can you use it in outdoor water fountains

Yes. The dunks will end up on the lowest level , but the good bacteria will be in the water everywhere. Some people think they look unsightly. I'd deem not having skeeters more imprtant than a few chunks, but you could always net them out before a party, then but them back after.

Sure but put them in fine mess material so that bits won't be sucked into pump. Also as mentioned by another responder, if meshed, you easily remove if you think unsightly for a social occasion.

It is an outdoor water fountain as it has a guarded cord, but if you use an extension cord with it I would use something similar to this: Farm Innovators Model CC-2 Cord Connect Water-Tight Cord Lock - Green to protect the plug. The only thing the instructions warned was not to use when 40 degrees or below, as it would damage the motor.

This particular LED lights is not intended for outdoor use. There are some water proof LED outdoor lights available in the market.

I would not use it for that purpose. You should always treat water in outside sources before drinking.

I would say yes you can use it outside but I would give it some shelter from the sun and rain. Also, you may have more issues with algae if the ponds gets a lot of sunshine, requiring more carbon changes

Yes. I use mine in a circulating water bath. I've had it submerged for as long as 72 hours and it still works.

I've only had experience using them on indoor plants. You can use them on outdoor plants I'm sure, but depending on how hot it is outside may effect how quickly the water is used up.

You could use it but it would be very powerful, as I use it to circulate 6500 gallons of water. Also it can not be submerged in water. I hope this helps.

I don't believe it is water proof. With a bit of plastic covering it it might be ok outside. I'm not sold on its effectiveness at all in any application. I have had one in for many months now and I'm still going to get a water softener due to water spots etc. Sorry.

No,it is not intended for outdoor use, however if it is placed where it will not be directly exposed to the elements, it should be fine. If you place it under a porch, gazebo, or similar protection, so that it isn't soaked by a rainfall, there should be no worries.

Yes you can. That is the reason I purchased it and it works great. The tiles are a hard plastic with area for the water to pass.

I use in fresh water. You will have to check with the manufacturer. Good Luck.

Only if the fountain is low to the ground, and not well then. The hoses are flimsy and not weighted so flop around.

I wouldn't trust it in open rain/weather. It could always be placed under an upturned flower pot, etc. The battery is not the problem...it only generates a small trickle of water and is likely insufficient for anything but the smallest fountain.

I don't see any reason why this can't be used outside in shaded area besides water getting hot or cold due to outside weather conditions. Hope this helps.

I don't think so. When I take it out to change the water, I need to put it in the shade to stop it from running. We only use it when we're home so we can add water to the birdbath as needed. I really do like this little fountain. Works great and is very enjoyable.
