True, from time to time the water in the fountain still needs to be topped up: its volume decreases due to natural evaporation. Depending on the size of the fountain, the volume of water can vary from 500 milliliters to 500 liters.

Room fountains are a common name for different types of water devices: waterfalls (in them the flow of water falls from a highledge), cascades (a series of waterfalls that are formed in the presence of small ledges), the actual fountains (a jet of water hits upwards, forming splashes).

In fact, this fountain is a landscape in miniature. Usually they are made of artificial stone and decorated with plants (live, canned or artificial).

The second group is "Plotless" abstract compositions. They are usually made not of stone, but of glass andmetal. Such compositions are more concise, but very attractive. The zest of such fountains is not an unusual decor, but nozzles that can change the shape of the jet, allowing water to "play".

Completely the water in the fountain needs to be changed as it blossomsThe smaller the fountain, the more often a change will be neededwater. Also the frequency of water changes depends on the proximity of the fountain to the light and the heating devices: in warm and light microscopic algae reproduce faster.
