Know before you buy
The kit comes with the hand-chiseled granite millstone, the necessary water pump, and the subsurface basin required for the fountain to operate. You will have all the essential components to get the water flowing once it is installed.
Because this is a self-contained system, it does not require external plumbing. However, due to the 550-pound weight of the granite, you will need assistance with placement and should ensure the ground is level before burying the basin.
While the granite itself is durable, the fountain is not rated as weather-resistant for freezing conditions. We recommend draining the water and storing the pump indoors during winter to prevent damage from ice expansion.
Maintenance is relatively low, focusing primarily on keeping the water clean and ensuring the pump remains free of debris. You should periodically check the water level to account for natural evaporation and top it off as needed.
Yes, the fountain operates on an electric pump. You will need access to a standard outdoor GFCI-protected outlet nearby to power the system.
The cascading design is specifically engineered to create a soothing, consistent water sound. It is effective at masking low-level ambient noise, though the exact volume will depend on the surrounding environment and the water flow setting.
