How to Install
The Color Changing Colorfalls Project Bundles, with two people, should take less than a day to install! We’ve created Quick Install Guides and how to install videos to help walk you through the process.
You can see our Quick Install Guides here: Color Changing Colorfalls Bundle Install Guide
In our install videos, we show you how to complete this water feature, step by step: preparing the base, building the structure, installing the plumbing and capping the columns. The only exception to our videos is that we dry stack the block, you’ll be gluing your blocks together with construction adhesive according to the manufacturer’s guidelines.
Tools You’ll Need
For the Layout
Markout paint
Tape measure
2-ft level
4-ft level
A straight 2×4
For the Excavation
Wheelbarrow
Shovel
Tamper
Most stone manufacturers recommend setting their stones on a 4″ bed of tamped sand, stone dust or screenings. You’ll need about 8ft³.
For the Stone
Lump hammer or mallet
Grinder or chisel
For the Plumbing
A large wrench (Channellock 16.5″ tongue and groove pliers)
Screwdriver or nut driver
Tubing cutters or PVC saw
For the Hardscape
You will also need your hardscape stone and the manufacturer’s recommended construction adhesive. Atlantic’s Flexible Basins are sized to accommodate the most common engineered stone dimensions. For this installation we installed the Color Changing Colorfalls Project Bundle to an already existing wall and used a trapezoidal block curved wall solution by Belgard but, you could also create a rectangle enclosure.
