Note: This kit is designed for single spillway/spout installations. For multiple spillways, double or triple wall spouts, or combination installations, you'll need additional plumbing components (tees, valves, extra pipe) to create a manifold system. This kit works with Atlantic Flexible Hardscape Basins; for rigid basin installations, see Atlantic Basin Kits which include basin, pump, and all plumbing.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What's the difference between this plumbing kit and a complete Basin Kit?
A: The Flex Basin Plumbing Kit (FFKIT1) includes only the plumbing components—pipe, fittings, cord seal, and sealant. You'll still need to purchase the Flexible Hardscape Basin, pump, and spillway/spout separately. Atlantic Basin Kits, on the other hand, are complete all-in-one systems that include a rigid basin, pump, all plumbing, splash mat, auto fill, and accessories in one box. Use this plumbing kit when you're building a custom installation with a Flexible Hardscape Basin, or when you already have the basin and pump but need the plumbing components.
Q: Can I use this kit for multiple spillways or wall spouts?
A: No, the FFKIT1 is designed for a single spillway, spout, or Colorfall installation. For multiple spillways, double or triple wall spout installations, or combinations (like a spillway plus wall spouts), you'll need to create a manifold system using additional components like tee fittings, extra valves for flow control, and more pipe. The 9 feet of 1.5" Flex PVC and included fittings are sized for one water outlet. You can purchase additional plumbing components separately to expand the system.
Q: What is the Cord Seal Fitting used for?
A: The Cord Seal Fitting is a specialized fitting that allows you to pass your pump's electrical cord through the Flexible Hardscape Basin liner without creating a leak. When you install a submersible pump inside the basin, the power cord needs to exit the basin to reach your electrical outlet. Simply drilling a hole would create a leak point. The Cord Seal Fitting creates a watertight seal around the cord, preventing water from escaping through the cord pass-through. You install it in the basin liner, thread the cord through, and tighten—it compresses around the cord to create a waterproof seal.
