Those ribs are not decoration. Water follows the horizontal channels as it descends rather than falling freely, which holds it against the surface and controls how fast it travels. The result is a continuous trickle instead of a splash, and it is the quietest sound of any piece this tall in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThat matters more than it sounds. Most fountains near four feet are built to be heard across a garden. This one is built to be heard from a chair beside it and nowhere else, which makes it one of the few pieces at this height that works next to a window, a reading spot, or a home office. Warm white LEDs sit at the top of each column and light the water as it starts down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eOne placement note before anything else. The slate is dark, close to charcoal. Against a white fence, pale render, or light gravel the staggered outline is instantly legible, which is why the product photography uses exactly that. In front of a dark stained fence or a mature hedge it flattens out by mid afternoon and you lose the shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv class=\"wfo-a-facts\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"wfo-a-fact\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e50.7 in.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHeight\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"wfo-a-fact\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e9.8 in.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDepth\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"wfo-a-fact\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e46.3 lb.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"wfo-a-fact\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarm LED\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLighting\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003csection class=\"wfo-a-section\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3\u003eWhat Makes This Fountain Different\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cul class=\"wfo-a-benefits\"\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRibbing that does acoustic work, not visual work.\u003c\/strong\u003e A smooth faced fountain lets water fall freely, and free falling water makes noise when it lands. Horizontal channels keep the water in contact with the surface the whole way down, so it never gathers speed and never gathers into a drop. What you get is an even continuous trickle at four feet of height, which is a combination almost nothing else offers. If you have wanted a tall water feature but not the sound that usually comes with one, this is the piece that solves it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnder ten inches deep.\u003c\/strong\u003e Four columns on a 9.8 inch footprint means it goes into the strip along a fence, beside a door, or against a wall without narrowing the walking space. Most floor fountains this tall need considerably more floor.\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStaggered heights instead of one flat face.\u003c\/strong\u003e Four columns at different heights give the piece depth from an angle rather than reading as a single slab. It also means the water starts at four different points, which layers the trickle rather than repeating it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRated for indoors as well.\u003c\/strong\u003e The quiet flow is what makes that realistic. A four foot fountain producing a splash is a lot inside a room. This one is closer to background than to feature, so a hallway, a home office, or a sunroom are workable.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"wfo-a-finish-note\"\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eWhat the water sounds like\u003c\/strong\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eThe quietest tall piece here. Because the ribbed channels hold water against the surface for the entire descent, there is no free fall and no impact, so the sound is a low continuous trickle with no rhythm to pick out. It works beside seating, under a window, and in a room. It will not cover traffic or a neighbor's equipment, and it is not trying to. How loud it seems will still shift with the water level and whether it sits against a hard wall, which is why a fixed decibel number would tell you nothing useful about your own space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/section\u003e\n\n  \u003csection class=\"wfo-a-section\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3\u003eQuick Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003ctable class=\"wfo-a-spec-table\"\u003e\n      \u003ctbody\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eDesign\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFour staggered columns with horizontal ribbed channels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eResin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eFinish\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRibbed slate texture, dark grey\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eDimensions\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16.9 in. long, 9.8 in. wide, 50.7 in. high\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e46.3 lb.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eWater flow\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGuided descent along horizontal channels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eLighting\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarm white LED at multiple tiers\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePump\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIncluded submersible pump, UL certified\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePower\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAC plug in, 110V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eWater connection\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSelf-contained, no plumbing required\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eRecommended use\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIndoor and outdoor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n      \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n    \u003c\/table\u003e\n  \u003c\/section\u003e\n\n  \u003csection class=\"wfo-a-section\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3\u003eSetup, Care, and Warranty\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cdetails\u003e\n      \u003csummary\u003eSetup and placement\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"wfo-a-answer\"\u003e\n        \u003cp\u003eFill it, plug it in, done.
