Atlantic Water Gardens Scupper

No, this scupper is designed exclusively for freshwater applications. The copper-plated finish on the stainless steel body is not suitable for saltwater environments and will corrode.

The 12-inch model is designed to handle a flow rate of up to 1,200 gallons per hour. For the best sheet-water effect, ensure your pump is sized to provide a consistent flow within this range.

The scupper features a standard 1.5-inch female pipe thread (FPT) inlet. This allows for a straightforward connection to most standard plumbing setups using a matching male adapter.

While the copper plating is durable, it will naturally patina over time when exposed to the elements. To maintain the original polished look, you can gently clean it with a non-abrasive cloth, but avoid harsh chemicals that could strip the finish.

The scupper is built with a non-clogging weir design, which helps maintain a consistent flow even if small particles pass through. However, for the best performance and to keep the water sheet smooth, we recommend using a pump with a pre-filter or skimmer.

The scupper features a 5-inch lip extension. This design helps project the water away from the wall or structure, ensuring a clean, graceful cascade into your pond or basin.
