Swing into Solar - Get in on the Hot New Trend

Beautiful styles, convenience of use, and the soothing sound of flowing water - these are just a few of the reasons solar fountains are currently such a hot commodity. Solar fountains are easy to set up, environmentally friendly, and very affordable. They come in many sizes, designs and colors so you can choose the one that's perfect for your outdoor space.

The best thing about solar fountains, of course, is the fact that they require no electricity. Operating solely on the power of the sun, these fountains can be set up virtually anywhere the solar panel can get sun exposure. Some solar fountains have a separate solar panel with up to 15 feet of cord, so you can place the fountain in a desirable shaded spot and still be able to place the panel in the sun. Floating solar fountains, such as the Lily Floating Solar Fountain (pictured left), have the solar panel built in to the fountain itself, so you won't have to deal with cords trailing through the water. Solar birdbath fountains, such as the Portsmouth Solar Birdbath Fountain, also have built-in panels, for maximum aesthetic appeal.

Solar fountains with separate solar panels, such as the Duo Cascade Solar Fountain (pictured left), offer many options for placement. The panel can be mounted on a stake in the grass, hung on a wall, or put on a fence post for optimal sun exposure. Some solar fountains also come with optional electric pump kits, so that you can move your fountain indoors in the winter or during very cloudy, dark weather.

Now, you can find a solar fountain that will fit into your outdoor decor, whether it's cottage chic, traditional or Japanese-inspired. The Blue Ceramic Cascade Solar Fountain is a great example of some of the beautiful designs that can be found; in this case, a ceramic fountain with a beautiful blue glaze finish features pouring pots that create a tinkling sound reminiscent of a rocky stream.

Solar fountains are some of the most affordable outdoor water features you can purchase, at a great quality and with all these wonderful benefits. Browse the solar fountains category at www.kineticfountains.com to see a wide selection at great values.
