Approximate Gallons of Water in a POND		Length	Width	Avg. Depth
Basin takes up approximately 80% of the actual SQ. FT.

Approximate Gallons of Water in a STREAM		Length	Width	Avg. Depth
**You need 2x the amount of water in your basin**


Approximate Gallons of Water in a PONDLESS ®
WATERFALL BASIN
		Length	Width	Avg. Depth
With Stone					Gal. in Basin
With Large Matrix					Number of matrix used
			Number of matrix used =		Gallons in the Basin

With Small Matrix					Number of matrix used
			Number of matrix used =		Gallons in the Basin

Electrical Consumption / Conversions
		Amps	Volts	kw/perhour
Monthly Cost
Watts = volts x amps					Watts
		Watts	Volts
Amps = watts ÷ volts					Amps


Rock Calculation for the POND		Length	Width
*Using a 1:2:1 ratio*					Tons of boulders
For every (1 TON) of 6”-12” rock,					Lbs. of Gravel
Get (2 TON) of 12”-18” and (1 TON) of 18”-24”

Quantity of Boulders used in a STREAM
For Every 10’ of STREAM = (1 ½ TON) using 1:2:1 RATIO from above

Quantity of GRAVEL Used in the STREAM
Stream Gravel = 30% total tons of STREAM Boulders


Small MicroPond/ D.I.Y.		Length	Width
Rock Calculation for the POND					Lbs. of boulders

Small MicroPond / D.I.Y.
Quantity of Boulders used in a STREAM
For Every 10’ of STREAM = (½ TON) 6”-12” & (½ TON) 12”-18”
