Know before you buy
The kit comes with everything required for a standard installation, including the three drilled basalt columns, a 51.5-inch diameter basin, a high-flow pump, and all necessary plumbing components.
No, this is a recirculating system. You simply fill the 95-gallon basin with water, and the pump continuously cycles that same water through the columns.
You will need a level area at least 52 inches in diameter to accommodate the basin. Additionally, ensure you have access to an outdoor electrical outlet within reach of the 20-foot pump cord.
No, the decorative pebbles used to cover the basin and surround the base are not included. This allows you to choose a stone color and texture that best complements your specific landscape design.
Basalt is a dense, durable volcanic rock that holds up well to the elements. However, in regions with freezing temperatures, you should drain the basin and store the pump indoors during winter to prevent damage.
The kit is designed for straightforward installation, but it does require some physical effort to position the heavy stone columns and level the basin. We recommend having at least two people available to assist with the placement of the basalt.
