    This old house (for pool equipment)

    Don’t forget to think outside the shed too. If your not worried about a floor you can always look for a plastic or synthetic built shed that does not incorporate the floor into structural integrity and just cut from bottom to size you want so the roof stays. That’s IF you find a low price...

    Ok boys just gonna ask about waterfall switch

    Sorry totally forgot about pics when I didn't see any replies Best I could do as this is all I can see from outside until pavers are up. So all I have to go on is the plastic you can see here and the receipt that states " two 24" sheer descent water falls"
