WATERFALLS

One of the first problems you encounter when setting a pond in the ground is, what to do with all the soil you have removed. The obvious answer is to build a rockery to one side, and what better place to locate a waterfall. Watercourse units are ready-made cascades, streams and header pools that can be used individually or linked to form a waterfall system. Sections can be combined in any desired sequence although you would normally start with a larger section or header pool at the top to provide an upper reservoir to receive the water from the pump.

We offer a large variety of shapes in different materials that vary in weight, colour and texture.

Installation
The maximum acceptable water flow down a waterfall is twice the volume of the pond per hour- waterfalls can be much smaller than this according to your preference. If you are using more than one watercourse always begin nearest the pond and work uphill from there. Watercourse units with interlocking lips are the easiest to install as there is little chance of water being lost through splash or run-back. Non interlocking cascades should be installed with each section resting directly onto the one below with a sufficient overlap to produce a clear fall of water. Test each section with a hose to check that it is level and no water is being lost before fixing permanently in place. If you cannot be sure that your watercourse is 100% free from water loss, you should build the whole structure on a piece of pond liner which would drain back into the pond.

All of the items listed below are available from our showroom.

Glass reinforced concrete waterfalls - virtually impossible to tell from natural slate. These units are designed to cope with a water flow of between 1000 to 3000 gph. The RS23 is not a cascade but a cover rock that locates on top of the RS22. Alternatively, you can have a double cascade using the RS21 to feed into the RS22.
