Why Choose the Outdoor Water Solutions Backyard Windmill?

Galvanized Steel Built for the Outdoors

Both models are constructed from galvanized steel designed to resist rust and hold up through years of outdoor exposure. The 11'6" model uses hot-dipped galvanized (HDG) steel — a higher-grade finish that adds extra durability for the larger tower.

Sturdy 4-Leg Tower Design

A four-leg base provides superior stability, keeping the windmill upright and steady through strong winds and changing weather conditions.

One-Piece Rotor Head — Proportioned to Each Tower

The 8'3" model features a 27-inch one-piece rotor head; the 11'6" model carries a 30-inch rotor head. Both are sized to match their tower for a classic, proportional windmill silhouette.

Sealed Bearings — No Maintenance Required

High-quality sealed bearings keep the rotor spinning freely without seizing or locking up. No bushings, no lubrication, no ongoing maintenance.

Easy Installation — All Hardware Included

Each windmill ships with pre-drilled, ready-to-assemble components, stake clamps, ground stakes, and all required bolts, nuts, and washers. The cross brace tensioning system comes pre-assembled. Most customers complete installation in under an afternoon — just add concrete to secure the base.

Spins Freely in Natural Wind

Designed as an ornamental windmill that responds naturally to the wind — adding movement and life to your landscape without requiring any power source.

1-Year Manufacturer Warranty

Backed by a one-year manufacturer warranty on both models.

Why Add an Ornamental Windmill to Your Yard?

Few outdoor features make an impression like a spinning windmill. Whether it’s standing at a garden entrance, anchored beside a pond, or rising above an open lawn, an ornamental windmill adds a sense of character and history that most yard décor simply can’t match.

The Outdoor Water Solutions Backyard Windmill brings that classic farm aesthetic to any property — large or small. Available in two tower heights and two finish options, it’s easy to find a size and style that fits your landscape and your vision.

OWS Backyard Windmill Assembly & Installation Video

Each windmill arrives with pre-drilled components, all required hardware, and ground stakes — everything you need to get it standing. The cross brace tensioning system comes pre-assembled to simplify the process.

Note: Video covers assembly for both the 8'3" and 11'6" models.

Pro Tips for a Smooth Build:

  1. Hand-Tighten First — Do not fully tighten any bolts until the entire tower is assembled. This allows the play needed to align the cross braces properly.
  2. Prevent Rust (Rain Shed) — When connecting leg sections, always place the lower leg section behind the upper leg section. This overlap sheds rainwater away from the joint rather than letting it collect inside.
  3. Maintenance Platform Alignment — The four top legs have holes punched on one side for the decorative maintenance platform. Make sure these holes face toward the top of the tower and are positioned across from each other.
  4. Secure the Head — Install the nylock nut on the front of the shaft before raising the tower. This locks the windmill head securely onto the shaft.
  5. Anchor Brackets — When installing the bottom anchors, position the bracket leaning outward at the top. This makes it easy to slide the anchor rods in once the tower is upright.

Outdoor Water Solutions Decorative Backyard Windmill | Assembly FAQs

What is the difference between building the Small and Large Windmills?

The head assembly and top tower sections follow the exact same process! The main difference is the scale. The Small Windmill features a 27" fan, while the Large Windmill features a 30" fan. The Large tower also requires assembling an additional lower leg section, utilizing 8 standard tower legs compared to the Small model's 4, and finishes with a wider 31" bottom cross member.

How do I ensure the tail tracks the wind properly?

When installing the tail arm, it is very important to ensure that one end butts up against the fan support shaft welded inside the head connection bracket. The other end must be flush with the back of the tail fin bracket. If this is not done correctly, the windmill may not track the wind properly.

What should I do if the windmill fan wobbles?

Each head is precision machined and balanced, but occasionally blades can bend slightly in transit. We recommend spinning the head once it is mounted. If you notice a wobble, simply bend the misaligned blades forward or backward by 1/4" to 1/2" to align them so they turn perfectly straight.
