Know before you buy
The fountain weighs 644 lbs. It must be placed on a level, solid surface such as a concrete patio, stone pavers, or a reinforced deck to support the weight and ensure the water flows evenly over all four sides.
Assembly is straightforward but requires two people due to the weight of the cast stone components. The fountain comes with a high-efficiency pump and clear instructions to guide you through the setup process.
No, this is a self-contained system. You simply fill the basin with water, plug the pump into a standard outdoor electrical outlet, and the water will recirculate continuously.
In freezing climates, you should drain the fountain completely and disconnect the pump before the first frost. Covering the fountain or storing it in a shed or garage will help prevent the cast stone from cracking due to ice expansion.
Yes, the cast stone is designed to develop a natural patina as it is exposed to the elements. This evolution is a characteristic of the material and typically enhances the old-world aesthetic of the piece.
The two-tier design creates a gentle, consistent cascading sound. It is loud enough to mask low-level background noise like distant traffic, but soft enough to remain relaxing for conversation on a patio.
