Troubleshooting

Before proceeding, make sure the pump system is fully
functional and activated. Also, ensure all air is purged
from plumbing lines.
6.1 Troubleshooting
Problem
The waterfall is not
completely smooth. A gap
or gaps in the sheet of the
waterfall is present.
Where multiple waterfalls
are installed, one of the
waterfalls is stronger than
the other(s).
6.2

Freeze Protection and Winterizing

In order to prevent freeze damage to the system, the
plumbing to the unit must be installed so water drains
easily from the system. The Sheer Descent and Fiber
Fall waterfalls have been engineered to allow only a
minimum of water to stay in the unit as long as the
plumbing is installed properly. Blow out all water from
the pipes and Sheer Descent or Fiber Fall unit. Follow
the normal procedures for winterizing.
