There is no tap, continuous flow, which is best from a hygienic and temperature aspect but wasting some water of course. I have looked at the drinking fountain article in en.wikipedia and from 14 examples, only 4 have an upward flow, so I would not expect this to be a universal requirement, although I can imagine in some areas all drinking fountains might work like this. In Rome they are very rare, have seen only those in the sapienza university, while the hundreds of others in the city almost always provide the hole so you can redirect the flow (but it is not generally the case in other places nearby) > Is it a fountain?

I’ve mapped it with fountain=block, for me it is a modern fountain, with a reference to the historic type (type of tube) but mimicking the normal stone blocks around. By shape it is less fountain than the Bolsena example, and the absence of a water tap doesn’t offer this kind of “side tracking”, so I thought it could be interesting mentioning it.
