Ravello Courtyard Concrete Fountain

No, the fountain is self-contained and does not require external plumbing. You simply need to place it on a level surface and connect the included pump to a standard outdoor electrical outlet.

The fountain weighs 750 lbs. Because of this significant weight, it is essential to place it on a solid, level surface like a concrete patio or a reinforced stone pad to prevent settling or tipping.

The cast stone concrete is designed to develop a natural patina over time. This process adds character and a weathered, antique aesthetic that varies based on your local climate and exposure to the elements.

Yes, a high-efficiency pump with a flow rate of 795 GPH is included. It is specifically calibrated to provide the necessary pressure for water to cascade gracefully from the copper spouts.

If you live in an area that experiences freezing temperatures, you should drain the fountain and store the pump indoors during the winter. Allowing water to freeze inside the concrete or the pump mechanism can cause structural damage.

Maintenance is relatively low, but you should periodically clear debris from the basin and ensure the water level remains high enough to keep the pump fully submerged. Using a fountain-safe algaecide can also help keep the water clear and prevent buildup on the concrete.
