Fiore Stone Pioggia Fountain

Cast stone is incredibly durable, but it is porous. We recommend sealing the fountain once a year to prevent water absorption and potential cracking during freeze-thaw cycles, and cleaning it periodically with a soft brush and mild soap to remove algae or debris.

Yes, if you live in a climate that experiences freezing temperatures, you must drain the fountain completely and cover it. Trapped water that freezes can expand and cause the stone to crack or chip.

The pump is designed to be accessible, typically housed within the central structure of the fountain. While it is a self-contained system, you will need to occasionally remove the pump housing to clear the intake of any leaves or buildup to maintain consistent water flow.

No, this is a recirculating system. You simply fill the basin with water, plug it into a standard outdoor GFCI outlet, and the pump continuously cycles the same water through the tiers.

Because it is made of solid cast stone, this fountain is quite heavy. While a poured concrete pad is the most stable foundation, a level, compacted bed of crushed stone or pavers is also sufficient to prevent the fountain from shifting or settling unevenly over time.

Yes, because each piece is made to order, you have several finish options available. We recommend requesting a finish sample if you are trying to color-match specific hardscaping, as cast stone textures can vary slightly in how they absorb pigments.
