Pots, etc.) need to be stored in a dry place. Our cold freezing winters will crack the clay. WROUGHT IRON and METAL fixtures such as Arbors, Fences, and Obelisk can be coated with Acrylic Spray or Linseed Oil to retard rust.
Instead of storing your HAYRACKS or TOPIARY, consider filling them with evergreen boughs adorned with Holly Branches, Pine Cones and a beautiful Velvet Bow. The greens last well past the Holidays, and as in the Spring, we will be happy to fill your Hayrack.
