STEP 5
ADD ROCK AND GRAVEL
NOTE: You can expect to use several tons of stone and
gravel for your water feature. Below are some helpful
formulas for choosing the stone and gravel.
Stone Calculation for the Pond
Length x Width / 65 = Tons of boulders
Gravel Used in the Pond
Pond Gravel = 30% total tons of pond boulders
• Start from the bottom and set the largest character
boulders first against the vertical walls, then stack the
smaller boulders on top (Ex. 17).
• Be careful when placing any large boulders so you don't
damage the liner.
• The opening on the front of the skimmer can be hidden
by placing boulders on either side and bridging a stone or
piece of driftwood across, creating a cave effect.
NOTE: Make sure the boulders do not block the water
flow into the skimmer.
• Cover all remaining flat surfaces inside the pond with a
couple inches of decorative gravel (Ex. 18). This will help
lock the boulders in place, as well as cover the remaining
liner, protecting it from ultraviolet rays, and giving bacteria
a place to colonize.

WASH ROCKS AND GRAVEL
• Using a garden hose, wash the rock and gravel down in
order to remove the dust and dirt. Use the pump provided
with the kit attached to a scrap section of kink-free pipe.
The pump can temporarily be placed in the lowest point
of the pond and the dirty water discharged to a drainage
area in the yard.
STEP 6
COMPLETE THE SKIMMER INSTALLATION
• The skimmer has two holes on either side of the unit for
the plumbing to travel to the BioFalls
plumbing hole that is most convenient. The pipe simply
passes through the opening on either side of the skimmer
(Ex. 19).
• The pump's electrical cord can be run through either hole
provided in the side of the skimmer (Ex. 20).
• Insert the barbed multi-hose adapter included with the
pump onto the end of the pipe and tighten down hose
clamp. Thread the end of the pipe onto the rotational ball
fitting attached to the pump and lower into the skimmer
(Ex. 21).

STEP 7
OPTIONAL OVERFLOW INSTALLATION
• Attach and trench a
section of kink-free pipe
into place (3' minimum).
Create a drainage area
at the end of the pipe

by excavating a small
pit, roughly 16" in
