I am serching for a lighted, floating fountain for my 3 acre pond. I will be using the fountain primarily at night as a water feature. A height of 10-15 feet lighted spray would be nice. I would like it to be 120V so I can plug into an outlet that I already have. If possible, I would like to have at least a 200' cord. I know I may be asking a bit much. Can anyone recommend a good reliable company that I can purchase a flexible plug-and-play fountain?
Thanks,

Might be hard to get 15ft display with 120 volt usually need a 1-2 hp for large dispaly. This means 200 volts. Also remember the longer the cord the less power to the fountain. We sell both Vertex and Kasco fountains if interested.

Thanks Greg and Bob. Greg, I'll study your site and give you a call. I guess I'll have to erect that power pole at the end of my property after all!

I have sold many Aquamaster fountains and have found them to be worth the price.

I'm looking for something similar, but on a little smaller level. It doesn't have to go that high and I don't need that much cord. I want something that would be a pretty good aerator too. Price is also a factor here, Can't spend a fortune, but don't want junk either, guess I'm asking too much as well.
20 yr. old 3/4 Acre Pond in Central Louisiana, maybe 6'-7' deep average, 10'-12' deepest. Long ago stocked with BG and LMB. Pond is now overpopulated and muddy, fishing isn't near as good as it once was. Any input appreciated.

If you have 120 volts on your place, you probably have 240 volts as well. Just run a 240 volt circuit out as close as you can with a heavier gauge wire to reduce voltage drop. Be sure to use Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter style receptacles to avoid electrical shock. Probably much cheaper than having the utility company set a new service.

We have the perfect "Fountain in the Box" for your use as a fountain and without the diffuser disc, an aerator.
****Edit, edit, edit......******
I wrote a big description and benefits of our fountain and then realized, I'm selling on this information blog page...a big no, no. So, highlighted and delete.
Call me for your distributor near you to obtain pricing.
