Know before you buy
While this kit is specifically engineered for seamless integration with Atlantic Water Gardens formal spillways, it can technically be adapted for other brands. However, for the best fit and easiest installation, we recommend pairing it with an Atlantic 12", 24", or 36" spillway.
The autofill system automatically maintains the water level in your basin, which is essential for preventing the pump from running dry due to evaporation or splashing. It saves you the manual labor of checking and topping off the water level regularly.
No, the kit is designed for straightforward installation and can be placed above or below ground without professional help. Its durable construction allows it to stand alone, though you may want to surround it with decorative stone or landscaping to blend it into your garden.
The basin features a built-in prefilter chamber that catches debris before it reaches the pump, which significantly reduces maintenance. You should periodically check this chamber and clear out any accumulated leaves or sediment to ensure the pump continues to operate at peak efficiency.
Yes, the TidalWave pump is designed for continuous, energy-efficient operation. It is fully submersible and built to handle the demands of a water feature running 24/7.
The basin size should be selected based on the width of your spillway and the desired water volume. Larger basins hold more water, which helps stabilize water chemistry and reduces the frequency of maintenance, so choose the largest size that fits your available space.
