Reservoir Cubes

Reservoir Cubes (Res-Cubes) are a great way to simplify installation of Just-A-Falls, formal fountains and other basins typically using a large quantity of rock. These sturdy plastic cubes can be stacked together to partially or totally fill the reservoir of a Just-A-Falls. This dramatically reduces the labor involved; reservoir size; and material cost in liner, under layment and rock! Rather than develop expensive molds and tooling to make a product for this we simply used our buying power to negotiate good prices on an existing product in the marketplace. These oversized milk crates eliminated molding charges and by purchasing 3,690 (a full 53' semi load) at a time, we can sell them for less than you would pay buying direct in smaller quantities.

Res-Cubes help reduce overall cost by:
• Reducing rock tonnage.
• Reservoir can be made smaller because of the increased water percentage due to less rock being used.
• Installation time is reduced considerably. Smaller reservoir hole means less digging, less liner and less labor.
• Increase reservoir water capacity from 40% with rock to 85% with res-cubes.

Calculating Quantity of Cubes Needed:

To determine the approximate quantity of res-cubes to fill in your reservoir simply calculate cubic feet of reservoir (length x width x depth = cubic feet) and divide by 1.572. This will give you the approximate number of cubes it will take to fill your reservoir.

Res-Cubes saves you $$$ and time!
The following comparison shows the savings of time and rock by using Res-Cubes:

-

 

A typical 8' x 10' x 3' deep reservoir filled with rock would take:
• Approximately eleven ton of rock;
• A liner 20' x 20';
• An underlayment 20' x 20';
• 80 square feet of ground space;
• and hold approximately 718 gallons of water
A 6' x 8' x 3' reservoir with cubes would take:
• 60 Res-Cubes;
• A liner 15' x 20';
• An underlayment 15' x 20';
• 1.5 ton of rock to cover top of cubes;
• 48 square feet of ground space;
• and hold approximately 754 gallons of water
As you can see by the comparison on the left, a much smaller reservoir will actually hold more water when you use res-cubes! The labor saved in digging a 40% smaller hole along with the huge time savings of 9.5 ton less rock to move adds up to more money for you, the contractor!

The cost for the cubes is approximately the same as the cost of the rock but the labor savings will be substantial. Keep in mind labor costs and machine time to move rock from delivery point (front yard/curbside) back to reservoir and the time spent stacking rocks into the reservoir.
One person can carry and install 60 Res-Cubes
by themselves (no machine) in 15 minutes!

RESTRICTED PLANTS: Some states have bans on certain pond plants. Check the USDA Noxious Plants website prior to purchase. The buyer needs to beware of any regulations on plants that may be restricted. If your order gets confiscated by your state agriculture department we cannot be held responsible.

CLIMATE VARIATIONS: We guarantee our plants will arrive alive and healthy. Pond Plants grow differently depending on where you live. If you took pond plants of the same type, and planted them in different parts of the USA, each plant would grow differently. This is Mother Nature at work. We cannot guarantee that your climate will support long term growth as this varies by location. With experience you will find which pond plants thrive in your USDA Zone. Join our Pond, Watergarden and Plant Forum and ask some questions before you buy is the best advice we can give you.

SUBSTITUTIONS: We reserve the right to substitute similar plants of equal or greater value unless you specifically request otherwise in the remarks section of your order. This happens almost never though, and if it does happen it is usually in regard to floating and submerged oxygenation plants.
