GIST Concrete Products Block Fountain

Yes, at 369 lbs, this fountain is substantial and designed to remain stable on a level surface without needing to be anchored.

Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC) is actually lower maintenance than traditional concrete. It is less prone to cracking and lighter in weight, though you should still drain and cover it during freezing winter months to prevent water expansion damage.

This is a freestanding, self-contained unit. You will primarily need to position the fountain, connect the included electric pump, and fill the basin with water to get it running.

Given the weight of 369 lbs, you must ensure your deck or patio is structurally reinforced to support the load. We recommend verifying your surface's weight capacity before installation.

The electric recirculating pump is designed to be quiet, allowing the sound of the cascading water to remain the primary acoustic feature. You may hear a faint hum if you are standing directly next to the unit.

Because each piece is handcrafted and made of natural materials, the concrete may develop a subtle patina or slight color variations as it weathers outdoors, which is a normal characteristic of GFRC.
