Features to make garden pond installation and maintenance a breeze!

During product design over 100 professional installer contractors and retailers were polled to find out the top features and benefits that our products needed to have to be successful. The results of those polled contributed to the creation of the friendliest, easiest to install, longest lasting products available for pond construction and maintenance.

• Easily blend the waterfall and skimmer into your landscape:  Our Elite Waterfall Landscape Lid allows the falls to be rocked over, mulched over, or planted with live plants. Without a Landscape Lid, you'll be looking straight at a black plastic box at the top of your falls.    All PBD Skimmers come complete with a natural stone faux lid to blend in naturally with the surroundings vs. a black plastic lid which sticks out.
• Filters will not distort: PondBuilder filters are manufactured using thick, high quality materials, and are are engineered with gussets and ribs to provide structural support that prevents distortion.  Distortion happens when the dirt compacts around the filter and causes it to become misshapen.  This can make it difficult or impossible to fit the net and mat (filtration media) back inside the filter.  Worse yet, if the filter is distorted, the lid might not fit back onto the filter at all. 
• Options for everyone: PBD offers an entry level DIY product, a medium duty retail product, and a contractor grade elite product line.  Choose the line that fits your project and budget.

Many other convenient additional features!

• Automatic water fill to replace evaporated water and overflows to take care of heavy rainwater.
• Most skimmers come standard with upgraded media like matala filtration mats, one-piece molded stainless net frames, stainless hardware, extended faceplate snouts, and pump cord cut-outs.
• Most waterfall boxes come standard with upgraded media like matala filtration mats, dual industrial style spinweld intake fittings, detachable weir installs easily.
