We have the perfect Outdoor Well Cover to hide those ugly water wells at this link: https://www.rocksfast.com
Choosing the right outdoor well cover to hide and protect water well pumps, tanks and risers can be a difficult process. No two water well installations are exactly the same. There is no such thing as an outdoor well cover that will fit everyone's well. With so many different configurations, pump and pressure tank sizes it can be a pain to find the right enclosure.
Hiding and protecting those ugly water wells don't have to require building a large pump house anymore. A large selection of fake rocks is now available to help homeowners find the perfect size enclosure to fit the well in the yard or garden areas around the home.
Each outdoor well cover is available in a variety of extremely realistic colors and textures that mimic real rocks and will blend any ugly plastic or metal parts nicely into the natural surroundings quickly and easily.
Well piping can also be hidden with outdoor well cover rocks. In some cases, the pipes will need to be insulated along with the well pressure tank if one exists. Not all exterior water well installations feature pressure tanks outdoors. But those that do will often require some sort of protection over the tank to prevent it from freezing in the winter.
Each outdoor well cover we sell includes an option to have vents installed or insulation included in the purchase. This way everything is covered all in one easy to use application.
Simply open the box and place the enclosure over your well to disguise it. Of course, the larger boulder covers will require a bit more effort to set in place, but they will still take much less time, money and effort than building a well pump house or other structure around the pump and tank.

All sizes and colors of DekoRRa Well Pump Covers with fast sizing assistance at https://www.rocksfast.com
They are made with a patented manufacturing system called "Real-Rock" which creates a very realistic texture that includes natural colors and U.V. protection.
Unlike many other brands that quickly fade and crack when left out in the sun or in the cold winter weather, DekoRRa well pump covers are thick and very strong. Most models can be sat or even walked over without any damage.
Depending on the application, vents can be installed in the enclosures prior to shipping. The vents are important because they allow air to flow through and out to provide cooling. If there is an electric motor exposed above the ground and it is going to be covered as part of the installation then it is crucial that any enclosure placed over it be properly vented.
3" and 4" vents are the most popular sizes. Make sure to include at least two vents so air can flow through the rock from vent to vent. A single vent will not provide much airflow and will not properly cool any electronic motors under the enclosure.
DekoRRa Well Pump covers are available in small sizes for standard water well risers. And they can also be purchased for covering extremely large well and pressure tank installations. These boulders are very handy because they can be ordered with vents, insulation and electric heat. These options provide homeowners with a wide variety of options to consider.
DekoRRa Well Pump covers are available in 4 natural colors: Fieldstone FS, Riverbed RB, Sandstone SS and Autumn Bluff AB. This is grreat because the different color selections allow for variety and easy matching with the surrounding landscape.

Water well risers and outdoor pumps can be very ugly when positioned out in the yard. It is not wise to simply hide them with bushes or shrubs because at times they will need access and the roots from trees and shrubs can damage well piping.
All it takes is a tape measure to determine the height, length, and width of the well and compare the dimensions to the different hollow rock sizes. Many of the DekoRRa Rock Well Cover models are specifically constructed to fit a variety of well sizes and configurations quickly and easily.
Many customers ask us if it is necessary to vent a rock well cover in order to prevent the electric pump motor from overheating when it is running in warm summer months.
If the well has a submerged pump then no vent is necessary. However, if the well pump is positioned above grade then it is wise to provide air flow to prevent the pump motor from getting too hot and burning out.
Depending on the size of the well pump most customers have teo or three vents installed in the rock well cover prior to installing it. Insulation is another option to consider if the well will be exposed to frost and freezing winter temperatures.

First you want to distinguish where the well pump and motor is located. Most residential well installations feature the well pump submerged down in the well shaft. An electric motor in the pump creates pressure and pushes the water up the well shaft and into the home where it is pressurized and sent throughout the home's faucets and toilets.
An exterior well ensemble includes the pump and electric motor above the ground and positioned next to the pressure tank which is also outside. These installations are usually on a concrete slab and the pump and electric motor is not submerged in water. Without water to cool the electric motor, airflow must be used.
This is one of the reasons why it is important that some well pump covers be vented, while others do not need to be vented. As a general rule, if the water well pump is submerged down in the well, then vents are not necessary when looking to buy well pump covers.
However, placing an unventilated enclosure over a well installation with an exterior mounted pump and motor can result in an overheated pump and expansive repairs.

Outdoor water well pumps and tanks often times require some sort of protective structure to keep them insulated and seperated from the elements.
Building a shed or stick built frame can be very costly and time consuming and most of these designs will require maintenance like painting over time.
Since the outdoor well tank and pump may require periodic maintenance, it is important that there is easy access to the components and enough room to work around the pump, tanks and piping.
Instead of all the expense and back breaking work of building an enclosure from scratch, use a large size faux boulder to protect the entire unit the fast and easy way.
Our extra large size faux boulders are big enough to flip over many outdoor well pump and tank layouts. The light weight design makes carrying the fake boulders an easy one or two person job. And once on site the cover is easily lifted up and over the well. Special flanges at the bottom of the rock allows one to pound the included ground stakes into the earth to pin the rock in place.
Or if the outdoor well is on a concrete pad then concrete anchors can be used to pin the rock in place.
To access the components underneath the rock one needs to simply lift the rock up and to the side or just tilt one side up and flip the rock away. They are extremely durable and scratch resistant and constructed of highly UV resistant materials.
Well pump house rocks can also be insulated and heated for additional protection during cold winter months.

There are 2 distinct types of faux landscape rocks: DekoRRa, and cheap imitations.
Cheap imitations are made from thin plastic that does not withstand the elements. It becomes brittle from U.V. damage and cracks easily from the stress of freeze and thaw cycles.
The thin plastic walls do not feature very much texture, giving these faux landscape rocks a smooth, wax-like appearance that will only distract from your yard's landscaping.
DekoRRa has actually patented it's faux landscape rocks. It is a patented molding process called "Real-Rock" and it creates stunning results. Deep, gritty texture and extremely realistic colors blend and create a beautiful rock-like appearance.
DekoRRa faux landscape rocks are cleverly designed to accommodate a wide variety of lawn and garden utilities. What a great way to hide that ugly water wellhead, septic tank riser, vent pipe, outlet, irrigation valve, cable TV or electrical box once and for all.
A patented and clever flanging system allows one to pound included ground stakes through small holes in the flanges to secure the edges of the boulder to the ground. This provides protection from the wind so the faux landscape rocks do not blow away on windy days. It is also a great way to keep critter and curious toddlers out from under the enclosure.

Fiberglass rocks are old school and ugly compared to what's for sale at https://www.rocksfast.com.
Leave fiberglass for boat hulls and hot tubs! Polyethylene plastic makes much more realistic and durable fake rocks. DekoRRa molds each Mock Rock using a patented "Real-Rock" molding process which creates stunning results.
All of the texture and colorant is molded into the rock walls, not sprayed or painted on to fade, chip and flake over time. Advanced U.V. inhibitors are blended into the plastic as well. This creates a solid barrier of highly U.V. resistant material that does not fade or become brittle when left outdoors all year long.
The last thing you want are fiberglass rocks that crack and puncture when they are mowed around. And making fiberglass rocks appear realistic always requires painting. Everything with paint on it fades over time when left outdoors. It's a given. So why not avoid it entirely?
If you need rock covers to hide objects in your yard then why not buy something that looks like a real rock and will actually enhance the landscaping and generate curb appeal?
DekoRRa Mock Rocks feature ultra-realistic textures that are actually gritty to the touch. They look and feel like real landscaping rocks, minus all the smashed fingers and heavy lifting of using actual boulders.
The lightweight designs mean you can lift them easily for moving them or to access what is underneath. Stakes are included with each rock and are used to pin the rock cover down for wind protection.

With so many different shapes and sizes available it can be a challenge to find the correct faux rock covers for your front or back yard landscape. The last thing you want to deal with is having to send back a fake boulder that turns out to be too small to fit over the object you intended it to hide.
Because of the large size, these ship in very large boxes or on pallets, so return shipping costs can be very high. In other words, you want to make sure you get it right the first time!
Properly sizing the object you intend to cover is the most important step. Make sure you measure the base of the object, and the top. You need to write down the length and width of the object down at the bottom, and the length and width up at the top. Also note the overall height of the object.
The big mistake people make when they buy faux rock covers is failing to understand that there is less interior room up near the top vs down near the bottom where the base is at it's largest size.
By measuring carefully you can make sure you are not buying faux rock covers that are too small and will need to be shipped back for an exchange.
Once you have measured, you can consult the interior dimension charts to see which faux rock covers will best fit your application.
Another way that is even easier is to enter the measurements into the form on this webpage to receive a list of models that will work for you.

Several different fake rock septic covers are available to fit septic risers of different diameters ranging from small to large.
Fake rock septic covers can be placed over concrete and plastic sewer system risers. It is important to vent the rock cover when placing over septic. Most customers choose to purchase two or three of the vents which are installed prior to shipment.
The vents are also painted to match the chosen DekoRRa Mock rock color. This allows the vents to blend into the rock walls more effectively.
Venting is also important when covering electrical boxes to prevent the unit from overheating in the warmer summer months.
For security, we advise using the included ground stakes to pin the outer edges of the fake rock septic cover to the ground. This makes it more difficult to remove from the tank.
You will also want to make sure that the septic cap itself is locked down at all times. Many plumbers use a sturdy chain and padlock to lock septic caps.
It is also advisable to consider the color of your home and of existing landscaping rocks to best match the color of the fake rock septic covers in your yard.

For homeowners living out in rural areas, finding good septic tank cover ideas is a click away at RocksFast.com
The hardest part of hiding those ugly concrete and plastic septic risers and cleanouts is the fact that the entire area is prone to frequent access.
Plumbers need to get at the septic tank when it is in need of pumping, testing and inspection, so burying it under stones or planting thick shrubs and bushes around it is never ideal.
Regardless of which septic tank cover ideas you decide on it's important to always incorporate a proper venting system that will all air to flow through the enclosure unrestricted.
The DekoRRa Septic Cover Rocks can be purchased with vents painted to match the rock color and installed in the rock. Usually two or three vents are recommended, depending on the type, size and location of the septic tank riser.
It is also important to consider the fact that the rock cover will need to be lifted or tilted off of the septic riser on occasion. So make sure you don't go locking the cover down to a concrete anchor or something crazy that would deter the plumber from accessing the tank.
It is also a good idea to keep the septic cover itself locked securely so kids and critters can't open it.
Most customers wanting septic tank ideas consider the DekoRRa Models 108, 111, 112, 118 and the 103 if the tank is quite large in size.

With so many different mock rocks to choose from, finding the right size DekoRRa rock enclosures can be a challenge. The most important thing to consider is the fit of the rock.
The most common issue is choosing DekoRRa rock enclosures that are too small to fit over the intended utility. If you are trying to disguise a water well riser, for example, it is important you measure the exact height as well as the width up at the top.
With this information in hand, you can accurately discern which DekoRRa rock enclosures will function well by reading the interior dimension charts that outline the amount of space available inside of the rock walls.
The rock texture does diminish the amount of interior space available inside the rock cover. The more extreme the rock texture is, the less interior space is available inside the DekoRRa rock enclosures.

Finding the right artificial rocks for your needs if often as easy as simply measuring the object in need of covering and using the charts to decide which rock to use.
The problem most people encounter is when it is time to consult the charts. Because of how each of the artificial rocks are molded, the amount of interior space decreases with height.
So a rock that is 2ft by 3ft wide at the base may only have about 14" by 18" of interior space up near the top of the rock.
This can make buying artificial rocks tricky. We always encourage customers to use our free sizing service to play it safe and get it right the first time.
