Blue Thumb Reveals Upgraded Achelous Basin

Published on September 7, 2024

We’re excited to announce the upgrade of our 48-inch Achelous Basin. What does this mean for water-feature installers and enthusiasts? A stronger, more versatile basin that simplifies installation and offers greater flexibility in fountain placement.

Blue Thumb’s patented AquaBox basins are manufactured in house, and our 48-inch Achelous Basin is no exception. It provides a robust 95-gallon water reservoir, capable of supporting even the heaviest and most expensive fountains, all while maintaining a lightweight, manageable form.

With our new and improved design, you still get the strength and reliability you’ve come to expect, along with some exciting enhancements. The basin’s two-piece removable cover allows for easier variation in fountain placement and plumbing connections, especially for larger fountains and triple fountain sets. Plus, each cover half includes convenient pump access. 

This basin design will be released in fall 2024.
