Closed Top Vase Fountain Kit - FNT60005

Bring rich color, sculptural form, and the calming movement of water to your landscape with the Blue Thumb Closed Top Fountain Kit - FNT60005. This ceramic vase fountain features a deep blue, glossy glaze with subtle tonal variation, a rounded shoulder, and a gently tapered profile. Measuring 16 inches wide by 23 inches high, it creates an inviting focal point without overwhelming a patio, garden, courtyard, or entryway.

This outdoor vase fountain kit combines the decorative vase with a recirculating water system and the major components needed to create a finished feature.

Why Choose This Fountain?

FNT60005 offers the appeal of a handcrafted ceramic water feature with a professionally coordinated operating system. The 30-inch Achelous basin provides a below-surface reservoir, while the included fountain pump supplies the water flow. Quick-disconnect fittings and kink-free tubing help simplify assembly, and the flow-control valve allows the water movement to be adjusted after installation.

Once the basin is installed and covered with the included polished pebbles, the visible result is clean and uncluttered. The rich blue glaze pairs naturally with stone, masonry, wood, and green plantings, giving this bubbling urn fountain the flexibility to work in both traditional and contemporary landscapes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What comes in the kit?

The kit includes the 16" W x 23" H ceramic vase, 30-inch Achelous basin reservoir, 370 GPH mag-drive pump, pre-plumbed hose, kink-free tubing, quick-disconnect fittings, necessary plumbing, flow-control valve, automatic water-fill valve, fountain water-treatment kit, and 4 bags of your selected polished pebbles weighing 40 lb. each.

Is lighting included?

No. Lighting is not included with this closed-top vase fountain, and it does not use a standpipe LED light. Optional exterior fountain lighting is available separately to illuminate the fountain from the outside.

Does the fountain need plumbing?

The fountain operates as a recirculating system, and the necessary fountain plumbing and flow-control valve are included. The automatic water-fill valve requires an appropriate water-supply connection if you choose to use that feature.

Will I still need to check the water level?

Yes. The automatic water-fill valve can help maintain the water level when properly installed, but regular checks are still recommended because evaporation, wind, and splash can affect water levels.

How difficult is installation?

Installation involves preparing a stable location, setting the basin, connecting the pre-plumbed components, positioning the vase, and arranging the polished pebbles. Installation time varies with site conditions and experience. A landscape professional may be helpful when excavation or a water-supply connection is required.

Where can this fountain be installed?

This outdoor water feature is well suited to patios, gardens, courtyards, landscape beds, and entryway settings. Choose a firm, level location with suitable access for operation and routine maintenance.

What maintenance does it require?

Check the water level, remove debris, inspect the pump and plumbing, and clean the vase and basin as needed. The included treatment kit can support routine care; additional fountain water treatments are available for ongoing maintenance.

What should I do during winter?

In cold climates, winterize the fountain before freezing weather. Drain water from exposed components, remove or protect the pump, and follow Blue Thumb or manufacturer care instructions for seasonal storage and protection.

Create a polished outdoor focal point with the distinctive color, gentle water movement, and complete-kit convenience of the Blue Thumb FNT60005 closed-top ceramic vase fountain.
