Our first advice is, if possible, to visit a real waterfall, or at least to trace the images of real waterfalls. You must have a realistic picture of how water flowing over rocks. The design of your waterfall depends on the topographical features of the place you chose the type of pump and the length of the tube, you will use the distance from which water falls and the shape of the pond. It is good to maintain the proportions of the entire facility. Often make mistakes, to be transported large quantities of earth to build one fountain, tall, more than a meter. The effect is that it gets so dramatic appearance that more resembles a volcano that is not in place. Waterfall, about 60 cm high, would cause a very satisfactory effect both visually and audible. If your home waterfall building at the level of the building, with a normal size swimming pool, the amount of dust, you need to filter and cluster around the ridge to build the fountain is just as much and the dust that had to dig a pond, which is quite convenient. If you later decide to enlarge the waterfall, you could add more soil or aggregating large blocks stone and other natural-looking elements. If you are working on sloping terrain, you can place the filter over the pond and thereby create a true cascade of tiny waterfalls. For better visual effect, you could reduce the amount of water so it will run though more slowly, but waterfall will be broader.
And if you build a waterfall a few steps from the pond, you will create the impression of a faster flow of water. It is advisable to use a rubber mat in the pond, which can be supplied just over its edge to return to water splashing back. Once you have finished digging for rocks, and once you are sure that the terrain is flat, arrange the stones on each other. Do not hurry, try different combinations, and observed how water runs down on them. When you think The Fountain is finally built, use the black foam to form the relief, so that water runs down on the stones, rather than under them.
Although the construction of a fountain requires a lot of imagination and patience, this occupation provides pleasure. If you take some time to experiment, you could get a better effect on the outcome. So do it! Soon your home will appreciate at a waterfall for relaxing and peaceful place in your garden.
