1
Determine the placement
of the Vianti Falls system.
Prepare the base for the
48" half basin by properly
compacting and leveling the
area. The Vianti Falls spillway
is designed to be placed
approximately 12" to 30"
above the basin. The center
of the spillway and the basin
must be aligned. The spillway
must be positioned in the wall
to allow for the lip to protrude
past the wall 11/4" (assuming
the wall is plumb). This is to
ensure water will land in the 6"
x 39" splash mat included with the basin. Extended lip kits
come with 14" x 39" additional splash mat to be installed
on top of basin (see page one).

When building the
block wall, a section
of wall must be left out to
accommodate the plumbing
and electrical cord for the
pump. The notch in the back
of the basin is for the power
cord of the pump. If an auto
ll line is being installed a
section of wall should also
be open to accommodate
the auto ll feed line.

3
Once the spillway
placement has been
determined in the block wall,
the block will need to be cut
to allow for the plumbing
connections on the back of
the spillway. Use appropriate
tools and extreme care when
cutting block. Consult block
manufacturer recommendations
for properly cutting block
being used.
4
If the lighting option is purchased the LED light strip
can be tted into the back of the spillway. There are
brackets on the ends of the light bars with holes in them.
These brackets are for other applications. The LED light
bar should t snuggly into the back of the spillway.
If necessary, a small amount of silicone can be used as an
adhesive to
hold the bar
in place.
5
Depending on the look
desired, the block that
goes around the spillway
may need to be cut to
ensure proper leveling and
look of the spillway in the
wall. The type of block
being used will determine
the method used. A lentil
may be required for longer
spillways or in walls that
would require additional
weight bearing support. Consult a qualied professional
for specic installation requirements and codes.
The spillway should be “dry t” to ensure the spillway is
level from side to side and front to back.
6
Once the spillway is
level and “dry t” the
plumbing can now be
tted. Use the1" PVC male
adaptor and the ttings
provided to connect
spillway to the exible PVC
pipe. Wrap the threads
of the PVC male adaptor
with Teon tape and thread
into the spillway inlet(s).
Determine the placement of additional ttings (elbows,
tees, and extra pipe). Cut and glue all the pieces together
to t the application.
7
The dual inlet units can be supplied with one mainline.
Picture is for illustration only. Application may vary
from image shown. After the mainline is split into two, the
plumbing lengths to the spillway inlets should be equal.
This will ensure equal ow rates to both inlets, while being
able to control the overall ow with a single ball valve.
8
The cord for the LED light
strip can be tucked into
the notch in the spillway.
A dab of silicone should be
used to seal the notch on
opposing side. Tuck the cord
between the blocks to run
the cord to the power source.
Ideally, run cord through
conduit for future maintenance or removal of light strip.

Optional: Steps 9-11 are for
auto ll installation. Not all
applications may need an
auto ll, autoll kit
#WFS37HB available.
9
Find the “Drill Point”
mark on the front of the
basin. The point/indent will
be on the opposite side of
the pump pocket from the
installed 1" bulkhead tting.
A 11/4" diameter hole should
be drilled (centered on the
“Drill Point”) to accommo -
date the 1/2" bulkhead tting.
10
Install the 1/2"
bulkhead tting
as shown. Wrap male
threads of ttings with
Teon tape. Install
elbow into bulkhead
tting and thread the
reducer bushing into
elbow. Thread the
barbed tting into outer
section of bulkhead
to connect to 1/2" poly
irrigation tubing (actual 5/8" ID tubing).

Before installing the
oat switch auto ll,
loosen the Phillips screw
to place oat in proper
orientation. It may be
necessary to remove the
screw and move the brass arm
which holds the oat to the
side as shown. This will allow for easier adjustment of the oat
to proper water level. Then thread the oat switch assembly
into the reducer bushing. Adjust the brass rod and oat to
approximate level of desired water level. Final adjustment
should be made when nal water level is determined.

Run the 1" black
exible PVC through
the hole previously provided
in the block wall. Carefully
measure and cut PVC pipe
to proper length. Take extra
care to verify the spillway
has remained in its level
position while measuring
and cutting the pipe.
13
Before gluing black
exible PVC pipe
verify the factory installed
ttings are tight. Then glue
the black exible PVC pipe
into the 45 degree elbow
that is pre-installed.
14
Assemble the pump
discharge assembly
onto the pump. Take care
not to cross thread or
over tighten the assembly
onto the pump. Since this
connection should always
be below water, Teon tape
and over tightening is not
required. Once the discharge
assembly is installed onto the pump, carefully lower the
pump and assembly into the pump chamber. Line up
the pump discharge with the pre-installed tting. Again
ensure that the pre-installed tting is tight. Connect the
pump discharge to the pre-installed tting with the rubber
coupler. A nut driver or screwdriver should be used to
tighten the clamps. Ensure that both clamps are tight.
15
After making sure
all plumbing ttings
are properly install ed, ll
the basin with water. The
spillway should be tested
for proper operation when
the wall construction all ows.
Before nal wall installation
and covering the basin with
rock, the proper ow of the
water fall should be adjusted (if needed) with the ball valve
on the pump discharge assembly.
16
Once proper
adjustment of the
spillway has be determined,
put the pump cover in place.
The power cord for the pump
can run through the notch in
the pump cover. The pump
cover can be placed in
position as shown or reversed.
17
Finish construction
of the block wall and
any other decorative stone
covering the basin. Be sure
to leave rock o the area of
the splash mat on the basin
where the water naturally
wants to fall. This will reduce
splash and help retain water in the basin.

Care:
The water used in the Vianti Falls system can be treated with EasyPro All-Season Bacteria and EasyPro Barley Straw
Extract to help prevent odors and keep the water clear. A liquid algaecide such as Pond Care’s Algae Fix or Microbe-Lift’s
Algaway 5.4 can also be used. Use of chlorine is not recommended, as this may have negative impact on the submersible
pump parts.
If water ow appears to be less than normal, water may need to be added to the basin (bubbles in the waterfall typically
indicate low water in the basin). A physical inspection of the pump may be necessary. Clean o any debris that may have
accumulated on the pump housing or inside the pump. Consult instructions of pump for more information.
Staining on the spillway should not be an issue. Surface staining can often be remedied with baking soda and lime juice
application or non-abrasive products such as Bar Keepers Friend. Be sure to follow manufacturer’s directions and keep
product from entering water with sh and plants.
Should the splash mat need to be replaced, contact your local EasyPro dealer to purchase replacement part #FWB48M
(6" x 39" mat) or part #FWB48SM (14" x 39" mat).
Winterization:
In freezing climates the pump will need to be removed from the basin in the winter. The roto-molded basin typically does
not need to be drained completely in the winter, but in certain climates this may be recommended.
The water level in the basin should be lowered below the outgoing bulkhead tting.
The stainless steel spillway does not need to be removed for the winter. Water naturally drains from the spillway when
the pump is not in use.
Auto-ll systems should be properly winterized.
