Oil Jar Vase Fountain Kit - FNT40726

The Oil Jar Fountain Kit - FNT40726 brings a substantial ceramic focal point and moving water into gardens, entryways, courtyards, and other outdoor landscape settings. Its broad, rounded oil-jar profile tapers toward the base, while a green glazed surface, warm earthy accents, and a repeating geometric band around the upper body give the fountain a distinctive hand-glazed character. At 30 inches wide by 34 inches high, it has enough presence to stand on its own without requiring a multi-vase layout. Explore more outdoor vase fountains for additional sizes and styles.

Oil Jar Fountain Kit Highlights

• Generous single-vase design: The 30" W x 34" H ceramic Oil Jar creates a bold landscape centerpiece with a rounded, tapered form.
• Complete recirculating system: The included 48" Achelous basin reservoir stores the water used by the fountain, while the 800 GPH mag-drive pump keeps it circulating.
• Adjustable water flow: Included plumbing and a flow control valve help you fine-tune the fountain's water movement.
• Built-in nighttime accent: An LED light installed on the standpipe illuminates the plume of water after dark.
• Automatic water fill: The included auto-fill valve can help maintain the reservoir water level when properly connected and installed.
• Finished landscape look: Five bags of selectable polished pebbles provide a clean decorative finish over the basin area.

The fountain is paired with a full reservoir system rather than the vase alone. Blue Thumb's fountain basins create the water-storage foundation for recirculating features like this one, while the included fountain pump returns water to the vase through the supplied plumbing.

Why Choose This Fountain?

This Oil Jar design combines a traditional rounded vessel shape with a more artistic surface treatment. The green glaze is broken up by mottled earthy marks and warm brown-toned accents, while the patterned upper section adds texture without making the vase feel overly ornate. The result works well as a focal point in planting beds, near an entry, or in a courtyard where the sound and movement of water can be enjoyed up close.

The kit also reduces the number of separate components you need to source. The basin, pump, plumbing, flow control, LED plume light, auto-fill valve, treatment kit, and polished pebbles are all included.

What comes with the Oil Jar Fountain Kit?

The kit includes the 30" W x 34" H ceramic vase, 48" Achelous basin reservoir, 800 GPH mag-drive pump, LED standpipe light, plumbing and flow control components, automatic water fill valve, fountain treatment kit, and five bags of selected polished pebbles at 40 lb. each.

How difficult is installation?

The system is designed as a complete fountain kit with the main components needed for installation. Actual installation time and site preparation will vary based on the location and conditions.

Does the fountain need plumbing?

The fountain recirculates water using the included basin, pump, tubing, and plumbing. The included automatic water fill valve also needs an appropriate water-supply connection if you choose to use that feature.

Will I need to add water?

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

What maintenance does the fountain require?

Check the water level, keep debris away from the pump, inspect water flow, and use the included treatment products as directed. Routine checks help keep the fountain operating and looking its best.

What should I do in winter?

In freezing climates, winterize the fountain by draining exposed components and removing or protecting the pump. Follow Blue Thumb or manufacturer care instructions for seasonal shutdown and storage.
