What type of Back Flow Preventer is needed for a low pressure fountain
(OP)
Not sure whether to use a pressure vacuum breaker or a reduced pressure assembly. I have a max pressure of 80psi and a 1" cold water pipe.

If no potential for back flow then a pressure vacuum breaker will work. Use one similar to what is used for landscape irrigation systems.
