Aussie's observations

Suitable for:  Any wall, with different lip extension options to suit thick or thin walls
What we liked: The clear plastic lip allows easy blending with any wall colour. Hurlcon is a respected Australian manufacturer, so we know the quality is consistent.
If used as a sheet descent:  This spillway performs best as a projecting sheet (sheer descent), but does a good job as sheet descent (softly down the wall) when the water flow is reduced to 59% .

 A point to consider for the sheer descent** (projecting sheet effect): The further the water drops, the narrower it becomes due to surface tension. The drop in the photo's above is .8mm to give you an idea. Another way to understand this tapering effect is that for every 50cm of drop, the width of the sheet of water narrows by about 100mm.  After about 1.0m of drop the sheet starts to break up.

How to choose your pump: The spillway can either have it's own independent pump or can be linked to the main pool or Spa pump. Waterblade projecting sheet spillway requires a flow of at least 26 Litres per minute and a maximum of 50 litres per minute for every 300mm of spillway width. This flow rate is measured at the spillway, therefore in choosing the pump, the distance* between the surface of the water and the spillway is a factor that only you will know.  Click for projection chart and pump flow recommendations
