No, the decorative pebbles are not included. You will need approximately 200 pounds of pebbles to cover the basin area and complete the look.
Yes, the fountain is constructed from durable copper designed specifically for outdoor placement. Over time, the copper will naturally develop a unique patina, which adds to the artistic character of the piece.
Maintenance is straightforward thanks to the included stainless steel mesh prefilter bag, which protects the pump from debris. You should periodically check the pump and clear any buildup from the mesh to ensure consistent water flow.
The kit requires assembly, but it is designed to be a complete, self-contained system. You will need to set up the basin, install the pump, and secure the copper tree, which is manageable with basic tools and following the provided instructions.
No, this specific kit does not include lighting. However, because it is a standard outdoor water feature, you can easily add submersible LED spotlights separately if you wish to illuminate the tree at night.
