What customers say
Customers consistently praise the exceptional quality and robust design of the Savio components, noting the durability of the filter falls and skimmer.

The resulting aesthetic appeal and low maintenance requirements once installed strongly justify the investment, making reliability a major selling point.
Know before you buy
A pond-free system recirculates water from a hidden underground reservoir rather than a traditional open pond. This design eliminates the need for pond maintenance like algae control or fish care, while still providing the sound and visual appeal of a waterfall.
The kit includes the essential mechanical components: the EPDM liner, underlayment, FilterWeir, Water Master Clear pump, kink-free tubing, and an Ignite puck light. You will need to source your own decorative rocks, boulders, and gravel to complete the aesthetic portion of the build.
The system is designed for straightforward installation and includes a comprehensive guide to assist you. While it requires digging and heavy lifting to place the rocks, the all-in-one nature of the kit removes the guesswork of matching compatible pumps and filters.
Yes, the Water Master Clear pump is a submersible, electric-corded unit engineered for continuous, high-efficiency operation. It is designed to handle the demands of a recirculating water feature reliably.
The stream length options—8, 13, or 18 feet—determine the total distance the water will travel from the spillway to the reservoir. Choose the length that best fits your available landscape space, keeping in mind that longer streams may require more decorative stone to cover the liner effectively.
Maintenance is minimal compared to a traditional pond. You will primarily need to periodically clear debris from the filter, ensure the pump intake remains free of obstructions, and top off the reservoir occasionally to account for water lost to evaporation or splashing.
