What is an Aqua Flow Sub Base?
Fast draining sub base
The Aqua Flow Sub Base, developed by Prestige Lawns, is an advanced sub base solution designed to enhance drainage and extend the lifespan of your artificial lawn. This sub base is meticulously engineered to provide a smooth, stable foundation, ensuring optimal performance and longevity for your lawn.
Installation Process
Ground Preparation: We start by stripping out a specific layer of the existing ground and levelling surface to prepare for the sub base installation. All existing ground will be disposed of off site.
Weed Membrane: A weed membrane is installed to prevent weed growth.
Aqua Flow Stone Sub Base Installation: The Aqua Flow stone sub base is laid, creating a smooth, even surface. This step ensures the lawn is installed at existing levels.
Unique Composition
Our Aqua Flow Sub Base is composed of a specially designed stone mixture that forms a honeycomb shape. This unique structure allows for rapid drainage of rainwater and pet urine, preventing the accumulation of moisture.
Benefits of an Aqua Flow Sub Base
Improved Drainage: The honeycomb structure of the Sub Base facilitates fast drainage, significantly reducing the risk of waterlogging. This design ensures that rainwater and pet urine are quickly and efficiently drained away, keeping your lawn dry and healthy.
Odour Prevention: Unlike other sub base materials that can retain liquid and moisture, leading to unpleasant odours, the Sub Base prevents the build-up of stagnant water. This feature is particularly beneficial for pet owners, as it minimizes the potential for odours caused by pet urine.
Improved Stability: The Aqua Flow Sub Base eliminates divots and uneven ground, providing a stable and even surface for your lawn. This stability is crucial for the overall performance and aesthetic appeal of your artificial grass.
Longevity: By preventing moisture retention and ensuring effective drainage, our sub base helps maintain the integrity and appearance of your lawn for years. This extended lifespan makes it a valuable investment for any lawn installation.
Compatibility with Hard Surfaces: Our sub base is designed to be installed against hard surfaces such as paving, brickwork, sleepers, gravel board, or steel edging. This compatibility ensures that the sub base remains secure and effective, improving the overall durability of your lawn.
