• The filter is now ready for

the kink-free pipe and hose

clamp to be slipped onto the

barb fitting. Have someone

hold the BioFalls in place

in order to prevent it from

shifting out of level. In some

instances the tubing/hose

may be tight and difficult to use with hose fitting barbs. If

this is the case, we recommend heating the hose with the

use of a hair dryer or simply dipping the hose for a few

seconds in very hot water. Lubrication can also be used;

we recommend silicone grease or vegetable oil. Once

installed, the hose clamp can be tightened to secure the

pipe on the fitting (Ex. 5).

• Double check to make sure the BioFalls is still level after

installing the plumbing (Ex. 6).

• All of the soil removed from the excavation can be spread

and compacted around the BioFalls, creating a berm. The

filter should be completely surrounded by soil by the end

of the project. Be sure to verify that the BioFalls remains

level throughout the process.

NOTE: If installing into an existing pond. You may need to

bring in extra dirt to backfill and create a berm around the

BioFalls

STEP 3

ATTACH LINER TO THE BIOFALLS

WARNING: Power tools are not recommended

for installing the screws and may strip the nut

inserts.

• Prior to installing the waterfall lip, make sure the face of

the filter and liner is clean and free of dust and debris.

• Make sure there is at least 2 feet of liner on either side of

the BioFalls.

• Have someone hold the liner against the BioFalls while you

line up the waterfall lip over the liner. Make sure there are

no wrinkles and the liner comes up above the sides of the

BioFalls. Be sure that you have a few inches of slack liner

along the front base of your BioFalls. This will help reduce

tension on the waterfall lip

when placing boulders in

front of the unit (Ex. 7).

• Temporarily install the

waterfall lip and liner to

the BioFalls using the two

Ex. 5

outermost screws. Using

an awl or nail, poke the first

hole in the liner all the way

through to the inside of

the BioFalls (Ex. 7 & 8). Be

careful not to damage the

threads on the nut inserts

when punching the holes

with the awl. Remove the

awl or nail while holding waterfall lip and liner in place and

begin threading one of the screws into the filter (Ex. 8).

• Repeat this process for the other screw.

• Remove the waterfall lip from the BioFalls, keeping the

screws installed through the waterfall lip and liner.

• Place a thick bead of silicone

(not included) across the

insert nuts on the front of the

BioFalls (Ex. 9). Pre-installing

the two screws in the earlier

Ex. 6

steps will make it easy to line

up the waterfall lip after the

silicone is applied and will

keep the silicone in as thick

of a bead as possible

(Ex. 10).

• Reattach the waterfall lip

and liner using the two

pre-installed screws (Ex. 11).

• Using an awl or nail, poke

the remaining holes in the

waterfall lip and install the

rest of the screws.

• Remove extra liner, using

the waterfall lip as a guide.

Install the rest of the screws

(Ex. 12).

• Let dry for at least one hour before introducing water.
