Two Package Configurations to Match Your Needs
Select the option that best suits your water clarity goals and pond conditions:
1,050 Gallon Pond Package (PP1050)
The complete foundation package for a thriving pond ecosystem. At its core is the F070 16" Livingponds® Waterfall Filter, delivering powerful bio-mechanical filtration through a compact, waterfall-ready design. Paired with the Compact Skimmer featuring an 8" weir, this dual-filtration approach captures surface debris while cultivating beneficial bacteria for long-term water quality.
The 2,050 GPH Water Master Solids Pump provides reliable circulation and debris handling, while the 15' x 15' LifeGuard 45-mil pond liner and UnderGuard geotextile underlayment create a durable, puncture-resistant foundation for your water feature. An Ignite LED Rock Light adds enchanting nighttime illumination, and 25 feet of 1.5" kink-free hose ensures flexible, reliable plumbing.
You'll also receive the WMS Compact Pro Pump Discharge Kit for professional-grade connections, 16oz of Rescue Beneficial Bacteria to jump-start your biological filtration, plus all necessary fittings including brushings, barbs, hose clamps, PVC glue, and Teflon tape. The package includes a comprehensive installation guide and "How to Build a Living Pond" DVD to guide you through every step.
1,050 Gallon Pond Package with 28-Watt High Output UV (PP1050UV)
This enhanced configuration includes everything in the standard package, plus a powerful 28-watt high-output UV clarifier for superior algae control and exceptional water clarity. The UV system works alongside your mechanical and biological filtration to eliminate single-celled algae that cause green water, ensuring crystal-clear results even in challenging conditions.
You'll receive the same premium components—F070 16" Livingponds® Waterfall Filter, Compact Skimmer with 8" weir, 2,050 GPH Water Master Solids Pump, 15' x 15' liner system, LED lighting, kink-free hose, discharge kit, beneficial bacteria, all fittings and installation materials—with the added advantage of UV sterilization for the clearest, most pristine water possible.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between the two package options?
The primary difference is UV clarification. The PP1050 includes complete filtration, circulation, and all installation materials. The PP1050UV adds a 28-watt high-output UV clarifier, which is extremely effective at eliminating green water caused by suspended algae. If you want the clearest possible water or your pond receives significant sunlight, the UV package is the better choice.
What size pond can I build with this kit?
This package is designed for ponds up to 1,050 gallons. The 15' x 15' liner provides flexibility in pond shape and depth. Your actual pond capacity will depend on your design—deeper ponds will have less surface area, while shallower designs can spread wider within the liner dimensions.
Is UV clarification necessary?
While not essential for a healthy pond, UV clarification is highly recommended for crystal-clear water. UV is particularly beneficial for ponds in sunny locations, ponds with fish (which add nutrients that feed algae), or if you've experienced green water issues before. The biological and mechanical filtration will maintain water quality, but UV provides exceptional clarity.
Can I keep fish in this pond?
Absolutely! This package provides excellent filtration and circulation for fish. The combination of skimmer, waterfall filter, and beneficial bacteria creates a healthy environment for goldfish or koi. For fish ponds, we strongly recommend the UV package to maintain optimal water clarity.
How difficult is installation?
This package is designed for DIY installation by pond enthusiasts with basic handyman skills. The included installation guide and "How to Build a Living Pond" DVD provide step-by-step instructions. Most builders complete installation over a weekend. Excavation is typically the most labor-intensive part—the equipment setup and plumbing are straightforward.
What's included in the WMS Compact Pro Pump Discharge Kit?
The discharge kit includes specialized fittings and components designed to connect your Water Master Solids Pump to the plumbing system efficiently, ensuring optimal flow and easy maintenance access.
How often will I need to maintain the system?
Maintenance is minimal and straightforward. During active seasons, expect to clean the skimmer basket weekly (takes just a minute or two) and rinse the filter media every 2-4 weeks depending on debris load. The system is designed for quick, easy maintenance that won't consume your weekends.
Can I expand or upgrade this system later?
Yes! Savio's modular design philosophy means you can add components as your needs evolve. You can incorporate additional filtration, upgrade to larger pumps, add waterfalls or streams, or integrate other Savio products seamlessly.
What if my pond is slightly larger than 1,050 gallons?
The components in this package can handle slightly larger volumes, though filtration efficiency may decrease. For ponds significantly over 1,050 gallons, consider the 1,500 gallon package for optimal performance and water quality.
