You can find small fountain kits for $50 or even less. A slighter larger fountain, whether bought as a kit or assembled on your own, more likely will run in the $100-to-$500 range. More elaborate installations, especially ones that involve hiring a pro for electrical, plumbing and construction work, can cost between $1,000 and $10,000. You can pay considerably higher, though, depending on the design and features.
Also, expect an increase in your water bill if you run your fountain full time. Your electric bill also may increase unless you are using solar power. These increases may be modest, but they could be much more if you have a large fountain. It’s often recommended to keep your fountain running, both for aesthetics and to prevent wear on the pump, but you can turn it off at night.
