Frequently Asked Questions

What comes in the kit?

The kit includes the 19.5" W x 36" H ceramic vase, 36-inch Achelous basin, 660 GPH mag-drive pump, necessary plumbing and flow control, automatic water-fill valve, fountain water-treatment kit, and four 40 lb. bags of selected polished pebbles.

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.

How difficult is installation?

The coordinated components, prepared vase plumbing, kink-free tubing, and quick-disconnect fittings are designed to simplify installation. Actual installation time depends on the site, excavation, base preparation, and surrounding landscape.

Does the fountain need plumbing?

The necessary fountain plumbing is included, and water recirculates between the vase and basin. The automatic water-fill valve requires an appropriate connection to a water supply if that feature will be used.

Will water still need to be checked?

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

What routine maintenance is required?

Check the water level and pump periodically, remove debris as needed, and use the included water treatment according to its directions. Routine inspection of the tubing, connections, basin, and water flow will help keep the fountain operating properly.

What should I do during winter?

In freezing climates, winterize the fountain, drain water from exposed components, and remove or protect the pump as appropriate. Follow Blue Thumb or manufacturer care instructions for seasonal protection.

With its dramatic charcoal-and-red finish, textured ceramic form, concealed reservoir, and coordinated operating components, the FNT3357 offers a polished way to add the sights and sounds of moving water to an outdoor setting.
