The Red Cedar BarrelsEach of the cedar barrels comes with a built-in plastic liner to hold the water and resist mildew and rot.
Interesting Tidbit: The insides of these barrels were charred to improve the flavor of the whiskey.
The Pump SystemThe water flows from an antique-looking decorative cast iron hand pump into the barrel basin. Also included is a 110 volt AC electric pump that can be plugged into an outlet to produce a flow of water that is pleasing to both the eye and the ear.
The electric pump sits on the bottom of the bottom barrel, feeding water through a hose that goes through the side of the bottom barrel, underneath the top barrel, through an "L" joint, then through the bottom of the top barrel and into the decorative iron pump at the top. The pump is threaded to 1 1/4 inch pipe and can draw water from shallow wells up to 20 feet deep. The water then flows out of the decorative cast iron pump into the top cedar barrel, out of a lip on the rim of the top barrel, and down into the bottom pump where the cycle is continuously repeated.
The pond pumps about 100 gallons per hour.
Rust-Resistant Metal StandThe stand is optional and is not included in the base price.
