Product Description The Cape Dutch On Tap is a classical, heritage-inspired wall fountain meticulously crafted in durable cast stone concrete to celebrate iconic South African Cape Dutch architecture. Designed with a curved, gabled backplate crowned by an authentic ornamental motif, water flows gracefully from a central brass-look tap spout, arching softly into the matching semi-circular catch basin below.
Weighing a manageable 20kg with a slim 57cm width, 25cm depth, and 95cm height, this concrete fountain delivers exceptional stability and outdoor weather endurance while occupying minimal floor space. Its space-smart, flush-back profile and gentle trickling water sound make it an ideal focal point for courtyard walls, narrow garden walkways, entrance pillars, and covered verandas, serving as an elegant, accessible freshwater oasis for visiting birds and pollinators.

Installation & Foundation Guide Position flush against a solid boundary wall, brick pillar, or firm vertical garden trellis. Ensure the base rests on a flat, level, and well-compacted foundation such as paving stones, a concrete slab, or a treated timber deck to support the 20kg mass evenly. If wall-mounting, utilize heavy-duty masonry fasteners rated for the concrete weight. Check levelness with a spirit level before filling to ensure the water arc falls neatly into the center of the catch basin. Submerge a compact fountain pump inside the basin reservoir and route flexible tubing up to the back of the tap spout (submersible pump sold separately).
Maintenance & Care
- Keep the catch basin generously filled with clean water to prevent the submersible pump intake from running dry.
- Periodically remove fallen leaves, blossoms, and garden debris from the reservoir to maintain clear water and protect the pump.
- Treat with a concrete-friendly, bird-safe algaecide to prevent green algae buildup along the basin floor and backplate.
