AquaOne uses a sealed source design — clean water and used water are physically separated. The pump sits inside the sealed clean tank and only ever touches fresh source water. Every 6, 8, or 12 hours the bowl automatically drains and refills from the sealed clean source. No recirculation. No contamination cycle.

#1 Vet-Recommended Cat Hydration Device
Every other fountain on the market recirculates the same body of water through the bowl, pump, and filter. Saliva, hair, and bacteria re-enter within seconds of your cat drinking.
AquaOne's Sealed Source Design means the water your cat drinks has never been contaminated. The drinking surface is 304 stainless steel — no plastic chin contact, no chin acne pathway.
Fresh water delivered on a schedule means your cat always has a clean surface to drink from.

- First Week Adoption Guide
Weekly — under 5 minutes: Rinse the stainless drinking tray and wipe the head unit with a damp cloth.
Every 3 months: Run a vinegar-water rinse through the system for descaling.
No 25-minute disassembly. No little brushes. No vinegar soaks that don't work. The auto-drain and auto-refill cycle removes the daily lifting and scrubbing traditional fountains require.
Orders are processed and shipped within 1–2 business days.
Delivery typically takes 5–7 business days depending on your location.
In some cases, delays may occur, so please allow up to 14 business days for your order to arrive.
If your cat won't drink from it, send it back, no questions asked.
The Problem
That Slimy Film Inside Your Cat's Fountain?
That's What Your Cat Is Drinking.
It's Serratia marcescens. It lives behind your pump, inside the filter housing, in crevices you can't reach. Cleaning the bowl doesn't fix it.
Other fountains share water between the bowl, pump, filter, and cat, allowing saliva and hair re-enter. Carbon filters don't reduce bacteria. They host it.
The pump only ever touches clean source water. The drinking surface refills from a sealed source every 24 hours. The slime never starts.
Why Novacora
We Didn't Redesign The Cat Fountain. We Started Over.
Every other fountain on the market shares one body of water between the bowl, the pump, the filter, and the cat. AquaOne uses two physically isolated sealed chambers, and the pump never sits in the water your cat drinks from.

How To Use AquaOne
What Ownership Actually Looks Like
You Threw Your Last
Fountain In The Bin. We Get It.
You've tried PetLibro. Catit. Maybe Drinkwell. The pump died. The slime came back. Every other fountain on the market has the same three design flaws built in. AquaOne solves all three.
"I couldn't believe the difference. My cat walked straight up to it and hasn't stopped drinking since. She used to barely touch her old fountain but now she's at it multiple times a day. Worth every penny."
Verified Customer
"Finally a fountain that doesn't take half my Sunday to clean. Rinse the tray, rinse the sponge, done. My last fountain had parts I couldn't even reach with the little brush they gave you. This is completely different."
Verified Customer
"I've bought so many cat fountains over the years and every single one has let me down. The pump dies, the slime comes back, the filters cost a fortune. This is the first one that actually does what it says it does."
Verified Customer
"With my old fountain I was finding pink slime within days no matter how often I cleaned it. I've had the AquaOne for two months now and nothing. The water looks exactly the same as the day I filled it."
Verified Customer
"My last fountain sounded like a washing machine, especially when the water got low. This one is completely silent. I actually had to check it was still running. My cat doesn't even flinch when it activates."
Verified Customer
"The fact that there's no cord is great. My old fountain had to sit right next to an outlet which was never where I actually wanted it. Now it just sits where my cat likes to drink and I don't have to think about it."

For The Faucet Cat
Your Cat Only Drinks From The Tap? We Hear You.
The faucet-obsessed cat is its own category. She'll yowl until you turn on the kitchen tap. She refuses bowls on principle.
More Than One Cat?
Two Cats. Three Cats. Four Cats. AquaOne Handles It.
Most cat parents end up with two. Here's why:
Cats look for water in different spots. One fountain upstairs, one down means fresh water's always close, so they drink more.
More than one cat? A single fountain turns territorial — the bold one guards it, the shy one quietly misses out.
Two means one's always running while the other's cleaned. Your cat's never left without.
Health Concerns?
For The Owner Whose Vet Asked Her To Get The Cat Drinking More
Your vet has told you she needs more water. Maybe she's senior. Maybe she's been diagnosed with CKD or had a UTI. You want her water to be clean, fresh, and available when she goes to it.
Owners in the same position consistently report greater peace of mind once the daily refill chore stops being theirs.

The Math
What It Costs To Own A Fountain For 5 Years
The sticker price is one number. The ownership cost is another.
| AquaOne |
PetLibro Capsule |
Catit Flower |
|
|---|---|---|---|
| Sticker price (one-time) | $179.95 | $39.95 | $29.95 |
| Filter cost (per year) | $0 | $96 | $60 |
| Replacement units required | 0 | 5–10 | 5–10 |
| Estimated 5-year total | $179.95 | $680–$1,080 | $350–$700 |
And the math doesn't count the time you spent throwing the last five in the bin, or the slime you scrubbed out of plastic crevices.
