Step 1: Fixed water storage container

1. Dig a hole in a low-lying area of the yard.

2. Carefully level it to prevent the container from tilting.

3. Fill the area around the container with soil and gravel to secure it.

Step 2: Building a waterfall architecture

4. Dig terraced channels along the hillside to guide water to flow down naturally.

5. Lay down black plastic sheeting (pond liner) to prevent water seepage.

6. Arrange the plastic sheeting to conform to the surrounding terrain.

Step 3: Solar Waterfall Kit Installation

7. Slowly fill the pond with water until the water level completely covers the pump.

8. Install solar panels in a location with ample sunlight and no obstructions whatsoever.

9. Thread the cable through the PVC conduit for protection.

Step 4: Add Plants & Decorations

10. Fill the gaps between stone slabs with joint sealant.

11. Lay pond underlayment beneath the black plastic liner to prevent punctures.

12. Add soil, pebbles, flowers, and other elements to beautify the surrounding environment.
