How To Care For Your Weathervane
By investing in a weathervane made with high-grade copper welded with copper rods, your copper weathervane is held together seamlessly. At Lakeside Ornamental, creating weathervanes with this seamless copper crafting allows you to spend your time doing other things rather than having to care for your weathervane.
Once one of our weathervanes is installed and secure, there is NO maintenance. You never have to go up on the roof again.
Part of the care is not really care at all, but reliant on the quality of the installation too. Every once in a while, you’ll hire a contractor to install the weathervane for you and the person will attempt a less complete installation.
A half-way approach to installing a weathervane is a mistake and will be costly. We provide detailed and thorough instructions for installing a Lakeside Ornamental weathervane. As long as that was installed correctly, you won’t have any maintenance with these weathervanes.
Take a look at Lakeside Ornamental weathervanes and compare the difference in quality, appearance, and detail. With our weathervanes, you won’t have a care in the world.
The amount of time you will need to spend caring for your weathervane is going to vary based on the quality of the materials used in the weathervane. Most weathervanes, especially those made overseas or available through catalogs, are made of low-quality materials held together with even lower-quality solder.
How To Care For Your Fountain
The amount of care you will be required to provide for your fountain feature will depend greatly on the amount of debris the fountain is exposed to. If you are in a heavily wooded area, leaves can fall into some fountain wells and eventually clog the filter.
Dust particles, blowing sand, and mud have all been known to find their way into the fountain wells to create problems. But, there are certain steps you can take to care for your fountain and keep it clean and functional with minimal effort.
Consider These Steps:
Look at the surroundings of the fountain and take preventative measures to keep those elements from getting near the fountain.
Watch your water levels. If your fountain runs out of water, the motor pump could overheat and become disabled.
Clean your fountain at least every six months. If you are in an area where debris is high, this demand for cleaning could be as much as every month or every other week. Make sure to check the filters and take the unit apart so that the grime and algae will be removed.
The great thing about unique fountains is that the small amount of periodic maintenance required is far outweighed by what they offer the look of a home or business.
