• For inward waterfall lip installation you will need to cut two
vertical slits into the liner along the left and right side of the
opening. The flap of liner can simply fall into the inside of
the BioFalls Filter when attaching the waterfall lip.
NOTE: Ignore this step if you are installing the waterfall lip
outward and proceed to the following step.
• Temporarily install the waterfall lip and liner to the BioFalls
Filter. Using an awl or nail, poke the first hole through one
of the two top corner screws (Ex. 11).
• Remove the awl or nail while holding the waterfall lip and
liner in place, then thread one of the screws into the
filter (Ex. 12). Repeat this process for the screw on the
opposite side. When installing the waterfall lip inward, we
recommend installing a third screw at the center screw
hole along the bottom.
• Now remove the waterfall lip with the screws still
penetrating through the liner (Ex. 13). These screws will
serve as your guide when reinstalling the waterfall lip.
• Apply a thick bead of fish-safe silicone sealant (not
included) around the BioFalls Filter opening. The bead
should follow the path of the threaded inserts (Ex. 14).
• Reattach the waterfall lip using the pre-installed screws as
your guide.
• Thread the top two corner
screws and lower center
screw into place to secure
the lip to the filter (Ex. 15).
We recommend threading
the lower center screw first
when installing the waterfall
lip in the inward direction.
• Poke the remaining screw
holes with the awl or nail and thread in the remaining
screws.
• For outward lip installation, the liner will need to be
trimmed.
• Let dry for at least one hour before introducing water.

INSTALLING THE FILTER
PADS AND MEDIA BAGS
• The filter mats provided
with the Signature Series
BioFalls Filter are high sur-
face area (HSA) mats
containing 50% more sur-
face area than normal filter
mats, allowing a greater
surface area for beneficial
bacteria to colonize and clean the water (Ex. 16).
• Set the filter mats on top of the filter support rack.
• A biological filter media net is included to hold biological
filter media (not included) which will help keep pond water
clean and healthy (Ex. 16).
• Fill the filter media net with biological filter media. For best
results, use Aquascape BioBalls Biological Filter Media -
100 count (#98464).
NOTE: Recommended BioBalls quantities: 2500 series -
200 BioBalls, 6000 series - 400 BioBalls.
Ex. 12
• In higher flow applications with lightweight biological filter
media, use a rock or cobble to anchor the media in place
if needed.
NOTE: Overfilling media bags will prevent them from
spreading out over the filter mats and will cause
interference with the rock rack.
STEP 5
BUILD THE WATERFALL
• Place two larger boulders on either side of the waterfall to
"frame" the waterfall. The water will be running between
the two larger boulders (Ex. 17).
• You can now begin to stack rocks between the two larger
Ex. 14
boulders (Ex. 17). These are the rocks that the water will
be running over, so take your time and be creative. Start
with the larger rocks on the bottom and work your way up
to the smaller ones on top.
• Small stones and gravel can be used to fill the gaps
between the larger waterfall stones (Ex. 17).
