Know before you buy
Yes, the fountain includes the necessary submersible pump and hardware. You will only need to provide a standard 110V GFCI outlet to power the unit.
Because this fountain is made of cast stone, it is weather-resistant but not frost-proof. You must drain the water, remove the pump, and cover the fountain or store it in a dry, protected area during freezing temperatures to prevent cracking.
This is not a self-contained unit. You will need to install it over a basin or reservoir that can hold the water and house the pump, as the column design itself does not store water.
The cast stone is designed to develop a natural patina over time as it weathers outdoors. To maintain the finish, simply keep the surface clean of debris and periodically check the pump for any clogs to ensure consistent water flow.
Assembly is required and involves setting up the column and connecting the internal plumbing to the pump. Due to the weight and size of the cast stone components, we recommend having at least two people assist with the installation.
Yes, the fountain is available in twenty different hand-applied finishes. These finishes are applied by the Giannini family to ensure a unique, artisanal look for each piece.
