Know before you buy
The standard basin is constructed from solid cast stone, while the Easy Pond® configuration features a lightweight core designed to reduce overall weight while maintaining the same aesthetic. The Easy Pond® version also has a larger footprint, measuring 84 inches in diameter compared to the 70-inch diameter of the standard basin.
No, this is a self-contained system. It recirculates the water within the basin, so you do not need to install any external plumbing.
The fountain arrives in sections and requires professional assembly due to the weight of the cast stone components. We recommend having a team or equipment ready to position the heavy column and basin pieces securely on a level surface.
Yes, the cast stone is designed to develop a natural patina as it ages. The material is porous, which encourages the growth of moss and lichen, giving the fountain a classic, weathered French-inspired aesthetic.
The fountain includes a 2,000 GPH pump that requires a standard outdoor electrical outlet. Ensure your chosen location is within reach of a GFCI-protected power source.
While the cast stone is weather-resistant, we recommend draining the fountain and covering it during freezing temperatures to prevent water expansion from cracking the concrete. Always ensure the pump is removed and stored in a dry, frost-free location during the winter months.
