Know before you buy
GFRC stands for Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete. It is used because it provides the realistic, rugged texture of natural stone while being significantly lighter, which makes the fountain easier to move and install.
Yes, this is a complete kit. It includes the two cascading rocks, an accent rock, a 70-gallon basin, an 1110 GPH pump, all necessary plumbing, and initial water treatment tablets.
You will need to keep the basin filled to compensate for natural evaporation and periodically clean the pump intake to prevent debris buildup. The included water treatment tablets help manage water quality, but you may need to purchase additional treatments over time.
Assembly is required and involves positioning the rocks, connecting the plumbing to the pump, and ensuring the basin is level. While the components are manageable, the 110-pound total weight means you may want a second person to help with placement.
The fountain is designed for outdoor use, but it is not explicitly weather-resistant against freezing conditions. In colder climates, you should drain the water and store the pump indoors during winter to prevent damage from ice expansion.
The two-tier design creates a dynamic, cascading flow that produces a noticeable, tranquil splashing sound. It is designed to provide a soothing ambient noise suitable for gardens or patios.
