Here’s a sneak peek at the waterfall and koi pond we are working on in Hendersonville, Nc.
This pond and waterfall system has many different features to make it very unique.
We added some floating stone steps across the pond, an airlift filter grid in the bottom of the pond and a large wetland filter at the top of the falls.

It’s going to be pretty awesome when we’re all done. We still need to finish some of the edging, landscaping, patio and lighting.
We just finished this really fun project in Burnsville, NC. Our clients had an existing Koi pond that was failing. It was an old wooden structure the retained the pond.
We talked about options to fix the feature and deck that a rebuilt was needed. So we made plans to create a new outdoor space around the pond. The finished design incorporated a new dedicated Koi pond, a Pondless waterfall, stone stairs and a dry laid flagstone patio.

The pond ended up being 10×15 ft by 6 ft deep. We installed a rotating drum filter with a moving bed biological filtration system. This filter is top of the line and automatically cleans itself!
Below the pond we installed a Pondless waterfall with a Filtrific filter. We installed this waterfall seem as it flows out of the pond, but it’s a separate system.

We also installed a stone slab stairway that wrapped around the pond and leads you down to the lower waterfall.
Pondless Waterfalls
There is a stone bridge over the falls that makes a great feature.

It was an amazing project to be a part of. And I’m very thankful to be able to work with such awesome clients!
Here’s a quick video of a waterfall rebuild we just finished in Hendersonville, Nc.
The original feature was a traditional Pondless waterfall that had become unusable due to the amount of debris in the system.
The traditional Pondless waterfall system has a basin at the bottom of the falls that is filled with AquaBlox. This basin holds the volume of water needed to run the system.
Seen below as we were removing the existing AquaBlox.
The picture below shows the amount of debris we pulled out of the basin.
The traditional Pondless system works fine if it is well maintained. However we prefer to install the Filtrific vanishing waterfall system. It allows us to easily clean out the basin if needed and is easy to maintain for our clients or maintenance crew.

It’s an awesome pleasure to have a job building Waterfalls in Asheville, NC.
Its hard work but it’s very rewarding. At the end of the job we get to sit by a relaxing stream or waterfall and enjoy our labor of love.
We just finished this waterfall in Asheville that flows into a natural clay lined pond. We added an aeration system to help circulate the water and oxygenate the pond.
Check back soon for more pictures of the finished project, including plants and a low voltage aquatic lighting system.
By the way, this is our fourth Waterfall build for a new wedding venue in Asheville. So give us a call if you need a water feature for your wedding venue!
