At 51 kg it is the only kit in the range one person can move without help. It is also the only one you could reasonably install over a weekend without hiring anything.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is sized by reservoir, not by length. The 134 litre reservoir supports roughly 0.87 square metres of stream, which you can spend however suits your garden: about two metres long by 430 mm wide, or a shorter, wider run of 1.5 metres by 580 mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe trade-off against the larger kits is real. No lighting, a smaller EcoWave 8000 pump, and 12 square metres of underlay rather than 36. If you already know you want a stream you can hear from inside the house, start at the Small kit instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere this one earns its place is as a first water feature. It is the cheapest way to find out whether you like living with moving water before committing to a bigger build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow a pondless waterfall actually works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a closed loop, half of it buried. The same water goes round and round. None of it ever sits in an open pond. This is the half that photographs never show you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin:18px 0 0;border:1px solid #E6E6E6;border-radius:10px;padding:10px;background:#FFFFFF;\"\u003e\u003csvg style=\"width:100%;height:auto;display:block\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 760 392\" preserveaspectratio=\"xMidYMid meet\" role=\"img\" aria-labelledby=\"tdiy ddiy\"\u003e\n\u003ctitle id=\"tdiy\"\u003eCutaway of a pondless waterfall\u003c\/title\u003e\n\u003cdesc id=\"ddiy\"\u003eSide cut-away. A pump inside the buried vault (1) sends water up a hidden pipe to the spillway (2). It runs down the rock stream you build (3), then soaks through the gravel back into the 134 litre reservoir (4).
