Outdoor Waterfalls & StreamsBerkey Waterfall & Stream Kits provide the installer all of the hardware for building an outdoor waterfall and / or stream with true on-off capability. When the system is turned on, the outdoor water feature provides a beautiful visual and audible accent to the landscape. When unattended (e.g. night time, vacation) the system can be shut-off, conserving electricity, limiting evaporation and eliminating string algae growth. |

A Simple Waterfall
A simple waterfall system of two design elements, the waterfall itself and the pooling finish. |
|
Waterfall Design Element The Filtrific® Waterfall Starter is essential in providing the waterfall with a natural "fanned" look and is sturdy to allow for complete disguise under heavy rocks or natural objects. |
|
|
|
Pooling Finish Design Element The second design element is the pooling finish. The pooling finish is a small, shallow pool which acts as a landing area for the waterfall or stream. In nature waterfalls always fall into a pooling area before dispersing. The pooling finish helps to create a natural look for the waterfall or stream and is made possible by the patented Filtrific Fixed Skimmer. Learn More about the pooling finish

|
Did You Know? The Vanishing Finish Pool is a feature only available to systems installed with the patented Filtrific® Filter Tank Reservoir and Fixed Skimmer. With other systems the water must disappear into a bed of rocks which produces a very un-natural effect. |
|
Waterfall and Stream Design Elements A waterfall and stream system incorporates both a waterfall as shown above and a stream into one water feature. A pooling or wet finish is most commonly incorporated into this type of system as well. |

Don’t Want a Pooling Finish? If the system design calls for a non-pooling finish, the Filtrific system can also accommodate a rock finish, a wet finish, and a wide variety of unique architectural finishes as well.
