Giannini Garden Green Man Ruin Water Fountain

No, it does not require any plumbing. The fountain uses a recirculating electric pump that cycles the water already in the basin, so you only need access to a standard outdoor electrical outlet.

This material is engineered for longevity and is significantly stronger than standard concrete. It is designed to withstand outdoor elements year-round, ensuring the fountain remains a permanent fixture in your garden for generations.

Yes, a recirculating electric pump is included with your purchase. Installation is straightforward: simply place the fountain on a level surface, connect the pump, fill the basin with water, and plug it in.

While the cast stone is durable, we recommend draining the water and covering the fountain during freezing temperatures to prevent ice expansion from causing cracks. If you live in a climate with harsh winters, storing the pump indoors is also advised.

Maintenance is minimal. You will need to keep the water level topped off to protect the pump and occasionally clean the basin to prevent algae buildup. Using a fountain water treatment can help keep the water clear and reduce cleaning frequency.

Because of the fountain's weight and size, it must be placed on a solid, level surface like a concrete patio, stone pavers, or a reinforced deck. Avoid placing it directly on soft soil or grass, as the weight can cause the fountain to shift or sink over time.
