Fountain Pumps Pricing and Costs

Consider the cost of fountain pumps when adding a fountain to your business
By Casey Holley When you are adding fountains to your business, you will have to ensure that you purchase appropriate fountain pumps. The price you pay for these pumps vary due to the water volume, type of pump, overall size of the pump, the housing on the pump and the features you need.
 

When you are preparing your budget for fountains, consider the following fountain pumps pricing and costs:

1. Consider the cost of using a submersible fountain pump to keep the pump hidden.

2. Help keep your fountain clean by using statuary fountain pumps that feature a filter.

3. Go green and save money by using a solar fountain pump instead of an electric pump.

Think about purchasing submersible fountain pumps

Submersible fountain pumps are a good addition to your fountain if you want the pumps to be hidden from public view. The price you pay for these pumps depends on the motor size and the style of the fountain pump. These are available in a variety of sizes from residential to industrial or commercial.
Try: Pond Boy sells a small inline submersible fountain pump for under $50. Prices on some of the larger models go up to around $200. DrillSpot.com sells submersible water fountain pumps starting at around $60 and going up to over $900.

Upgrade to statuary fountain pumps for your fountain

Statuary fountain pumps feature filters and most of them feature a flow control option. These are ideal for indoor and outdoor uses. The price you pay depends on the type of filter in the pump, as well as the type of housing and the water flow rates.
Try: Pondmaster.com sells statuary garden fountain pumps. Prices for these outdoor fountain pumps start at under $20. You can find a water fountain pump for around $20 at HardwareAndTools.com; however, some larger models are priced higher.

Consider a solar powered fountain pump

A solar powered fountain pump can save your business in the long run because you won't have to pay for electricity to power your pump. These models are available in sizes that range from miniature or table top models, all the way up to industrial sizes. The size of the pump and the number of solar panels affect the price you will pay for the pump.
Try: ThePondOutlet.com sells a varied selection of solar fountain pumps. Prices start at around $30 for miniature models; however, industrial fountain pumps are priced around $250. Kinetic Fountains sells solar pond fountain pumps for around $150.
