Sealing around the tubing keeps all the water bubbling out the top of the column and keeps water from freezing and expanding inside the column, potentially damaging the column in a cold snap. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then run the tubing back along the outside channel to the 3-Way Diverter. Set the column upright so that the tubing sits in the plumbing chase. Cut the tubing and slip it on the barbed outlet of the outside valve. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Repeat for the other two columns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When all three Columns are connected, open all three valves on the 3-Way Diverter, fill the basin and plug in the pump. Adjust the valves as needed to balance the flow starting with the shortest column, then the middle, finally the tallest. Remove the valve handles and store, then cover the basin with the \u00be\u201d or larger gravel of your choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"790\" height=\"441\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.atlantic-oase.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Adjusting-the-Flow-2-3-Piece-Basalt-Column-Kit.png?resize=790%2C441&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"3 basalt rock column fountains sitting on top of a fountain basin with water coming out of the top of the fountains.

To light Atlantic&#8217;s Basalt Columns from the inside, use Atlantic&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.atlantic-oase.com\/products\/product\/390\">Fountain Lights<\/a>. To light from the outside, use Atlantic&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.atlantic-oase.com\/products\/categories\/lighting\/spotlights\">Spotlights<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.atlantic-oase.com\/products\/product\/388\">Ring Light<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To make lighting the plume of water at the top of the column from the inside easier, Atlantic takes two extra steps that others don\u2019t. First, Atlantic bores the entire column to 1 3\/8&#8243; in diameter, large enough to accommodate both the tubing and the light cord. Then, Atlantic opens the bore at the top of the column to a full 2&#8243; in diameter, creating a pocket 5&#8243; deep, where the water comes out. This larger pocket helps to buffer the jet of water shooting up from the stone and also accommodates 2&#8243; diameter fountain lights. These fountain lights cannot be directly seen in the pocket. This gives the effect of a liquid torch at the top of the stone at night. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"790\" height=\"441\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.atlantic-oase.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/1-38th-bore-3-Piece-Basalt-Column-Kit.png?resize=790%2C441&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Basalt rock column laying on its side next to a fountain basin with an arrow drawn pointing to the bored hole in the center of the column.
