It also has a luxury spa and extensive conference and banqueting facilities.</p><p>The hotel is a highly popular venue for weddings and boasts an idyllic lakeside setting – the perfect backdrop for photographs. This lakeside setting has recently been aesthetically enhanced by the installation of two Kasco 4400EJF decorative fountains with Redwood Nozzles.</p><p>The Kasco 1HP 4400EJF decorative fountains are a perfect way to beautify any larger pond or water-garden. The fountains have recently been improved through the enhancement of the housing, impeller and nozzles to create an even better product.</p><p><a href="{{#staticFileLink}}8009726900,original{{/staticFileLink}}"><img class="align-left" src="{{#staticFileLink}}8009726900,RESIZE_584x{{/staticFileLink}}" width="550" alt="8009726900?profile=RESIZE_584x" /></a>Both flow rate and pattern size have been improved without increasing amp draw. This dramatically improves aesthetic appeal without increasing operating costs or fountain pricing. In addition, assembly, as well as nozzle changes are faster and easier.</p><p>This versatile fountain comes with six interchangeable nozzle heads, giving you the option to choose and change the spray pattern as you wish. There are also optional lighting packages available.</p><p>The Kasco range of products are extremely popular with hotels like Waterton Park and also with theme parks, stately homes, country parks, or other venues looking for a stand-out water feature.</p><p>Commenting on the fountains installed at Waterton Park, Jack Wooller from Water Garden UK said: “The fountains look incredible. As you walk over the bridge you are now greeted by these wonderful fountains either side which have a high-rise effect. They offer an opportunity for a bride and groom to get that perfect picture.”</p><p>As importers of the Kasco brand, KAR UK has seen a huge increase in the demand for the products and so too has Water Garden UK. It has been a fruitful partnership to date and recently KAR UK awarded Water Garden UK with the 2019 top sales award after its impressive distribution of Kasco products.</p><p>“The business relationship with KAR UK is going really well, and it is growing year on year,” said Jack. “In fact, each year we’ve been working with KAR UK we have beaten the last in terms of sales. Long may it continue.”</p><p>For more information, please visit <a href="http://www.karuk.com">www.karuk.com</a></p></div>New Kasco J Series fountainshttps://landscapejuicenetwork.com/profiles/blogs/new-kasco-j-series-fountains2020-07-22T15:24:48.000Z2020-07-22T15:24:48.000ZFusion Mediahttps://landscapejuicenetwork.com/profil/FusionMedia<div><p>KAR UK has revealed that the new and improved J Series fountains by Kasco are now available. </p><p>Kasco J Series fountains are the perfect focal point in any pond or lake.
