| Water Course Elements from
Oase.... |
 |
| There are many pre-formed waterfalls
on the market however Oase have approached this section
of the water garden with a different aspect....Rather
than creating a range of standard waterfalls Oase have
created four separate sections to enable you to create
your own style water course to your own individual
requirements and suit your style....
Oase have created the water course
section using sanded GFK, (Plastic and Fibreglass Mix)
and can easily be mistaken for real sandstone..... |

Water Course Tips...
- Location of the watercourse.
A watercourse is always best
situated in the shade, this is so that the natural heat
from the sun does not heat the water excessively. Many
bank plants will also provide shade when planted at the
watercourse edge.
- Water Movement.
Once you have decided on the watercourse
you need to make sure you get the correct pump to create
the right affect. There would be nothing more
disappointing than having a magnificent water course and
turning the pump on to see a trickle of water creeping
down the course. The
Oase Aquamax Range Of pumps are ideal for
watercourses, which pump specifically would depend on
many factors...One important factor is the width of the
watercourse.

Once you have the watercourse
width it is recommended you use the formula
Watercourse Width (cm) X 1.5 l/min =
capacity per l/min
You will also need to
consider the hose size which is best suited depending on
the distance and height you need to pump the water to
the start of the water course.
