Know before you buy
The FastFalls spillway features an innovative rear liner attachment system. This design allows you to secure the liner directly to the spillway, creating a watertight seal that prevents seepage at the most common point of failure.
Yes, the unit is designed to be buried or camouflaged. You can easily stack natural stone or mulch around the exterior to blend the spillway into your pond’s edge, leaving only the waterfall opening visible.
You should match the spillway width to your pump's capacity. Smaller models are designed for lower flow rates, while larger units can handle up to 9,000 gallons per hour; always check the specific model's maximum flow rating to ensure the water cascades smoothly rather than overflowing the sides.
The spillway is constructed from a heavy-duty, crush-proof resin designed to withstand the pressure of surrounding soil and rocks. Because it is built for permanent in-ground installation, it is highly resistant to the elements and includes a lifetime warranty.
The unit includes a bulkhead connection, which typically ranges from 1.5" to 3" depending on the model. You will need to provide the appropriate tubing and pump to complete your plumbing setup.
