Aquascape AquaBlox Large Water Storage Module

Aquascape AquaBlox Large Water Storage Module

Aquascape AquaBlox® Water Storage Module displaces water for Pondless Waterfall and rainwater collection projects. AquaBlox are manufactured using recycled materials and designed to efficiently maximise water storage capacity, providing the ability to hold more water with a smaller reservoir footprint. Each AquaBlox will hold approximately 7.4 gallons of water per cubic foot, allowing over 3 times the water storage capacity than gravel will provide. This extra storage capacity will mean less time needed to top off the reservoir due to evaporation.

Using AquaBlox will also decrease the amount of labour, liner, and underlayment required during installation. Load-bearing performance depends on the complete installation, including assembly, base preparation, cover and load distribution. Follow the manufacturer’s installation instructions and obtain design advice before placing heavy boulders or structures above the reservoir. Aquascape AquaBlox are easier to clean, less prone to clogging, and come complete with the top, bottom, two sides and four structural supports.

Key features and benefits

• Ideal for use with Pondless® Waterfalls, rainwater harvesting systems, and other applications
• Makes installation quick, safe, and less expensive
• Structural water-storage modules for a correctly designed and installed reservoir

Designing the underground reservoir

Calculate the reservoir from the running water volume, pump chamber requirements and the water held in the feature above it. Prepare a level, stable base and follow the specified load and geotextile arrangement. Provide access to the pump and clean-out points before the reservoir is covered.

Storage capacity and dimensions

This Aquascape AquaBlox Large Water Storage Module provides 121 litres of nominal water storage within a separately lined reservoir. It creates void space beneath the finished feature; it is not a watertight tank on its own.

Nominal storage is not the full usable running volume. Allow for water held in the stream and pipework, a reserve over the pump intake, splash and evaporation. AquaBlox modules require a separate watertight liner, protective geotextile and a properly prepared base.
