 Installation Instructions
Read all instructions prior to beginning installation. Make sure that you have a soft surface to lay the outer face of the waterfall onto to prevent scratching. A blanket or section of carpet will do. Letters in the installation picture relate to lettered instructions below:
A) The water outlet fitting that is already installed at the top of your waterfall is a Hydro-Air brand high volume unit with a 1 1/2" slip fit. From the underside of the waterfall clean the lower opening of the fitting with a small amount of acetone to prepare for installation of the flex pipe (B). Be careful to not allow acetone to run onto the top surface of the waterfall. If this happens, do not wipe dry; allow to air dry.
B) Use 1 1/2" ID schedule 40 flexible PVC spa hose to adhere into the slip fitting (A). Make sure to use fresh PVC pipe primer and adhesive (follow container's instructions). The length of hose should be long enough to naturally curve in a relaxed state to where the pump will be placed. The large waterfall uses approximately 5 feet, the medium uses approximately 4 feet, the small size uses approximately 3 feet.
C) Select an appropriately sized PVC reducer bushing to adapt the flexible hose (B) to the outlet of your pump (D). Adhere reducer bushing to flex pipe (B). Attach reducer bushing to pump after remaining pieces are prepared.
D) Use a non-submersible pump. Hook up power according the the manufacturer's instructions. For the large or small waterfall use a pump that flows up to 30 gallons per minute (gpm). The medium waterfall may produce a very small amount of splash at its sides at 30 gpm, so 20 gpm is recommended. Secure the pump to the deck after determining best location.
E) Attach a short section of PVC rigid pipe to the inlet of the pump. A reducer bushing or hose clamp may be required. The section should be long enough to go from the pump location to about two inches overhanging the pool edge.
F) Select an appropriately sized PVC 90 degree elbow to direct the inlet pipe (E) toward the pool water. Adhere with PVC primer and adhesive.
G) Use a section of PVC pipe long enough to extend into the water behind the section of rock that protrudes into the water. This pipe can be located anywhere the rock protrudes below the water level. Adhere into elbow (F).
Make sure all connections are secure, mount the waterfall to the pool deck using molded-in bolt flanges, and enjoy!
