Tuscany Vase Fountain Kit - FNT3848

Bring warm, timeworn character and the relaxing movement of water to a garden, courtyard, or entryway with the Tuscany Fountain Kit - FNT3848. This single-vase fountain features a tall, gently tapered ceramic form with rounded shoulders and a substantial rolled rim. Its warm cream-to-tan glaze is layered with muted blue-green and gray streaking, mottled speckling, and distressed earthy accents, while the terracotta-toned rim adds contrast. The handcrafted ceramic look gives this outdoor water feature an artistic presence without overwhelming the landscape. As with other hand-glazed outdoor vase fountains, natural variations in tone and texture help give each piece individual character.

Complete Outdoor Vase Fountain Kit

This coordinated recirculating system combines the listed 18-inch-wide by 29-inch-high ceramic vase with a concealed 36-inch Achelous reservoir, an 800 GPH mag-drive pump, required plumbing, adjustable flow control, LED lighting, automatic water fill, water treatment products, and polished pebbles. Water is stored below the decorative stone in the hidden fountain basin, then returned to the vase by the included recirculating fountain pump. The result is a clean landscape installation with a gentle bubbling plume and flowing-water movement at the top.

Key Features

• Hand-glazed style: Warm neutral coloring, subtle cool-toned streaks, rustic mottling, and a terracotta rim create an aged, artisan-inspired appearance.
• Balanced proportions: At 18 inches wide and 29 inches high, the fountain is substantial enough to become a focal point while remaining versatile.
• Hidden water storage: The 36-inch Achelous basin measures 36 inches in diameter and 16 inches high, keeping water below the finished pebble surface.
• Adjustable flow: The standpipe assembly and flow-control valve allow the water flow to be adjusted after installation.
• Built-in illumination: An LED light installed on the standpipe highlights the water plume after dark. Explore additional fountain lighting for other water-feature applications.

Why Choose This Fountain?

The Tuscany FNT3848 combines the visual appeal of a weathered ceramic urn with the convenience of a matched fountain system. Blue Thumb prepares the vase with the bulkhead fitting and standpipe plumbing needed for connection, while quick-disconnect tubing helps simplify assembly between the vase and pump. The included basin, pump, lighting, fill valve, care products, and decorative pebbles reduce the need to source major components separately. For ongoing water clarity and surface care, use the included products as directed and browse compatible fountain water treatments when replacements are needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a complete fountain kit?

Yes. It includes the listed vase, basin, pump, LED light, plumbing, flow-control valve, automatic fill valve, water treatment kit, and four bags of polished pebbles.

How difficult is installation?

Installation time varies by site preparation and experience. Blue Thumb notes that smaller vase fountain kits can often be installed in a few hours, making this a practical weekend project for many homeowners.

Does the fountain require plumbing?

The fountain recirculates water through the included pump, tubing, and hidden basin. The automatic fill valve can be connected to an appropriate water supply to help maintain the water level.

Is lighting included?

Yes. An LED light is installed on the standpipe to illuminate the fountain's water plume.

Will I still need to check the water level?

Yes. The automatic fill valve can help replace water lost to evaporation or splash when properly installed, but regular checks are still recommended.

Is the fountain self-contained?

Water recirculates between the vase and hidden basin. A nearby electrical source is required for the pump and light, and the automatic fill feature requires a suitable water connection if used.

What maintenance is required?

Check the water level, remove debris, inspect the pump and tubing, clean surfaces as needed, and use fountain care products according to their directions.

What should I do during winter?

In freezing climates, winterize the fountain, drain exposed components, remove or protect the pump, and follow Blue Thumb and product care instructions before freezing weather arrives.
