Frequently Asked Questions:

What are the dimensions and water capacity of the Aquascape 78205 Spillway Basin?
The Aquascape 78205 Spillway Basin features a generous 40-inch diameter (102 cm) and stands 16 inches tall. It is designed to act as a collection point or a standalone water feature, holding enough water volume to provide a consistent, tranquil flow over its integrated spillway lip.
What material is the 40" Patina Spillway Basin made of?
This basin is constructed from high-quality Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC). This professional-grade material provides the authentic look and weight of natural stone with a beautiful patina finish, but it is significantly more durable and easier to maneuver during installation than solid cast stone or concrete.
Can this spillway basin be used in a Pondless Waterfall system?
Yes, the Aquascape 78205 is ideal for Pondless Waterfall applications. It can be used as the top pool in a multi-tiered spillway design or as a standalone feature when paired with an AquaBasin 45. Its wide spillway ensures a smooth, uniform water curtain that enhances any backyard landscape.
What plumbing size is required for the Aquascape 78205 Spillway Basin?
The 40" Spillway Basin comes with a pre-installed 2-inch FPT (Female Pipe Thread) inlet. This standard size allows for a high-volume water flow, which is necessary to create a robust spillway effect. We recommend using 2-inch flexible PVC pipe and a pump rated between 2,000 and 4,000 GPH for the best visual results.
Is the patina finish on the Aquascape 78205 weather-resistant?
Absolutely. The Patina finish is specifically engineered to be UV-resistant and weather-hardy. Unlike painted finishes, this patina is designed to age naturally and gracefully within an outdoor environment, resisting peeling or fading even when exposed to direct sunlight and constant water flow.
How do I winterize the GFRC Spillway Basin in freezing climates?
To winterize your Aquascape 78205, we recommend draining the basin completely to prevent water from freezing and expanding inside. While GFRC is extremely durable, covering the basin or storing it in a dry area like a garage will extend the life of the finish and prevent surface stress during extreme freeze-thaw cycles.
