Instructions call for 5 bags but we used 2 1/2 bags in a bucket and buried the whole bucket. Working out great.

My husband used 3 bags, which was a little more than we actually needed. He went deeper and wider than he really needed to. Just wanted it to be safe.

The instructions call for SIX 90 Pound concrete bags. (540 lbs)You need to dig a 18" wide hole by 24" deep. The cement goes in the hole and later into the pole.You can view the assembly instructions at: http://www.lifetime.com/customerservice/assemblyinstructions

It depends on your hole. We dug the hole to what the instructions said and used 5 1/2 bags of cement.

It is installed over a 4x4 pressure treated post that you purchase separately. It also requires concrete to anchor the post. You can purchase the kind of concrete meant for setting posts that you pour dry into the hole around the post and then add a bucket of water on top. Sets up pretty quickly. Easy install.

Mounting in cement would take finding the right size hex-top cement screws, and a strong arm with "lateral push power" to sink bit from the side (VS. top-down angle). Doable with some pain.

Depends on the number if fittings you install. I would think for 5 tips the most you would need would be 30 liters per hour.

1 meter or just over 39 inches. But, remember that it mates to itself so the actual amount you have is to put on a single surface is have of that length.

The instructions call for a cement pour, but I found that appropriate sized rocks gave the needed stability. I use this item each week and find it easy to erect and 'dis-erect' and have found it was just what I needed.

I believe 250#. Make a template before you finish your wall so you know exactly where to put blocking to screw into.

4 posts. Make sure to use a commercial hammer drill for install, cuts time big time. Took about 3 hours total to install

About 18 inches. I bought the good cement from homedepot instead of using the one that came in the box to make sure. It's still working well now that it's on it second summer. Just make sure you put a filter before the system so it won't clog up.

I returned this item (to complicated) and opted to install it in concrete. Contact mdooling@etsmiami.com and Maria will give you complete details. Tom

I had a neighbor install it and he put a level foundation of cement and 2x4s the attached the base after construction to the base. hope this helps.I love my KETER!

I am sorry--in seeing your question further, I think it depends on how big a hole is in the cement umbrella stand. It need to have a good solid footing and a deep hole is needed.

There was an additional one to two inches of slack in wire. Just enough to aid during installation but not to hinder operation post installation.

If you install correctly you get very little vibration. It does take more concrete than it says though. Overall, my son and I are thrilled with the system.

You may need two if your area is a wide range and has solid masonry or other type of construction. There may be a dead zone that you need to cover.

The pole comes with a tube that should be installed in the ground in cement. The kit comes with instructions very easy to install.
