How are the Faux Basalt Columns made?
These columns are handcrafted using fiberglass sheets, resin, and stone aggregate.
What if the surface gets damaged or chipped?
Surfaces can be easily repaired with commonly available products such as:
- Black shoe polish
- Permanent marker
- Outdoor paint (Chocolate brown and Lamp black)
What plumbing configurations are available?
Each column comes with 3/4″ flexible tubing and a small clear fitting. This fitting can be replaced with one of the Aquascape Fountain Lights to illuminate the water outlet. For higher flow rates, the column can accommodate 1″ Schedule 40 PVC pipe.
Can I secure the base in public or windy areas?
The columns are designed to withstand typical conditions, and gravel is usually sufficient for stability. However, for added security, you can drill through the fiberglass base and anchor it to the desired surface using hardware or zip ties.
Can the base be modified for custom use?
YES! The base can be cut to fit into tighter spaces using a grinder or Sawzall. Proper eye and breathing protection should be worn while cutting fiberglass. Note: If parts of the base are removed, ensure the columns are adequately supported and secured during installation.
