Know before you buy
Yes, because this spout is made from 100% copper, it will naturally develop a rich, dark patina when exposed to outdoor elements. If you prefer to keep the original polished look, you will need to apply a metal sealant periodically.
While the copper is rust-free and durable, saltwater environments are highly corrosive to many metals. We recommend checking with your pool technician to ensure your specific water chemistry is compatible with copper fixtures to prevent premature degradation.
To achieve the optimal 1-2 GPM flow rate, you should pair this spout with a small, adjustable-flow submersible pump. Ensure the pump is rated for at least 120-150 gallons per hour to account for head pressure and tubing length.
Yes, the 1/2 inch Male NPT is a standard plumbing size, making it widely compatible with most flexible tubing and PVC adapters found at local hardware stores. You may need a female-to-female adapter depending on your existing plumbing setup.
No, the copper construction is rust-free and designed specifically to avoid the staining issues common with iron or steel fixtures. It is safe to use over porous surfaces like light-colored stone or spa tiles.
