PB2354 – Blue Thumb
Small Pump Canyon Extension
Use the Pump Canyon Extension to increase water capacity by creating a larger, deeper reservoir while maintaining a smaller footprint.
After excavating the basin and installing the Basin Matrix and liner, the Pump and Check Valve Assembly is installed inside the Pump Canyon®. The pump pushes water through PVC flex hose up to the Cascade Box, where water flows back into the lined basin and continuously recirculates.
Step 1. Lay out the Basin Matrix and Pump Canyon configuration. Outline the area with spray paint and excavate to the required size and depth.
Step 2. Install the underliner first, followed by the rubber liner. Place the Pump Canyon® and Matrix Boxes on top of the liner and backfill outside the basin.
Step 3. Extend the liner up the incline and position the Cascade Box on a leveled area at the top.
Step 4. Place the pump inside the Pump Canyon® and connect plumbing from the pump to the Cascade Box.
Step 5. Cover the Matrix and Pump Canyon® with decorative stone. Stack rocks to form the waterfall and stream, fill with water, and plug in the pump to start operation.
Pond-less waterfalls are an ideal solution for steep slopes or areas where plants cannot thrive and mulch washes away during rain. This system transforms challenging terrain into an attractive, low-maintenance water feature.
