A solar panel fountain pump is a small but mighty device that, as the name suggests, uses solar energy to power a water pump. Rather than running on electricity from your home, the light is fueled by a solar panel that collects energy, then converts it to power. This means that simply to clear the way for the water, this pump runs virtually dry without damage to the motor- an environmentally friendly solution that brings both beauty and tranquility in your garden, pool or even for your small outdoor fountain. Thousands of homeowners are making the switch, saving on electric costs and adding beauty and drama to their outdoor spaces.
