Plumbing the Spillway
WaterWall Spillways have a 1½” female threaded inlet located at the center-bottom of the unit.
Connect the plumbing using a 1½” male threaded fitting (not included) of your choice. Apply
thread sealant or silicone to the threads of the male fitting. Thread the fitting into the inlet by
hand until tight and finish off with a half turn from a wrench. Connect the plumbing line from
the pump to the Spillway. Minimum 1½” I.D tubing is required for optimum water flow. When
plumbing multiple Spillways to a single pump, run a main feed line along the back of the wall,
teeing up to the individual Spillway. If installing multiple units, it is best to install a ball valve in
each line feeding the Spillway to provide more control over the flow. When running more than
one WaterWall Spillway, the main feed line should be increased to at least 2”.
Maintenance
The Atlantic WaterWall Spillway is a one-piece, closed unit with internal baffling to diffuse
the water flow. If large debris enters the Spillway and becomes lodged, it will be difficult to
remove. For this reason, take great care to ensure that large debris in the water is filtered out
before reaching the Spillway. Atlantic WaterWall Spillways will not corrode under normal use,
however periodic cleaning may be required depending on water conditions. The brushed
stainless steel finish can be cleaned using 3M stainless steel cleaner (available at any home
center) and a soft cloth.
WaterWalls used in swimming pool installations should be rinsed regularly with fresh water
to remove accumulated chlorine deposits. See Attention section for more details.
Winterization
Atlantic WaterWall Spillways are self-draining for easy winterization of those installations where
the water may freeze. When the pump is turned off the water inside the Spillway will drain
back through the supply line. Ensure that the supply line is fully drained. Remove the pump
and store it indoors for the winter.
