Know before you buy
The primary difference is the height of the stone columns. The Short Kit features columns at 18, 24, and 30 inches, while the Tall Kit offers 24, 30, and 36-inch columns. The Tall Kit also includes a more powerful 1980 GPH pump to accommodate the increased water lift.
Yellow onyx is a natural, durable stone that is weather-resistant. To maintain its appearance, simply rinse the columns periodically to remove debris or algae buildup, and ensure the pump remains submerged to prevent mineral deposits from drying on the stone surface.
Yes, the kit includes an adjustable pump that allows you to control the water flow rate. Increasing the flow will create a more pronounced splashing sound, while a lower flow offers a gentler, more subtle trickle.
The kit is designed for straightforward installation and includes all necessary components, such as the basin, pump, and decorative pebbles. You will need to level the ground for the 48-inch basin and have a standard outdoor electrical outlet nearby for the pump.
Because yellow onyx is semi-translucent, it naturally catches and diffuses light. While the kit does not include integrated lighting, adding an underwater LED light in the basin will cause the columns to glow from within, creating a striking visual effect.
The basin measures 48 inches in diameter, so you should clear a space at least 4 to 5 feet wide to allow for the basin and easy access for maintenance. Additionally, ensure the site is relatively level to ensure the water cascades evenly across the columns.
