STEP 3
MARK OUT THE AREA
• Using a can of brightly colored spray paint, trace around
the basin to outline the area that is to be excavated
(Figure 3).
• Next, mark out the channel for the flex PVC pipe, leading
from the pre-drilled bulkhead port to the opposite corner
of the basin where the waterfall will begin
(Figure 2).
STEP 4
EXCAVATE THE BASIN AND PLUMBING LINE
• Using the traced area as a
guide, dig the hole for the
AquaBasin
®
roughly to 17"
(43 cm) deep (Figure 4). The
additional depth will allow
the basin to sit flush with
the ground once gravel and
rocks are added. Use the
excess soil to create elevation for the waterfall or the berm
around the waterfall.
• Continue by excavating the
area marked for the pipe. In
the area closest to the pre-
drilled bulkhead port, dig the
trench to approximately 7" (18
cm) deep (Figure 5). This will
allow sufficient space for the
pipe and plumbing.
• The remainder of the trench only needs to be dug deep
enough to provide enough space for the pipe to travel
beneath the soil to the Waterfall Spillway.
Use Figure 2 as a reference for pipe placement.
