STEP 6

PD/PL

Install underlayment and liner

• Remove any sharp objects from

the excavated hole that may dam-

age the liner.

• Unfold the underlayment fabric

and place it into your excavated

MicroPondless

/MicroPond

basin. Starting from the bottom,

remove the slack from the under-

layment, making sure it conforms

into all of the elevations.

• Now place the EPDM fish-safe

liner on top of the underlayment.

• The installation process is the

same as the underlayment,

starting at the bottom and

contouring the liner up and

out of the MicroPondless

MicroPond

basin. (See fig. 16)

STEP 7

Installing the MicroSkim

Set up and level

the MicroSkim

• You've already roughed out a hole

approximately 21"(l) x 18" (w) x

18" (h) deep during the excavation

phase. Use a 2' bubble level in

order to make sure your MicroSkim

is properly set into position. Your

MicroSkim

should be level from

side to side and front to back.

• Install the bulkhead fitting into the

overflow hole. Refer if needed back

to the steps under the "Hookup and

Level MicroFalls

" section for details

on installing the bulkhead fitting.

• Try to get the large folds out, but

the main goal is to make sure

that it's lying flat and going into

all corners. Don't try to get it

perfect—you will hide the liner

with rocks and gravel later.

• Make sure the liner is high enough

around the edges of the Micro-

Pondless

/MicroPond

basin.

This should not be a problem if

you measured out the pond and

excavated it correctly. Problems can

be fixed by readjusting the liner into

the excavation, backfilling (making

the MicroPondless

/ MicroPond

basin smaller) in areas where there

is not enough liner, or simply buying

a larger liner.

• Make sure skimmer is set so the

desired water level in the pond is

approximately ¾" below the top of

skimmer opening. (See fig. 18)

Attaching the

• Position the liner against the

MicroSkim

opening, making sure

there is slack below the opening.

This will help reduce tension on the

faceplate when placing boulders in

front of the unit.

• Mark the outer perimeter of the

MicroSkim

opening on the liner,

then mark a second box 1.5" inside

of it. This insures that you don't

cut too much of the liner, which

would result in a possible leak.

(See fig. 19)

• The hole located in the back of the

MicroSkim

is for the overflow. The

overflow will help maintain the

maximum water level in the pond

after rainfall, ensuring that your

skimmer works properly and water
