Pondless Waterfalls
Pondless waterfalls and streams require little or no open pond water meaning they are safer for children and animals.
The water flows from one end to the other where a false bottom conceals a water reservoir. We generally include our ecosystem filtration which rarely needs a clean in the form of a simple hose-off. Be aware that others don't put filtration in these systems, but they very much benefit from filtration.
A hidden chamber sits below the gravel containing a pump which recirculates the water back to the top of the feature. We recommend the reservoir allows for a shallow puddling water which is more attractive than bare gravel.
The reservoir containing the pump and most of the water in the feature is below the gravel, we call this effect a false bottom. The larger the reservoir, the cleaner the water and the less it may need a top-up.
Key features:
- A balance of contemporary and natural
- Entirely unique and personalized for you, we can create them from natural rocks or metals like steel for a more contemporary aesthetic.
- Bespoke in-built filtration for crystal-clear water, no complex or moving parts other than the pump.
- Low maintenance.
- Low running costs.
- No complicated plumbing required.
- Wildlife friendly – pumps are isolated in a submerged chamber.
- Can include a permanent pool at the base.
