Pool Water Features

What better way to increase the tranquility of your backyard oasis than with the addition of a stylish waterfall or fountain? Imagine the drama one of these unique water features can provide. As an elegant addition to your pool, a fountain or waterfall can create a different, quite entertaining atmosphere.

Water features come in a never-ending variety. In the residential pool arena, the most recognized water features are waterfalls. Water either cascades down through rocks or other hardscaping products or falls unimpeded in a sheer descent style. Fountains are gaining in popularity in the residential pool industry. Just as waterfalls do, fountains instantly make your pool more attractive and add the sound of moving water to your backyard.

Other water features include vertical features, fountains that provide a visually exciting display and uniquely designed waterfalls that complement the overall design of the pool environment. Imagine a cascading stream, a bubbling fountain, a sheer waterwall or a dazzling spray. There are even laminar jet effect fountains where the water is so well-controlled, it looks like an unbroken glass rod entering the pool virtually sound and splashfree. These captivating features all offer the soothing water movement that is so welcome after a hard day. They can also mask unwanted noise and create the feeling that you are relaxing in your own private resort.

Water features are not only attractive, but they are therapeutic as well. In the same way firelight can captivate us, moving water can catch our eye. The sound calms and soothes as the flowing water rises and falls. This is why many pool owners choose to add water features to their pools. They want to turn an ordinary pool into an experience that is enjoyed everyday.
