PetSafe Drinkwell Platinum Pet Fountain

The best selling cat drinking fountain on amazon is the PetSafe Drinkwell Platinum Pet Fountain, your pets can drink from the bowl or the running stream, this fountain is 168 ounces, which is a good size if you have more than one pet.

Your pet should drink one ounce of water per pound of body weight per day, so keep you pets hydrated is is so very important as it helps prevent urinary and kidney diseases.

 The Drinkwell Platinum is a high quality product with a larger capacity than other fountains in the same price and size range, which means less frequent filling.

The motor is nearly inaudible. It is easy to use and clean and my cats love it

Here are some of the features of the PetSafe Drinkwell Platinum Pet Fountain:

• Receiving ramp reduces splash and sound of falling water
• Adjustable flow control to change flow and circulation of water to be slower or faster
• Built-in reservoir increases capacity and makes refills easy
• Rubber feet on bottom to help prevent fountain from moving or sliding
• Low-voltage, 12V system with inline-plug connection for safe operation and easy pump removal

Maintaining and Cleaning Your Fountain

  Try soaking the reservoir in a 2-to-1 vinegar-to-water mixture for 15 minutes when it start to smell.

When you fountain stop flowing efficiently try emptying all the water out and disassemble the unit. Once you get the pump out you will see the intake is clogged with hair. I used an old toothbrush to remove all the hair.

The filters should be replaced every 3-4 weeks and there is an option to buy your Drinkwell Platinum Unit Plus 3 filters at a good value price. The activated carbon water filters are made from organic coconut shells

There is also a  Drinkwell Platinum Combo Unit that comes with a Bonus Cleaning Kit., 3 sizes of cleaning bottle brushes to get in those hard to get places.
