Blue Thumb Kanji Fountain Kit

Yes, it is a complete, all-in-one kit. You will receive the granite cube, the 36-inch Achelous AquaBox basin, the 660 GPH magnetic drive pump, all necessary plumbing components, and the decorative black polished pebbles.

Because this is an in-ground fountain, you will need to excavate an area large enough to accommodate the 36-inch basin. Ensure the ground is level and compacted before setting the basin to prevent the fountain from shifting or tilting over time.

Yes, the granite cube weighs 550 lbs. Its substantial weight and the design of the basin ensure it remains stable and secure once placed, even in windy conditions.

The magnetic drive pump is designed for high efficiency and reliability, but it should be checked periodically for debris, especially if you have trees nearby that drop leaves. Simply rinsing the pump intake and ensuring the water level in the basin remains consistent will keep the flow smooth and quiet.

While the granite itself is weather-resistant, you must winterize the system in freezing climates. This involves draining the basin and removing the pump to prevent water from freezing inside the plumbing or pump housing, which could cause damage.

The included 660 GPH pump provides a consistent, serene flow over the four sides of the cube. While the pump is powerful, it is designed for a specific flow rate to achieve the intended aesthetic, so you generally won't need to adjust it once installed.
