Mist fountains are essentially made of three main components: mist maker unit, a decorative bowl, and power unit. Decorative bowls come in different size and shapes.

Power unit provides the power to mist maker unit. Mist maker unit does all the magic with modern technology. To zoom in, there is a quartz element in this mist maker unit that vibrates at ultrasonic frequency. A ceramic membrane right on top of the quartz unit receives these ultrasonic vibrations.

The ceramic membrane within this mist-maker unit acts as an alchemist. It converts water into cool mist through the ultrasonic vibrations!

The mist maker unit also consists of light emitting diodes (LEDs) - these LED's add the vibrancy of varying colors and create visually stimulating environment.

So, that's how a mist fountain works!

First, here are the things you need:

• mist maker unit


• A/C adapter


• Splash guard or center stand


• Lid [or small bowl] to prevent water from splashing out of bowl - Fountain bowl or any bowl you choose


• Fountain stand or a base to place the fountain bowl

And here are your easy-to-implement design techniques:

1. Begin by putting your misting unit at the bottom of the bowl together with splash guard.


2. Next drape the cord of the misting unit to the back side. This will ensure that cord is out of the way.


3. Now pour water to just above the sensor of the mist maker unit and put the lid on top of the stand. Remember not to use distilled water as specified earlier.


4. Lastly, plug your misting unit to the A/C adapter and you're done.

Try it and enjoy your very own mist water fountain.

People often wonder whether dry ice is used to create the fog effect. Although the effect is the same, it does not mean that it works in the same way. Because of the high frequency vibrations (1.7 million pulses per second) of the electronic module, it causes water molecules to escape from the water. The fog effect is brought about by the suspended water vapor in the air.

As in any other products, you need to watch out for some things such as the ceramic disk. This is the part that when struck generates electricity and creates the vibration effect. It wears out faster when oils and minerals are used in the water. When there is a decrease in mist volume or it does not produce mist anymore, then it is time to change the disk.

The Misting Fountain should be completely submerged under water because it is designed that way. Failure to do so will damage it easily.

Don't use pure distilled water because it will take away the conductivity of the water. If you have allergic reaction to small particles in the air, you can use distilled water provided you add table salt into the water.

Although the moist created by the Misting Fountain keeps the environment healthy, you need to watch out for excessive moisture. There are several things you can do to eliminate this. Add ventilation near the fountain to distribute humidity in the room. Place the fountain under a towel. It does not only protect the surface it also helps in the evaporation process. The fountain should be kept in an open area.

A Misting Fountain does not only add aesthetic value to your room but more importantly, the health benefits far outweigh the cost of purchasing one for your home. To browse aesthetic magic mist fountain collection, visit tabletop fountain store.
