How It Works
The Compact Waterfall Well creates a protective chamber around your pump, preventing rocks, gravel, and other heavy materials from crushing or damaging it while still allowing water to flow freely to the pump intake. The compact size makes it ideal for smaller pondless waterfall basins where space is limited.
Ideal Applications
Perfect for smaller pondless waterfall installations, vanishing waterfall features in compact spaces, rain harvesting systems, irrigation pump stations, drainage applications, and lift-pump installations. The Compact Waterfall Well provides essential pump protection in any application where your pump needs to be buried beneath rock or gravel in a limited space.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the Savio Compact Waterfall Well used for?
A: The Compact Waterfall Well is a protective pump vault designed to house and protect your pump in pondless waterfall systems, irrigation setups, rain collection systems, drainage applications, and lift-pump installations. It prevents your pump from being crushed by rocks and gravel while allowing water to flow freely.
Q: How is this different from the Standard Waterfall Well?
A: The Compact Waterfall Well has a smaller footprint, making it ideal for smaller pondless waterfall installations where space is limited. Both models handle up to 15,000 GPH, but the compact version is designed for tighter installation areas.
Q: How much flow can this handle?
A: The Compact Waterfall Well can handle flow rates up to 15,000 gallons per hour, making it suitable for most residential pondless waterfall applications.
Q: Is it difficult to install?
A: No! The snap-fit enclosure design makes assembly quick and easy with no tools required. The housing has no moving parts, which simplifies installation and reduces potential failure points.
Q: Can I use this for applications other than waterfalls?
A: Absolutely! While it's ideal for pondless waterfalls, the Compact Waterfall Well is also perfect for irrigation systems, rain collection setups, drainage applications, and lift-pump installations—anywhere you need to protect a submerged pump in a compact space.
Q: Will this work with any pump?
