How It Works
The waterfall weir installs at the top of your waterfall or stream, creating a controlled spillway for water to cascade over. The 2" lip overhang extends beyond the weir body, allowing water to fall freely and create that classic waterfall curtain effect. The 31" width provides ample capacity for impressive water flow while maintaining a natural appearance in your landscape.
Ideal Applications
Perfect for formal waterfall installations, pondless waterfall features, stream-to-pond transitions, multi-tiered waterfall systems, and any water feature requiring a professional-quality spillway. The weir creates a dramatic focal point while ensuring consistent, even water flow across the entire width.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the 2" lip overhang do?
A: The 2" lip overhang extends beyond the weir body, allowing water to fall freely and create a beautiful water curtain effect. This produces a more natural-looking waterfall compared to water simply flowing over a flat edge.
Q: How much water flow can this handle?
A: The 31" width provides generous capacity for impressive water flow. The appropriate pump size depends on your desired waterfall effect - larger pumps create more dramatic cascades, while smaller pumps produce gentler flows.
Q: Is this difficult to install?
A: The weir is designed for straightforward installation in waterfall construction. It should be properly leveled and secured at the top of your waterfall or stream. Professional installation is recommended if you're unfamiliar with waterfall construction.
Q: Can I use this for a pondless waterfall?
A: Absolutely! This weir is perfect for pondless waterfall installations, creating a dramatic spillway where water cascades into a hidden reservoir below.
Q: Do I need to support the weir from underneath?
A: Yes, the weir should be properly supported with a stable base of compacted soil, stone, or other suitable material to prevent settling and ensure the spillway remains level.
Q: Can I stack multiple weirs for a tiered waterfall?
A: Yes! Multiple weirs can be used to create multi-tiered waterfall systems with cascading levels for added visual interest and sound.
Q: What size pump do I need?
A: Pump size depends on your desired waterfall effect and the height of your waterfall. As a general guideline, plan for 100-200 GPH per inch of weir width for a nice flow. For this 31" weir, that would be approximately 3,100-6,200 GPH.
