Pondless Waterfall System ASK3050 — 5m Stream
The Aquascape Professional Pondless Waterfall Kit ASK3050 is the middle option in the JapanGarden range and, for many gardens, represents a particularly useful balance between scale and flexibility.
With an approximately 5 metre watercourse, there is enough length to introduce changes of direction, intermediate cascades, quieter stretches and carefully positioned stones. Rather than treating the feature simply as a waterfall, the longer stream allows it to become part of the garden itself—moving through planting and stonework and creating changing views as it travels through the landscape.
This is especially suited to a naturalistic Japanese garden where the watercourse is intended to feel as though it belongs to the existing landscape. A combination of larger structural stones, smaller river stone and carefully selected planting can soften the edges while maintaining a clear visual structure.
The ASK3050 uses the same underlying Professional Pondless system as the smaller kits. Water is held in a concealed reservoir constructed from AquaBlox and pond liner, with the pump located in an accessible Pondless Waterfall Vault. The pump returns water to the upper Waterfall Spillway, from where it travels through the constructed stream and returns to the hidden reservoir. Landscapeplus
The kit includes the principal liner, underlay, reservoir, pump, vault, spillway, plumbing and connection components, together with waterfall foam, silicone sealant and Aquascape's SL dosing and treatment products. Landscapeplus specifically notes that additional fleece and waterfall foam can be obtained where required. Landscapeplus
Position within the range: ASK3050 sits between the compact ASK3020 2m Stream and the larger ASK3080 8m Stream. It is likely to be the most versatile choice where the garden has sufficient length for a genuine stream experience but does not require the scale of the largest system.
