Roubaix Concrete Fountain

No, the Roubaix is a self-contained unit. It does not require any external plumbing or a dedicated water line; you simply fill the basin and plug the pump into a standard outdoor electrical outlet.

Due to the significant weight, you must place the fountain on a level, solid surface such as a concrete patio, stone pavers, or a reinforced deck. Placing it on soft soil or grass may cause the fountain to shift or settle unevenly over time.

The cast stone is treated with a specialized stain designed to weather naturally. As the fountain is exposed to the elements, the finish will soften and develop unique tonal variations, giving it a more authentic, aged appearance.

While the cast stone is weather-resistant, water expanding as it freezes can crack concrete. We recommend draining the fountain completely and covering it—or storing it indoors—during freezing temperatures to ensure its longevity.

Maintenance is minimal. You should periodically top off the water level to compensate for evaporation and clean the pump intake of any debris. Using a water treatment product can also help prevent algae growth and keep the water clear.

Yes, the fountain is delivered as a complete, self-contained unit. Because of its substantial weight and size, we recommend having assistance available to help position it exactly where you want it upon arrival.
