Easy setup with the included fitting and tubingCommon Questions
How are the Faux Basalt Columns made?
These columns are made by hand using fiberglass sheets, resin, and stone aggregate.
What if the surface gets damaged or chipped?
Surfaces can be fixed easily with common items like:
- Black shoe polish
- Permanent marker
- Outdoor paint (Chocolate brown and Lamp black)
What plumbing options are there?
Each column comes with 3/4″ flexible tubing and a small clear fitting. This fitting can be swapped for one of the Aquascape Fountain Lights to light up the water outlet. For more water flow, the column can fit 1″ Schedule 40 PVC pipe.
Can I secure the base in public or windy areas?
The columns are built to handle normal conditions, and gravel is usually enough for stability. However, for extra security, you can drill through the fiberglass base and anchor it to the surface using hardware or zip ties.
Can the base be changed for custom use?
YES! The base can be cut to fit into smaller spaces using a grinder or Sawzall. Make sure to wear proper eye and breathing protection when cutting fiberglass. Note: If parts of the base are removed, ensure the columns are well supported and secured during installation.
