The Problem with Traditional Pondless Waterfall Kits
Most pondless waterfall kits on the market have no water filter and rely on rock and gravel basin reservoirs to filter debris. While this method captures debris, it creates a major issue:
- Basin excavations 2-3 times larger than they need to be
- Debris gets trapped deep in the rock and gravel basin
- Cleaning is extremely difficult (or impossible)
- Organic buildup leads to rotting debris and algae growth
- Requires annual draining and pressure washing
- Spillways are not filters of any kind
- No other design options - gravel basin must always be at the base of the last waterfall
Bottom line: Traditional pondless waterfall systems are not designed to be easily cleaned.
The HydroPure™ Filtered Pondless System Advantage: EASY-to-CLEAN Technology
HydroPure™ Filtered Pondless Systems are built differently.
Our HydroPure™ EASY-to-CLEAN Pondless Waterfall Kits eliminate the need for gravel filtration and instead use advanced, patent-protected components:
✔ HydroSieve™ Pre-Filter
Captures debris before it enters the system — easy to routinely remove and rinse clean.
✔ Hydro Vortex™ Waterfall Filter
The patented biological filter captures fine particulates and dissolved organics and rinses clean with a patented backwash system for fast routine rinsing that preserves beneficial bacteria.
✔ HydroChamber™ System
An all-in-one pump vault and water storage tank that features:
- Pre-plumbed with two dual-female threaded outlet ports for up to two pumps (submersible and/or external pumps)
- Is pre-plumbed for an automatic water fill valve
- Replaces a slotted pump vault, 2 matrix blocks, rubber liner, and underlayment
- Connects to the HydroSieve™ pre-filter by standard 4" pipe
- Can be installed away from the waterfall and stream for flexible designs
