Absolutely. Indoor water fountains, especially tabletop and desktop models, are low-maintenance. Just keep an eye on water levels so the pump stays submerged, and refill as needed. Cleaning is straightforward—drain, wipe with mild soap, rinse, and refill. Occasional deep cleaning (2–3 times a year) helps prevent mineral buildup if you're not using distilled water.
Distilled water is strongly recommended. It prevents mineral buildup that can clog the pump or leave unsightly residue on the fountain’s surface. If distilled water isn't accessible, filtered water can work as a secondary option.
Tabletop fountains are designed for quiet operation, perfect for work or relaxation spaces.

Placing the fountain away from high-traffic spots helps maintain calm and avoid accidental disturbance.
