Vertex Vertical FunnelJet Pond Fountain
Throw a Wide Funnel-Shaped Display from Deep Water with the Vertex Vertical FunnelJet
The Vertex Vertical FunnelJet Fountain is the deep-water version of Vertex's wide funnel-shaped display. It throws the same low, broad pattern as the standard FunnelJet - a dramatic funnel with the largest diameter relative to height in the Vertex line - but in a vertical configuration designed for ponds that stay deep year-round. All three motor sizes run from a uniform 6.5 ft minimum depth, which means you can spec the right HP based on the visual you want without worrying about depth changes from one motor to the next.
Three motor sizes cover residential through small commercial water bodies: 2 HP, 3 HP, and 5 HP. Spray heights are intentionally low at 6 to 8 ft, but the funnel spreads 20 to 35 ft wide across the surface - the right pick when you want a fountain that fills a deep pond with a wide, photogenic ring of water without the tall vertical jet most commercial fountains throw. Every unit ships on a sealed stainless steel submersible turbine pump, a UL-listed control panel, and the rotocast polypropylene float used across the Vertex commercial line.
Pick 2, 3, or 5 HP. Every motor size is available in 230V single-phase or three-phase. 208V or 460V three-phase configurations are available on request. Optional LED light kits use 3 fixtures uniformly across all motor sizes per the 2026 Vertex catalog, with submersible power cord lengths sold at order time. Free shipping on every Vertical FunnelJet.
The Vertex Vertical FunnelJet is a deep-water floating fountain with a wide low funnel pattern. Three motor sizes from 2 HP to 5 HP. Heights 6-8 ft, diameters 20-35 ft. Uniform 6.5 ft min depth across the line.

Requirements & What to Know Before You Buy
- Pond Depth: 6.5 ft minimum on every motor size. If your pond is shallower, look at the standard FunnelJet, which runs in 3 to 6 ft depending on motor.
- Pond Size: the funnel spreads 20 to 35 ft wide depending on motor size. Confirm at least 15 to 20 ft of clearance to any shoreline on each side of the fountain.
- Voltage and Phase Selection: every motor size is available in 230V single-phase or three-phase. 208V and 460V three-phase configurations are available on request.
- Dedicated Circuit: the included control panel needs a properly sized dedicated circuit. Confirm with a licensed electrician before install.
- Mooring: commercial fountains need anchoring. You supply anchors or weights sized to the float and water body.
- Cable Run: standard cord lengths are available; longer runs are an order-time option.
- Winterization: Vertex fountains must be removed from water before freezing conditions.
- Lighting: the suggested LED kit is 3 lights for every motor size. Add at order time so the harness ships with the float.
- Sizing Help: Call (470) 354-1969 with your pond surface area and depth and we will recommend the right motor size.
