Water pumped up through the centre of the sphere bubbles gently over the surface and returns to the basin below, creating continuous gentle water movement with no open water surface and minimal maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Self-Contained Fountain With No Open Water Basin\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFountain kits built around a reservoir concealed below grade have no accessible open water surface, making them safe around children and wildlife while still providing the sound and visual benefit of moving water. The slate sphere style is one of the most popular water feature forms in residential gardens because it blends naturally with stone and planting beds. The kit format eliminates compatibility guesswork by pairing all components to function together from the first installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSphere Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e46 cm (18 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKit Contents\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStacked slate resin sphere, submersible pump, basin, hardware\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWater Feature Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePondless bubbling fountain (no open water surface)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInstallation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePartially below grade, basin buried under decorative stone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExcavate a hole for the basin in the chosen location. Place the basin, install the pump inside it, and route the pump tube up through the sphere's centre hole. Set the sphere on the basin grate and cover the surrounding area with decorative stone to conceal the basin and pump. Fill the basin with water until the pump is fully submerged. Plug the pump into a GFCI-protected outdoor outlet and adjust the flow rate to produce a gentle bubbling surface effect rather than a strong jet. Top up the basin with water as evaporation occurs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIdeal for garden beds, patio corners, and entryway displays where a natural-looking water feature is desired without a full pond excavation or open water basin.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aquascape","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52698345767231,"sku":"AQ-78249","price":879.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/8260\/9215\/files\/aquascape-pond-kits-default-title-aquascape-extra-small-stacked-slate-sphere-18-fountain-kit-43287375479103.webp?v=1776379185","url":"https:\/\/pondsonline.ca\/products\/aquascape-extra-small-stacked-slate-sphere-18-fountain-kit","provider":"Ponds Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
