Installation Instructions
It is recommended to lay out the position of the Pondless ® Waterfall Vault and AquaBlox ® prior to excavation in order to determine actual excavation
dimensions. Please note an additional 6” of excavation is recommended per side of the basin to allow for: AquaBlox ® dimensions, sufficient backfill
material and compaction required during backfilling. See the diagrams below for examples of Pondless ® Waterfall storage basin configurations. Larger
storage basins can be constructed by increasing the quantity of Small AquaBlox ® and/or using the optional Pondless ® Waterfall Vault Extension in
combination with the Large AquaBlox ® . Liner and geotextile dimensions will vary according to the quantity and size of AquaBlox ® used.
The optional Pondless ® Waterfall Vault Extension (Item #49001) slides onto the top of the Pondless ® Waterfall Vault increasing the height for
deeper basins using the Large AquaBlox ® . The Extension slides on from the front of the unit towards the back.
Note: Check for presence of high water table in the excavation, which must be kept at levels a minimum of 3 feet below the bottom of the AquaBlox ®
structure at all times.
Step1: Excavate Pondless ® Waterfall Storage Basin
Excavate a recessed area for the Pondless ® Waterfall Vault. This positions the vault at the lowest point in the storage basin allowing maximum water
availability for the pump system.
