F.A.Q.

Customer Question: What is the maximum height it can be installed without the pattern breaking up?

Supplier's Answer: The rule of thumb is that water should fall in a sheet approximately the width of falls. 24" falls 24", 36" fall 36" and so forth.

Question: How do I install the top plate on top of the falls if I want to use Cinder blocks above the falls?

Answer: You had a question regarding the installation of our 36” stainless steel sheer falls (SEG2035D) with the top plate (TCP35).  Please note that NONE of the Calais units are load bearing nor intended to be in a load bearing situation.  The installation processes are numerous & only limited by the creativity of the installer itself.  One common method of installation is by notching into the wall material (stone or concrete blocks) to accommodate a load bearing lintel (steel grade “L” brackets) so that the units can still reside free from any weight.

Although the diagram below is for the acrylic sheer falls, this applies to all of the weirs in our Calais collection.  

All sizes have all the same length from front to back, approx 17" - 18".

Rear Entry:

This shows how light bar is mounted on both Sheer Flow and Sheer Cascade. It fits back under the stainless steel top plate

Helpful Hint from Supplier on Construction:

The Sheer Falls would be mounted above water level, so most likely well above the Firestone liner. Most Sheer Falls are installed when wall is being constructed. If the above ground pond is 24" deep, then Sheer Falls would be approx18" to 36" above the water level, depending how wide the Sheer Falls the customer installs. The more narrow the falls, the shorter distance water will fall in the perfect sheet that most desire. The customer would need to have a pump installed in pond with tubing from the pump going through the wall somehow and up to the rear of Sheer Falls. The water then cascades back in the pond.

If customer wants to provide a drawing, we could be more specific. But not all concrete blocks are the same. He would have to be able to improvise in the real world to mount in blocks. Most likely, he would have to do some cutting of the blocks to make it work.

Customer Question:

Can I pump water through a Bead Filter and then through this Sheerfalls?

Supplier's Answer:

“I would not recommend this set up: pump - filter - Sheer Falls. If they want the beautiful falls that the Sheer Falls creates, then it should have a dedicated pump. Any thing that can change the flow to falls, like a dirty filter, the Sheer Falls flow will be reduced and will not look good at all. There would not be reason to pay the $$ for Sheer Falls and not have beautiful sheet of water. By the way, both acrylic and SS falls are effected the same. Once flow is found using a ball valve, then that flow needs to be maintained.”
