Pondless Waterfalls F.A.Q.
Are pondless waterfalls suitable for San Clemente properties?
Yes. San Clemente’s coastal homes and terraced yards are a great match for pondless systems. These features can be customized to work with sloped or flat terrain, maximizing visual impact in any space.
Are they a safe choice for homes with children or pets?
Absolutely. There is no open water in a pondless waterfall, making them safe for families. Water disappears into a basin covered by rock and gravel, keeping everything secure.
How do they work without a pond?
Water flows down a natural rock arrangement into a concealed underground basin. A pump recycles the water back to the top, creating a continuous and efficient water stream.
Low Maintenance
San Clemente residents often seek outdoor features that are beautiful but do not require constant attention. A pondless waterfall is the perfect solution. With no pond to clean and no fish to care for, the system is simple to maintain and enjoyable year round.
