| Granite & Stone Water Feature Installation | |
| Note: Under the new electrical installation requirements for UK, DIY external installations are not allowed, they must be done by a qualified professional electrician.
featureDECO can supply reservoirs, pumps and lighting for your installation. All and stone & granite features are only supplied with recommended plastic reservoirs to support the weight.

 | | |
| 1. Mark out the Pre-formed Reservoir - Using a pre formed reservoir saves a great deal of time |
|
 | | |
| 2. Dig appropriate size hole and place reservoir so that it is level and firm. For very heavy granite structures, concrete under the wings for extra strength. |
|
 | | |
| 3. Place the feature on the reservoir and feed the hose through from the top of the feature - (ensure you have plenty of hose available) Tape or silicone the gap between hose and granite to prevent water running back inside the feature |
|
 | | |
| 4. If you are using a Spotty Light, feed the light up through the feature from the bottom end - leave it clear of the hose to increase water flow |
|
 | | |
| 5. Coil a piece of soft wire around the thight and push it into place ( The wire will stop the light moving when the water is flowing |
|
 | | |
| 6. Cut a small slit in the hose and pull the cable for the light into the slit ( this can be sealed with silicone) |
|
 | | |
| 7. Attach hose to pump using Jubilee Clip available from local DIY |
|
 | | |
| 8. Put the pump into the reservoir and you are finished - 12v Transformers must be inside or in the dry, Pumps must be on a protected circuit breaker supply |
|

| 9. Finished |
