Keeping a water feature looking its best takes a little more than topping up the water now and again, and our water feature care range is built for exactly that. From cleaning tablets that keep fountains, wall features and bird baths free of algae, limescale and organic build-up, to clarifiers and colourants that keep the water crystal clear or give it a natural, shaded finish, these products are designed for smaller ornamental features rather than full fish ponds.

Regular use of a water feature cleaning tablet is one of the simplest ways to cut down on maintenance and stop green, cloudy water building up between cleans.

If you're caring for a larger, fish-stocked pond rather than an ornamental feature, our Pond Water Treatment range covers algae and blanket weed control on a bigger scale.

A little routine care goes a long way with ornamental water features, since their small water volume means algae, limescale and debris build up faster than in a full pond. Dropping in a cleaning tablet every few weeks, or as directed on the pack, helps keep pumps and fountain heads running freely as well as keeping the water clear — a clogged pump is one of the most common reasons a water feature stops flowing properly. It's also worth giving the reservoir a physical clean every so often, removing any leaves or debris before topping up, since chemical treatments work best when they're not fighting a build-up of organic matter.

If your feature is home to fish rather than just ornamental, check dosing carefully, as some water feature treatments aren't suitable where livestock is present.
