Wet Well - On one side of the
pond across from the waterfall,
we build a wet well area which
houses the pump. The pump is in the pond
in a snorkel vault, vertically installed. This gives easy access to the pump to have
cleaning ability. A rock wall is built a few feet in front of the snorkel vault. Gravel is
filled in between the rock wall and the snorkel vault. The pump in the snorkel, pulls
the water through the rock andgravel in the wet well from all angles, forming a
huge filter area. The water pumps through the wet well and up to a bio falls filter
or a reverse wetland bog area,which gives even more filtration. The water cascades
down the waterfall and intothe pond. Wet wells are very low maintenance and get
cleaned out only once a year in our annual Spring Startup service. We do not install
skimmer boxes. Wet wells have very low maintenance compared to a pond skimmer,
which needs weekly to monthly maintenance. This style gives more filtration, less
maintenance, a better way to go.

VAULT

We do not install skimmer boxes, bottom drains, bead or pressure filters,
which require more maintenance. We install Biofalls, Wet wells, and Bog
filtration. Less maintenance and provides better filtration.

The Wet Well filter area gets flushed and pumped out only
once a year in the Spring Startup service. The water that is
pumped out of the pond is used to wash and flush out the
wet well. An additional pump is applied to the wet well
snorkel access chamber and is used to discard the flushed
water out of the wet well filter area.
