Know before you buy
No, this is a self-contained system that does not require any external plumbing. The kit includes the pump, basin, tubing, and fittings, allowing for a straightforward setup in your garden or courtyard.
Because each column is hand-chiseled from natural granite, every piece features unique swirls, mineral deposits, and color depth. While the dimensions remain consistent, the specific patterns and textures of the stone will be one-of-a-kind.
Maintenance is minimal, primarily involving keeping the basin free of debris and ensuring the water level remains sufficient to cover the pump. You may also need to occasionally clean the pump intake and wipe down the granite columns to maintain their polished appearance.
In regions where temperatures drop below freezing, we recommend draining the basin and storing the pump indoors to prevent damage. Natural stone is durable, but standing water that freezes can expand and potentially crack the basin or plumbing components.
The included Achelous basin measures 48 inches in diameter and stands 16 inches high. You should ensure you have a level, stable area at least 5 feet in diameter to accommodate the basin and provide easy access for maintenance.
Yes, the kit includes a flow control valve that allows you to adjust the water output. This lets you fine-tune the intensity of the cascade to achieve your preferred sound level and visual effect.
