Blue Thumb Granite Sphere

Yes, these are complete kits. You will receive the granite sphere, the Achelous molded basin, the mag-drive pump, all necessary plumbing and tubing, and the decorative black polished pebbles.

Consider the scale of your surrounding landscape. The 16-inch sphere is ideal for smaller patios or intimate garden corners, while the 24-inch option creates a more dramatic focal point for larger open areas.

Yes, the granite is a natural, durable stone. However, in climates with freezing temperatures, you should drain the basin and disconnect the pump during winter to prevent damage to the plumbing and pump components.

The sound is generally described as a soothing, gentle trickle rather than a loud splash. Because the water flows smoothly over the polished surface of the sphere, it creates a calming ambient noise perfect for relaxation.

Yes, the included mag-drive pump features built-in flow control. This allows you to easily adjust the water pressure to achieve your preferred visual effect and sound level.

Maintenance is minimal. You will occasionally need to wipe down the sphere to remove debris or algae buildup, and you should keep the basin clean to ensure the pump continues to operate efficiently.
