Prepare a proper subsurface grade to allow for a minimum 4” concrete slab with
a minimum slope of 1/4” per foot to the centralized drain(s). All plumbing
should be a minimum of 6” below subsurface grade or as per the local code re-
quirements. We recommend using steel mesh or rebar for concrete reinforce-
ment. Our design team can review your splash pad design to determine control
joints and/or reinforcement requirements. Depending on your area, your project
may have additional concrete requirements. Please check with a professional to
be sure you meet the minimum stan-
dards for a quality concrete slab.
If using sleeves, be sure they are in
place for all stubbed up supply lines.
NOTE:
Some Rain Deck
products including all above ground features require additional
preparation and footings that need to be complete before the concrete pour. See “Above
Ground Water Feature Installations” if this applies to you.
