Controlling Fountain Splash with Filter Media

Disney-style splash control uses 1″-thick mesh filter media (like AC filter pads) submerged at the water surface. It breaks up droplets and absorbs splash energy.

How to Apply

1. Buy poly filter media sheets (hardware store, pond supply).
2. Cut to fit the fountain basin just below the weir or fall point.
3. Secure with weights or zip-ties to the pump housing.
4. If splash persists, reduce pump flow with a valve or smaller pump.

Works best for sheet/weir falls; less effective for high-velocity jets.
