I am not up on my mechanical engineering. That said, it occurs to me that a fillable resevoir that is placed high up in a fountain space would let gravity do the work. If you want something fancier I'd say have a resevoir of water that is fillable and sealable and use a pressurized air container on slow release to force the water up.
But like I said, I wouldn't be good at designing such, just thinking of a method or two.
