    Vortex Fountain in GFRC by Gist G-VRTX

    The Vortex Fountain has become a favorite in recent years, with a sleek, twisted design that can be admired from every angle. It is also offered with an 18-inch sphere on top and looks especially striking in a rustic finish. Water cascades from the top, flows over a geometric tier, and into the basin below for a soothing, audible sound. Cast in GFRC (glass fiber reinforced concrete), it offers the natural appearance of stone at a lighter weight and greater durability. A recirculating pump and manual-fill design mean no plumbing and no installation.

    • ✔Self-contained recirculating fountain — no plumbing needed
    • ✔Choose from Gist's range of hand-applied finishes
    • ✔Handmade to order in the U.S.A. — ships in about 8 weeks

    Important: Install on leveled ground

    Important: Fountain should be placed on a flat, solid base. Fountains need to be on a level surface to operate correctly. The location you choose for your fountain should be firm and level, both for safety and the fountain’s performance. Fountains with a basin should be installed on a thin layer of sand, approximately 1” to 2” in depth, on top of a concrete pad, to reduce the risk of stress cracks to the basin and help with leveling. Pedestal-style fountains should be installed on a solid level foundation. If needed, a concrete pad can be used as a base to avoid erosion caused by rain, sprinklers or splash. It will also prevent the fountain from becoming unlevel.

    Note: The manufacturer is not responsible for the fountain tilting due to the ground settling, causing cracking or damage. It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure the ground underneath the setup area is solid and leveled. A leveled fountain pad must be used. If one is not used, it will void the warranty.

    Winter Care and Maintenance Winter Care: Winterizing your outdoor fountain becomes non-negotiable to protect it from freezing temperatures, cracks, and costly repairs. Freezing water expands, which tends to damage the various components of your fountain, such as the basins, pumps, and internal plumbing, if not handled properly. In order to prevent winter damage, start with the right preparation, so your fountain can remain safe, intact, and ready to shine when spring returns.
