How to install a waterfall in 2 hours & 20 minutes steps 7-14
What happens here
Begin by preparing the pump, which is an asynchronous mag-drive pump included in the kit. Attach a threaded fitting to the pump, which will connect to the waterfall spillway. This setup is performed inside the pre-dug basin, allowing for easy access before subsequent layers are added. The overall design principles for a natural-looking waterfall are also discussed, emphasizing how water naturally carves through the landscape, exposing stones. Typically, larger boulders are placed on the perimeter, and smaller ones are used in the middle to create cascading effects. This initial pump setup enables the team to work outwards from the reservoir, simplifying later stages of the construction.
Goal: Prepare the pump and reservoir for the waterfall flow
