Frequently Asked Questions
Is each fountain truly unique?
Yes. Every Copper Fountain Tree is individually handcrafted by our designer in England. Each leaf and branch is hand-cut and shaped, meaning no two fountains are exactly identical. Your fountain will have its own distinctive character while maintaining the signature Extra Tall Oak design aesthetic.
How does copper change over time?
Copper naturally develops a beautiful patina when exposed to the elements. Initially bright and metallic, it will gradually transition through warm bronze tones before eventually developing a classic verdigris finish. This natural aging process adds depth and character to the sculpture. If you prefer to maintain the original copper finish, protective sealants are available.
What maintenance is required?
The included stainless steel mesh prefilter bag minimizes maintenance by preventing debris from entering the pump. We recommend periodic cleaning of the basin and prefilter, checking water levels regularly (especially in hot weather), and winterizing the fountain in freezing climates by draining the system and storing the pump indoors.
Do I need polished pebbles?
While not required for operation, polished pebbles enhance the visual appeal by concealing the basin and creating a natural, finished look. We recommend approximately 200 lbs. of polished pebbles for optimal coverage and aesthetic impact. Pebbles are available separately.
Can this fountain withstand outdoor conditions?
Absolutely. The copper construction is inherently weather-resistant and designed for permanent outdoor installation. The mag-drive pump is built for continuous operation, and all components are selected for durability. In regions with harsh winters, we recommend winterizing the fountain to protect the pump and plumbing from freeze damage.
Is professional installation recommended?
While the complete kit includes everything needed for installation, professional installation is recommended due to the fountain's size, weight, and the precision required for optimal performance. The kit includes detailed instructions for those comfortable with DIY water feature projects.
How much electricity does the pump use?
The 1495 GPH mag-drive pump is designed for energy efficiency. Mag-drive pumps typically consume significantly less electricity than traditional pumps while delivering superior performance. Exact consumption depends on your specific electrical rates and operating schedule.
Can the water flow be adjusted?
Yes. The included ball valve allows you to fine-tune the water flow to achieve your desired effect, from a gentle trickle to a more dramatic cascade.
