Granite Hybrid Rectangular Basin Fountain
The rectangular basin fountain feature varies in height as it follows the walkway hardscape grade changes. Fountain hybrid construction consists of concrete basin floor combined with thick granite basin seat walls. The fountain incorporates eighteen cascade jets, producting geyser-like eruptions of foamy, frothy white aerated water which falls in a conical pattern. Each jet is illuminated by a submersible niche-mounted white light. The fountain equipment is located in a pre-assembled underground vault system.
