Description
The EasyPro HBS3CSL Tranquil Décor™ Natural Top Real Basalt Column Fountain Kit features three genuine basalt columns at 20", 27", and 35" tall with a defining characteristic: each column has a sloped, angled natural top where water emerges from the core hole and runs unpredictably down the rough volcanic sides. Unlike the polished-top HBR series, the HBS columns have no polishing anywhere — entirely raw natural basalt from top to base. Because the top is angled rather than flat, water spills from various sides on each column, creating organic, asymmetric movement that looks different from every angle. The complete kit includes the FBL48 48" Sturdi-Basin, MP1000 1,000 GPH mag-drive pump, LED8B3 3-light kit with 12V transformer, 3-way flow manifold, and all plumbing.

How the System Works
The MP1000 pump sits inside the FBL48 basin beneath the grating. Water is drawn from the 46-gallon basin, pumped through the 3-way splitter manifold, and routed up through the tubing inside each basalt column's core-drilled channel. At the top of each column, water emerges from the 1-1/4" core hole, hits the sloped natural top surface, and runs unpredictably down the rough stone sides before cascading back into the basin through the grating. The asymmetric, organic flow pattern — varying by column orientation and flow rate — creates the distinctive HBS aesthetic: not the uniform waterfall sheet of the polished HBR, but an irregular, naturalistic movement down the entire stone face.
The 3-way manifold with independent valves lets you tune the water flow to each column separately. At 1,000 GPH total with three columns, the recommended 200–400 GPH per column range is fully achievable across various balancing configurations. The LED8B3 ring lights drop into the 1-3/8" bores at the base of each column, illuminating the water channel from below.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in the EasyPro HBS3CSL Natural Top Basalt Kit?
The complete HBS3CSL kit includes: three genuine natural-top basalt columns (20", 27", 35" tall; 6"–11" diameter; sloped natural tops; natural cut sides); FBL48 Sturdi-Basin (48" diameter, 46-gallon capacity, support block included); MP1000 Tranquil Décor Mag-Drive Pump (1,000 GPH, 93W, 13-ft cord, 1-year warranty); LED8B3 3-light LED kit (three 1-3/8" ring lights + 12V transformer, 10-ft cords); 3-way statuary splitter manifold (#TWS3) with independent per-column flow valves; Triple Basalt Column Plumbing Kit (#PK3L) — kink-free tubing and all fittings.
The columns ship motor freight in a wooden crate. Combined kit weight is approximately 420 lbs.
Are these real basalt columns — and what makes the "natural top" unique?
The HBS3CSL columns are 100% genuine natural basalt volcanic rock — not GFRC, concrete, or resin composites. The "natural top" designation describes the top surface of each column: a sloped, angled natural end — not flat, not polished. Water emerges from the core hole at the top and flows down the sloped surface, spreading to various sides depending on how each column is oriented. Because the top is uneven and angled, the flow pattern is organic and unpredictable — no two installations look the same.
This is distinct from the HBR series (polished top — smooth reflective crown) and the HBK series (keyed spillways — carved channels between columns for a cascade effect). The HBS is the most naturalistic of the three: no polishing anywhere, natural volcanic character throughout.
How much do the HBS3CSL basalt columns weigh?
The three natural-top basalt columns, basin, pump, and all kit components weigh approximately 420 lbs combined. EasyPro's official specification notes that "size, weight, and number of sides will vary" for all natural-top basalt columns — meaning exact weight varies by stone piece. The FBL48 basin with support block can handle 500+ lbs — correctly rated for this kit's load.
For current freight shipping weight and delivery planning, contact us at (765) 508-4352. This kit ships motor freight in a wooden crate — not standard UPS/FedEx ground.
Can I adjust the water flow height for each column independently?
Yes. The kit includes a 3-way statuary splitter manifold (#TWS3) with independent adjustment valves — one valve per column. The MP1000 pump's built-in flow control provides a master throttle, while the manifold valves let you balance flow between columns. EasyPro recommends 200–400 GPH per column. At 1,000 GPH total split three ways, you achieve approximately 333 GPH per column at equal setting — within the optimal range for the HBS column core size.
Note from a user review: the plastic manifold valves can be stiff to adjust when wet. Adjust the valves before starting the pump and allow them to settle at operating pressure before making final flow adjustments.
How do I winterize the HBS3CSL in cold climates?
- Pump (MP1000 — mag-drive): Remove from the basin. Rinse with clean water, drain completely, and store DRY indoors above freezing. Do NOT store in a bucket of water — the MP1000 has no mechanical shaft seals requiring moisture. Water left in the pump housing can freeze and crack the pump body or impeller.
- Basin (FBL48): Drain completely. Leave the pump access door slightly open so any residual water can escape rather than freeze inside.
- Basalt columns: The natural basalt is frost-resistant. However, drain water from the core-drilled channel (tilt each column briefly to let water run out). Water trapped in the narrow core bore can freeze and exert pressure that may crack the stone over repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
- LED lights: Remove the LED8B3 ring lights from the basalt core holes and store indoors. Disconnect the 12V transformer from power and store in a dry location.
What maintenance is required to keep the basalt looking its best?
Natural top basalt is low-maintenance by design. Key upkeep:
- Scale prevention: Use a fountain scale remover periodically (every 4–8 weeks in hard water areas) to prevent white calcium carbonate (efflorescence) buildup. Distilled water significantly reduces mineral deposits. If white scale forms, a weak acid solution or stiff brush removes it without damaging the stone.
- Water treatment: Beneficial bacteria and/or algaecide keeps basin water clear. The natural stone surface is porous and accumulates algae faster in direct sun — moderate shade slows algae growth.
- Pump pre-filter: The MP1000 has a removable pre-filter screen. Rinse monthly to prevent debris restriction.
- Basin refill: Check water level weekly in summer. A 46-gallon basin can lose several gallons per week to evaporation in hot, dry conditions. Top off with a garden hose or install the optional auto-fill kit (auto-fill spinweld fitting is standard on the FBL48 basin).
