- Continuous Water Flow: The fountain's circulation system ensures water is constantly moving and filtered, keeping it fresh and appealing to your pet.
- Visible Water Level: Regularly check the water level indicator on the front of the fountain. Refill the reservoir when the water level is low to prevent the pump from running dry.
