waterfalls are easier to install than flexible liner
ponds. The however come in fixed shapes and sizes so if
you want a pond liner to meet your own size and depth
requirements you need to install either a Butyl or PVC
pond liner
Pond underlay materials for professional finish
Pond underlay ... Underlaying your pond not only gives
it a professional finish but also provides a quality
foundation for your pond. Pond liners are only
guaranteed when underlaid correctly. We recommend that
you use our own underlay or an aquatic brand name
underlay. Polyfibrelay FROM 8.06. Polyfibrelay is
stronger than similar fabric underlays due to the needle
punch production method used in it's construction.
Designed to last a lifetime, moulds neatly to the
contours of your pond, resistant to root penetration.
Polyfibrelay is sold in sizes which compliment the
Polyex Liners. eg if you need a liner 6m x 5m, simply
choose the same size for your underlay. Standard
Underlay FROM 4.06. Extra thick heavy-duty polythene
underlay provides a highly effective barrier for budget
ponds. Puncture and tear resistant giving long lasting
support for your liner. Flexible, to mould to the
contours of your pond. Standard Underlay is sold in
sizes which compliment the Polyex Liners. eg if you need
a liner 6m x 5m, simply choose the same size for your
underlay.
- To estimate the size of the liner for a pond:
length of liner = (length + (2 x depth))+10% width
of liner = (width + (2 x depth))+10%
- To estimate the size of the liner for a
waterfall roughly: Length of liner =Length along the
horizontal + (2 x height of the head) Width of liner
= width of widest header pool + (2 X depth)
- Plan your pool with one dimension equals a
standard width of liner off the rolls. EPDM
generally comes in multiples of 5feet up to about
25feet , PVC and butyl in 2 metre widths up to
8metres in some places. Dramatic indentations in the
shape use up extra liner. Measure along the contour
of the pool excavation just to check before you try
to install it. In desperation you can gain a few
inches by laying it in skew, using the extra length
of the diagonal. Risky though.
- Don't stretch it into place. I don't care how
many books tell you. It needs to be tucked and
folded into place. Just before you cut too much off
around the top, then you can make sure it is
properly fitted by filling it with water.
- Use underlay and sand especially in gravely and
stony situations. The pressure of water magically
causes stones to float up through the sand and press
against the liner. Very odd. You also need to double
the underlay for conservation projects or projects
where the liner is going to be totally obscured by
stone work.
