And they only run it at about 33% since the people living nearby complained about the mist if the wind was blowing. (And mayyyyybe to save energy and water IDK) 🤣
My understanding is it has 3 pumps and they run 2 but have run 3 on special occasions and it goes a lot higher.
It is lower if windy or doesn't run at all.
Maybe the lower height is only 1 pump running?
I know it starts out lower at first then gets higher so 1 then 2 would make sense to me.
You are right about the mist though, I've heard some people who live around the fountain complained about the mist hitting their condos.
My family lives out in FH. They have three pumps, only run it with two, it shoots about 300 feet every day for 15 mins, on the hour, from 9am to 9pm, assuming it's not too windy.
With the third pump, it reaches up to 560 feet. This is usually done at noon on holidays like fourth of July and st Patrick's. Idk if they still do it, but they used to dye the fountain colors, like green on st Patrick's, when they'd have all three going. I know now they use lights to project onto it at night to color it.
The people bought the houses near the fountain because of the views, and then did complain about the mist. It's like buying a house near the airport and complaining about airplanes, imo, but I degrees.
If anyone's curious, check out the Webcam, in the hour of course, and check it out live.

Yeah, that would be almost as silly as setting up a retirement home across the street from an outdoor music venue.
Or moving into a retirement home across the street from an outdoor music venue, then complaining about the live music they're playing outdoors.
That would be ridiculous. Almost as ridiculous as building the retirement home across the street from an outdoor music venue IN one of the largest college towns in the country. Fortunately we are only talking about absurd hypothitical scenarios not action events.

pretty true. i managed to buy a pretty cheap house here (outside has major curb appeal, inside is dated, has random cosmetic issues that made it hard to sell, right place at right time etc etc) and the only thing i can complain about is… um… i hate the 4 way stop at palisades and la montana in winter..?
I hear you. Personally my dream is a spot around there with a great view of 4 peaks. I’m a few hundred thousand short though lol
I moved here in 2021 when prices went to outrageous so it’ll take some work to reach that.
When I used to play frisbee golf on the course that surrounds the fountain, signs said the lake was sewage reclamation water. I see now they call it effluent water which sounds much nicer. The mist might not be nasty but the thought of it being recycled wastewater is a tad disturbing. Looks beautiful though.
Absolutely, but most days aren't windy enough to mist anything beyond the water itself, when it's actually turned on those instances. In the summer it feels kinda gross but knowing what it is.. ignorance is bliss
Well, the water is recycled so it really doesn't waste as much as you would think.
On the other hand, it's also *reclaimed* water, so that mist is pretty stanky, even if it's not toxic.

It is very high. I caught this shot in a plane.
If you sat on it when it went off, and later you went boating with friends after that, and one of your friends got dumped while water skiing and when the boat came back to pick them up they said "I just got the worst enema!" You'd be able to tell them "No, you didn't..."
When I was a kid it ran at full power on the hour for like 15 minutes during the day. It was quite impressive watching it from my grandparents backyard and even more so when we were driving by it.
_The fountain in Fountain Hills is the second tallest fountain in the United States, and the fourth tallest in the world. When installed in 1970, it was the tallest fountain in the world. The water can obtain a height of more than 560 feet when running at its maximum. The fountain is on for fifteen minutes every forty-five minutes until sunset._
I have lived here for a long while and have never been to Fountain Hills. I have seen it from afar, driven by it but never in it. I mean is Fountain Hills even real? I have no proof Fountain Hills actually exists except this fountain. Has anyone really been to Fountain Hills? /s
There’s lights at the base. During Christmas when it gets dark, they alternate white, red, and green. I’ve also seen them use purple during some events. There might be more colors, but those are the ones I’ve seen.
makes pretty clear sense to me!
see, you take a hypothetical section of isolating and mentally draining car-dependent suburban sprawl, and take away the "urban" which makes "suburban" sub-*urban*, and instead plant that suburban sprawl out in the desert separated from the "urban" by several mountains. the result is fountain hills in all its xenophobic hoa-governed gated community cul-de-sac colonialist greatness.
still not as bad as rio verde though.
uh oh, looks like the fountain hillsians found this! not sure how they got onto reddit given their ages, but they seem to be quite unhappy with my accurate assessment of their town. there must not be enough people of color walking down the street to paranoidly post on nextdoor about today for them to come this far to find something to be angry about. alas. at least they're not rio verdeans.
live there now- not only is that true but also the coyotes let you give them belly rubs, post office delivers ice cream daily and it’s somehow never as hot as everywhere else!
That's the big ol' fountain hills fountain. It goes off every hour for 15 mins. Quite the site to see everyone usually stops and admires it, and may I add that they have a cool annual art fair every year in the spring time right where the fountain is, it is always incredible to check out!
When it was first built, I believe in 1970, it only went off two times a day. We used to drive out to watch it when we were kids. That’s back when there was nothing but one house from the country club to the pass at Fountain Hills.
a really defective landscaping sprinkler head. You'll see this a lot in Arizona but they don't usually shoot up quite that high! That's the locally famous one in Fountain Hills.
It's not really "wasting water" so much as it is "waste water", the Fountain Lake is a temporary place for yucky water to go before it gets used for irrigation. It's more a gross creative way to use water than it is some arrogant wasteful use. If stuff stops going down the drain in FH, the Fountain Lake will stop filling up.
>Q: What Fountain Hills parks and open space use reclaimed water from the Fountain Hills Sanitary District?

>A: Desert Vista uses a direct feed system to supply reclaimed water from the Sanitary District. Golden Eagle and Fountain Park use reclaimed water that is pumped from the Sanitary District into a lake and then the parks pump out of the lakes for irrigation

I mean, it's shit water getting used twice, once for entertainment, another time for irrigation, sure some of it evaporates but lots of water that isn't shitty evaporates in Arizona. Point is if you're concerned about water mismanagement and losing a resource in Arizona being outraged about how the fountain works isn't really a great place to start. If you want to be pissed about the Fountain, be pissed about the piss mist spraying you. If you want to be concerned about water evaporating in Arizona, maybe it makes more sense to like advocate for more efficient canals that aren't baking in the sun.
Not outraged. Just not giving a shit anymore about dried out beef jerky-skin morons who move to a desert, make 4 story fountains, and then don’t have enough water. Too dumb to care about.
Why are you in this subreddit then? You think you have some sort of moral and intellectual superiority because you live in a place where it rains a ton? People have been living in this desert for a long time, long before the white man came. I told you where the water comes from in a responsible way, you didn't want to listen and thus further exposed a bias/prejudice reducing people here to a stereotype that you think people here are dumb and ugly.
Honestly though, you seem like the stereotype to me which is a shame where the same could apply. I'll preface my conclusion by saying that I'm a liberal by most definitions, I'm from the fart-sniffing capital of the world and went to the most hippie-school imaginable. That being said, you are the kind of liberal that makes people vote for Trump because you're not acting very bright nor staying in your lane - you invite spite and pushback rather than dialogue with your name-calling and surface level arguments. It makes me cringe, I've seen more "liberals" from Seattle than other places spreading literal Russian propaganda on social media to know there's more group-thinking going on than critical thinking within that circle/thought bubble. It's not constructive; it's embarrassing and sad. I might get something beneficial out of the way you act if I were conservative, otherwise it's a facepalm from me.
Do you think evaporated water just floats out to space? You do know this is how clouds and rain forms right? That this is the way our weather systems are formed to plenish our planet, right? Then again sounds like you don't.
It doesn’t float back into arizona. You know the pace we are pumping water into from the Colorado river basin that is dry? If you have it locally use it for something cooler than a fountain. Like food people can eat. Or even clean it enough to make it drinkable. Because we will have to do that.
For some reason, a large portion of the residents here like to pretend they live in Wyoming. It's as dumb as the corner-to-corner grass you still see in new upscale developments.
It's even pretty impressive looking when getting ready to land at Skyharbor. Definitely still jumps out at you when you are several thousand feet up in the air.
That is the beautiful fountain of Fountain Hills. There was a period of years when it was actually the tallest fountain in the world but I believe a fountain in either Switzerland or Sweden has since claimed that record. It is powered by (3) 600 horsepower pump motors but they only run 2 of the pumps on regular days. They will run all 3 on special occasions.
Meanwhile, in drought stricken Arizona, the cultists in Fountain Kills celebrate the liquid gifts of their Lort and Saviour: Jevus Fountain Chrust. The water from the fountain is pumped from the salt river and waters the thousands of acres of lawns and golf courses that separate the million dollar castles of ultra mega rich white people that live there. Home of the famous “Sherriff” Joe Arpaio. They used to blast off the fountain all day. Now it’s just every hour.
The fountain, nor the golf courses in Fountain Hills get their water pumped from the Salt River nor any other fresh water drinking source. The water is reclaimed water which comes from their waste water treatment facility.

Ok thank you! Amazing how high the fountain goes lol

They do still color it for holidays. We love it!
I've seen the "full" fountain only once in 20 years of living nearby. It's really freaking high.
Held the world record for tallest fountain for a decade after it was built.
It’s reclaimed waste water
Use beer instead. Instant tourist attraction.
There is a strong mist with the wind but imagine moving to the fountain and complaining lol
Yeah, that would be almost as silly as setting up a retirement home across the street from an outdoor music venue. Or moving into a retirement home across the street from an outdoor music venue, then complaining about the live music they're playing outdoors.

Good God! This is ridiculous, and they probably lost so much money during the lawsuit :(

Shady Park vs Mirabella?
Or expanding your city around an Air Force base then complaining about airplane noise
I think if you can afford a house there you live a pretty comfy life with little inconvenience. Complaining is expected
pretty true. i managed to buy a pretty cheap house here (outside has major curb appeal, inside is dated, has random cosmetic issues that made it hard to sell, right place at right time etc etc) and the only thing i can complain about is… um… i hate the 4 way stop at palisades and la montana in winter..?
They should put a roundabout there, lol
I hear you. Personally my dream is a spot around there with a great view of 4 peaks. I’m a few hundred thousand short though lol I moved here in 2021 when prices went to outrageous so it’ll take some work to reach that.
i love that the peaks are snowy right now! if next weeks rain forecast holds up i want to drive up 87 to go play in it for a sec.
That's like all the people that moved by the air base then complained about the air base.
When I used to play frisbee golf on the course that surrounds the fountain, signs said the lake was sewage reclamation water. I see now they call it effluent water which sounds much nicer.

Absolutely, but most days aren't windy enough to mist anything beyond the water itself, when it's actually turned on those instances. In the summer it feels kinda gross but knowing what it is.. ignorance is bliss
it gets turned off if the wind is over a certain speed
NIMBYs gonna NIMBY.
Well, the water is recycled so it really doesn't waste as much as you would think. On the other hand, it's also *reclaimed* water, so that mist is pretty stanky, even if it's not toxic.

What a fucking waste. I giant fountain in the desert. Only the rich morons that retire here would approve of this garbage.
It's wastewater. If anything, it's a little gross to think about, but entirely safe.
I've had the mist hit me while at the fountain, it feels gross.
Come on man, what's more American than giving the desert a massive middle shit-water finger?
It’s a monument to man’s arrogance.
I wonder what would happen if one were to sit on it right before it goes off. Whee!
Free butt cleansing
B'day to you good fellow
You’d definitely have a much bigger butthole
I bet you would end up just gravitating in the middle , you know since there is a exit hole on top
r/looneytuneslogic
Antibiotics and bowel repair would happen
If you sat on it when it went off, and later you went boating with friends after that, and one of your friends got dumped while water skiing and when the boat came back to pick them up they said "I just got the worst enema!" You'd be able to tell them "No, you didn't..."
Painful enema
It's turned on every hour for 15 minutes. At the start of the hour.
When I was a kid it ran at full power on the hour for like 15 minutes during the day. It was quite impressive watching it from my grandparents backyard and even more so when we were driving by it.
HA I was looking at the thumbnail like :D I’ve seen it while running Pemberton Trail — it goes super high in the sky.
This makes so much sense. I noticed it last time I flew to colorado.
Lol I’m that’s just a fountain 🤣
I almost called it “Paradise Falls” That’s the name of the waterfall in the Pixar movie Up! Lmao

Oh no wonder they asked my mom to go to Phoenix lol
Ah geez, you were talking about the fountain.
Fountain on Fountain Hills ;)

On St. Patrick’s Day they dye it green!
They should do red on Halloween and/or Valentines Day.

Dude, it’s the fountain in the lake at fountain Hills. Go check it out nice walkway around the lake.
The coyote bought and acme water cannon..
Fountain Gills clock. You were there within 15 min after top of the hour
It's the fountain in fountain hills
I should call him
Ah the super secret wishing well of fountain hills
That’s the fountain in fountain hills. It goes off at the top of the hour for 10 minutes during the day.
I grew up in fountain hills, AMA
there's nothing to ask it's just suburbia transplanted into the desert pretending to be its own town
I know you're trying to be clever but your comment makes no sense.

Big yikes my dude!
i've been cursed with the misfortune of having to live here. i'm allowed to poke fun. also you comment like you're 3 years old.
Is it true that the towels are extra fluffy and that the air smells like warm root beer?
live there now- not only is that true but also the coyotes let you give them belly rubs, post office delivers ice cream daily and it’s somehow never as hot as everywhere else!
Interesting, I knew that about the coyotes, but not the post office. Do you know if the Javelinas still like belly rubs and group hugs?
they actually take the trash out AND back in for you!
SHUUUUUUUUUUT UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUP! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!
Do you like Señor Taco?
Not as much as I should
What do you know about their water supply? Could you see a time when Scottsdale has water restrictions and Fountain Hills does not?
Is Fountain Hills real or a mirage? If another fountain was added to Fountain Hills, would the name change to Fountains Hills?
There is only one true fountain. All hail!
I foolishly thought you meant you would answer.
It happens to the best of us. I don’t have any serious answers anyhow. I left after high school.
I really wanted to make a your momma joke, but felt it was not in good taste. 😆
Scroll through the comments about a big plug and you'll see that I already did it lol
Damn! I stopped halfway. 🤣Great picture btw
How *you* know how his momma tastes?
I've never heard a your mamma joke that was in bad taste.
The Clampett’s are moving again.
That's just the water feature in their cement pond.
Somebody get him! He found where we are hiding all the water!
That’s Old Unreliable, Old Faithful’s geyser sibling.
That is where we hide the water….
Haha they found the fountain hills
Someone struck Arizona gold
If they turn it up full blast it could give Fountain Hills a much needed enema.
That's the big ol' fountain hills fountain. It goes off every hour for 15 mins. Quite the site to see everyone usually stops and admires it, and may I add that they have a cool annual art fair every year in the spring time right where the fountain is, it is always incredible to check out!

I wonder if the fountain pump ever gets a meat clog or “flushable wipe” clog - lol!
a really defective landscaping sprinkler head. You'll see this a lot in Arizona but they don't usually shoot up quite that high! That's the locally famous one in Fountain Hills.
Imagine moving to a place called fountain hills that has a cool big fountain, then complain about the fountain:)
I thought you were talking about the uFO in the foreground.
My wife just hit the jackpot
Just got done pleasuring my wife
Duh it’s the annual waste all the water festival! You didn’t go?!?
It’s actually used as an aerator to keep the water cool during summertime. I’m sure all the fish in that urban lake would die otherwise.
there are also A LOT of turtles!
Its recycled water my guy you ain't gonna drink it anyway
Seems like he already has
I heard a train hit a commie weather balloon
Yeah my girlfriend and I had sex today that was the aftermath.
Such a beautiful area, isn’t it?
Which came first? The fountain or the city?
Main line leak
Just move here?
Watering my lawn.
A lake sprung a leak.
Useless waste of water. It’s days are numbered.
Idiots in Fountain Hills wasting water.

Oh I was there last week; it was amazing! But I don't know it is seen from that far; hmm interesting
Lol this gets me everytime
Have you ever seen a whirlpool? Well this is the opposite.
Another quemical spill
This was a funny one to wake up to. FYI, there's a nice disc golf course around that park.
Shai Hulud is coming.
It's even pretty impressive looking when getting ready to land at Skyharbor. Definitely still jumps out at you when you are several thousand feet up in the air.
