Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which petal style should I choose?
A: The 4-petal Wildflower offers a simpler, organic aesthetic ideal for cottage gardens. The 6-petal Daffodil provides fuller, more dramatic visual impact perfect for formal gardens or bolder statements. Consider your garden style and desired visual weight.
Q: Will the brass change color over time?
A: Yes. Brass naturally develops a patina, transitioning from bright gold to warm amber and eventually to verdigris green. This aging is considered desirable. To maintain the original golden finish, apply brass polish or protective sealant periodically.
Q: What pump size do I need?
A: We recommend a pump that delivers 600-900 GPH at your installation height. Consider the vertical distance from pump to spout (head height) when selecting pump size, as flow decreases with height.
Q: Can I install this myself?
A: Professional installation is recommended. Proper installation requires drilling through the wall, waterproofing the penetration, providing structural backing, and making secure plumbing connections to prevent water damage.
Q: Do I need the Wall Spout Mini Basin Kit?
A: The basin kit (PBSSBK, sold separately) is recommended for a complete, self-contained wall fountain. It catches and recirculates water from the spout. You can also use the spout to feed water into an existing pond or water feature.
Q: What is the thread size on the back?
A: Each spout has a 1" female thread connection on the back, a standard size that accommodates most plumbing fittings.
Q: Can these spouts withstand freezing temperatures?
A: The brass spouts are highly weather-resistant and can remain installed year-round. However, winterize the water system in freezing climates by draining all water from lines and pump to prevent freeze damage.
Q: How do I maintain the brass finish?
A: For natural patina development, no maintenance is required. To maintain the bright golden finish, periodically clean with brass polish and apply a protective sealant.
Q: How far does the water project from the wall?
A: Water typically extends 12-18 inches from the wall at recommended flow rates (600-900 GPH), allowing adequate clearance for basin placement while creating an attractive water arc.
