Pondless Waterfall Pondless Waterfalls are simply a re-circulating waterfall and/or stream without the presence of a pond. You can enjoy the sight and sound of running water without the maintenance of a pond. The waterfall is undoubtedly the most beautiful and favored feature in a water garden. If space is lacking in your yard or you have safety concerns with a pond, go Pondless! The name basically explains it all. It’s a waterfall and stream, without the pond. So why would you want a waterfall without a pond? The truth is that a Pondless Waterfall isn’t for everyone, but it can be a great alternative for someone who isn’t quite sure if a pond is right for their family. Safety Because there is no pool of water, a Pondless Waterfall is a great option if you are concerned about safety issues associated with a traditional pond. Cost Cost can be a big factor when considering the type of pond you want to build. In most cases, the price of a Pondless waterfall will be less than a pond, because there is less labor involved, as well as less rock and materials. Operating costs are also less. Because you’re not dealing with an established ecosystem, it’s not necessary to run the pump 24/7. Space The small size of the Pondless Waterfall means you can build and enjoy a beautiful waterfall anywhere in your yard. Maintenance - Taking care of your Pondless Waterfall is easy. Filling the reservoir every few weeks to compensate for water loss because of evaporation is all that’s required. Flexibility Perhaps the best part of the Pondless Waterfall is the possibility for the future. If you change your mind later, wishing you’d build a pond, that’s ok! If you leave enough room around the base of the waterfall, it’s easy to add a pond onto a Pondless Waterfall. Complete System It might be difficult to imagine a waterfall and stream without a pond. Where does the water go? A Pondless Waterfall works much like a regular pond. The hole, deeper than a normal pond, is dug then lined with rock and gravel, and filled with water. The water is then circulated from beneath the rocks and gravel by a pump that sits on the bottom, inside a Snorkel Vault and Centipede Module. A pipe runs from there up to a BioFalls Filter and into an overflowing waterfall, where it falls back into the reservoir. Since the water level never pools above the level of the rock and gravel fill, it give the appearance of a waterfall without a pond, when in fact, the “pond” is there but not visible. The Pondless Waterfall has made many water-lovers who were previously unable to indulge in the sweet sounds of falling water, very happy. It’s a great alternative for those who are trying to get their feet wet, or looking to fit a little bit of paradise into their own backyard. In other words, when all else fails … go Pondless!

An updated master bathroom in a vintage 1900 cottage. The plinth based freestanding tub gives an original vintage feel to the room and the modern glassed-in shower adds 21st century amenities with a corner bench, rain shower head, hand held sprayer, and matching decorative grab bars providing safety features. Although the tile looks like marble it is actually easy care porcelain. Cabinetry and beaded wainscoting was designed to look original to the period and all moldings were matched to the homes original. The blue walls, Sherwin Williams 6477 Tidewater, provide a bright but soothing bath experience. Steven Long Photography

DESCRIPTION: Accessible Walk-In Shower Remodel — Union City, CA | 2018 This thoughtfully designed accessible shower remodel in Union City, CA proves that safety features and beautiful design don't have to be mutually exclusive. Every element was carefully selected to meet the needs of a mobility-conscious user while delivering a warm, elegant, spa-like result. The spacious walk-in shower is clad floor-to-ceiling in large-format travertine-look porcelain tiles in a warm cream and beige tone with natural veining, creating a welcoming and timeless backdrop. A continuous horizontal band of mixed glass mosaic tile in rich jewel tones — cream, champagne, burgundy, and amber — wraps all three walls at mid-height, adding color, shimmer, and visual interest. The recessed niche, lined with the same glass mosaic tile, is perfectly positioned within the decorative band for a seamless, intentional look. The shower floor features a small-format natural stone mosaic in a warm mix of taupe, rust, cream, and brown — providing excellent slip resistance while complementing the overall earthy palette beautifully. A center floor drain keeps the layout clean and functional. Safety and accessibility are fully integrated without compromise. Brushed nickel grab bars are strategically placed for support, and a wall-mounted fold-down teak bench with chrome hardware provides a stylish, durable seating option that tucks away when not in use. A handheld multi-function showerhead on a slide bar, along with a tub spout for optional filling, rounds out the highly functional fixture package. Recessed ceiling lighting illuminates the generous shower space evenly, making it feel bright and open. The result is a beautiful, fully accessible shower that any homeowner would be proud of. KEY FEATURES: Large-format travertine-look porcelain wall tile Horizontal glass mosaic accent band — all three walls Glass mosaic-lined recessed niche Natural stone small-format mosaic shower floor Wall-mounted fold-down teak bench Brushed nickel grab bars — multiple locations Multi-function handheld showerhead on slide bar Tub spout / diverter Center floor drain Recessed ceiling lighting Accessible / ADA-friendly design
