SIZING

Is 5 HP the right choice for your lake?

Yes, if: lake is 3 to 5 acre, you want signature commercial visibility, and you have 230V single-phase service (no 3-phase available). 5 HP is the maximum single-phase commercial-tier fountain.

Consider 7.5+ HP if: lake is 5+ acre, you have 3-phase electrical service available at the site, or you want ultra-premium signature displays from Vertex MultiGeyser or AerationJet. Call (470) 354-1969.
