Know before you buy
No, the unit does not include a water pump. You will need to source a pump separately that can accommodate a flow rate of approximately 20 gallons per minute to achieve the intended cascading effect.
The copper is left in its natural state and will develop a unique, greenish-brown patina as it is exposed to the elements. This is a natural aging process that adds character and protects the metal from further corrosion.
The manual match-lit system requires you to light the flame with a lighter each time, while the 12V electronic ignition allows for remote operation and includes an auto-relight feature that keeps the flame lit even in windy or rainy conditions.
Yes, the bowl is compatible with both fuel types, but you must specify your preferred fuel source at the time of purchase. The internal burner components are configured differently for natural gas versus propane to ensure safe and efficient operation.
No, this is not a self-contained system. It requires professional installation to connect the gas lines, electrical components for the ignition, and the plumbing necessary to circulate water through the scupper.
To ensure longevity, keep the burner ports clear of debris and ensure the water flow is properly balanced. Because the burner is made of 304 stainless steel, it is highly resistant to rust, but regular inspections are recommended to ensure the gas flow remains unobstructed.
