So it's nice to get into a chaise longue or chair in the chill of trees and enjoy on your own cottage a piece of wild nature in the form of a waterfall. His peaceful murmur relaxes, pacifies, distracts from everyday troubles and everyday worries.
Variants of an artificial waterfall in the country
There are several ways to equip the waterfall in the country. It can be an addition to the Alpine hill , the continuation of a stream, a pond with a waterfall or a cascading waterfall that looks best in the country.
The arrangement of a small decorative waterfall at the dacha is similar to the construction of a pond and any other pond. The only difference is that the waterfall is smaller in size and has a high lift - about 1-1.5 meters. If it is a cascading waterfall, then several more benches are needed.
The simplest design is assembled from two basins - a small one at the top and a little more from below. Water flows from one to the other under the action of the pump, then again pumped to the upper body of water. More complex designs can consist of three or more pools, where water flows from the uppermost to the lowest, returns and repeats its path.
The shape of the lower pond for the flow of water from the waterfall can be anything - strictly geometric or free. It all depends on your wishes and tastes. Also, the depth of the lower basin can also vary. If you want to populate its underwater flora and fauna, the depth should be at least a meter high. Yes, and the size in this case should be sufficient for the comfort of fish and vegetation.
Great attention should be paid not only to the device, but also to the decoration of the waterfall. Most often it is decorated with boulders, stones, sand tiles. Green vegetation will not be a hindrance - it will give a waterfall of realism and similarity to wildlife.
