Gist Block Fountain

No, this is a manual-fill system. You simply fill the basin with water, and the recirculating pump handles the rest, allowing you to place it anywhere on your patio or garden without needing complex plumbing.

GFRC is significantly stronger and more durable than traditional concrete. It is reinforced with glass fibers, which makes the material lighter while offering superior resistance to cracking and weathering over time.

Yes, weighing in at 264 pounds, this fountain is substantial and stable. It is designed to remain securely in place on flat, level ground without the need for additional anchoring.

Maintenance is straightforward: you will need to periodically top off the water level to account for evaporation and clean the pump intake to prevent debris buildup. We also recommend draining and covering the unit during freezing winter months to protect the finish.

While the fountain is freestanding, its 264-pound weight is significant. Ensure your deck structure is rated to support that concentrated load before installation, and consider using a protective mat underneath to prevent moisture buildup on the wood surface.
