Bring warm color, graceful movement, and the relaxing sound of water to your landscape with the Tuscany Fountain Kit - FNT30085. This complete outdoor vase fountain kit features a single ceramic vase with rounded shoulders, a gently tapered body, and a wide rolled rim. Its glossy amber-brown glaze is enriched with darker mottled accents, fine speckling, and subtle blue-gray streaks near the lower portion, creating an earthy, hand-glazed appearance with plenty of individual character.
Measuring 18 inches wide by 28 inches high, this ceramic vase fountain is sized to become a noticeable garden, courtyard, or entryway water feature without overwhelming the surrounding landscape. Water bubbles from the center and flows across the curved surface before returning to the concealed reservoir below. Explore more styles in Blue Thumb’s collection of outdoor vase fountains.
The 36-inch Achelous reservoir stores the recirculating water below the decorative pebble surface. Blue Thumb offers additional fountain basins and water reservoirs for other water-feature projects, along with recirculating fountain pumps and replacement pumping equipment.
Blue Thumb fountain vases are high-fired, inspected, drilled, and pre-plumbed to simplify installation. The included flow-control valve lets you adjust the water presentation, while the quick-disconnect plumbing system makes connecting the pump and vase more straightforward. Natural variations in the hand-glazed color and texture give each ceramic fountain its own decorative character.
The included LED fixture adds nighttime interest by illuminating the water near the top of the vase. Additional outdoor fountain lighting is available for customers planning a larger landscape-lighting design.
The kit includes the ceramic vase, 36-inch Achelous basin, 800 GPH pump, installed LED light, plumbing, flow-control valve, automatic fill valve, water treatment kit, splash apron, and four bags of polished pebbles.
Installation involves preparing the site, positioning the basin, connecting the pre-plumbed vase and pump, testing the flow, and covering the basin with pebbles. Installation time varies based on site conditions and preparation.
The necessary recirculating plumbing and connection components are included. Connecting the included automatic water fill valve to a water supply requires an appropriate water-line connection.
The automatic fill valve can help maintain the water level when properly installed. Regular water-level checks are still recommended because evaporation, wind, and splash can affect water usage.
Yes. An LED light installed on the standpipe is included to illuminate the water plume. The light should be installed and operated according to Blue Thumb’s instructions.
The fountain creates a bubbling and flowing water sound. The perceived volume will depend on the selected flow setting, placement, and surrounding surfaces.
In freezing climates, winterize the fountain, drain exposed components, remove or protect the pump, and follow Blue Thumb’s product-care instructions before sustained freezing weather.
Periodically check the water level, remove debris, inspect the pump and intake, and clean the vase and basin as needed. The included treatment kit and additional fountain water treatments can assist with routine water care.
Create a welcoming focal point with a warm, sculptural ceramic vase, concealed recirculating system, adjustable water flow, integrated lighting, and the essential components needed for a finished outdoor fountain installation.
