Types and styles of pool fountains and waterfalls

There are many types of pool fountains and waterfalls in New Zealand and some of the most popular include the following:

Rock waterfall

Rock waterfalls are the most traditional water feature you can install. This type of inground pool waterfall has a classic look that can easily transform your pool into a relaxing oasis.

Water fountain

Pool fountains are a versatile choice, especially for people with children. It can also add charm to your pool and create a relaxing atmosphere.

Sheer waterfall

These pool waterfalls feature a minimalistic design. They’re more common in contemporary homes, although they can easily work with any type or style.

Rain curtain

Rain curtains are known for their versatility, as they can be installed anywhere you’d like, including walls and pergolas. They also make a great swimming pool fountain.

Deck jets

Unlike fountains, deck jets shoot a narrow stream of continuously flowing water. They’re typically paired with LED pool lighting and other accessories, creating a modern look.

Sconces

Sconces are one of the most inexpensive pool water features. Similar to sheer waterfalls, they consist of a small opening that can be mounted on the wall.

The advantages of high-quality pool fountains and waterfalls

Pool waterfalls and fountains are one of the latest exciting trends in home improvement in  New Zealand and their popularity is backed by a long list of advantages. A swimming pool fountain can be incredibly fun for children and grown-ups. They are distinctive and unique and the soothing sound of water is relaxing, especially after a long day.

How to choose pool fountains and waterfalls that are right for you

There are a few aspects to take into consideration when choosing a pool waterfall or fountain to ensure you make the best choice for you. Style is a strong factor in this, considering how prominent they’ll be in your pool area. It’s best to think about aesthetics with respect to the wider surroundings which includes your pool decor, architectural and design elements and any nearby natural features. Your budget is another factor as the price range can vary widely, part of which comes down to size and materials used. Making sure you choose a reputable supplier and an experienced installer is also key as shortcuts, either way, could lead to problems down the line. For an above ground pool waterfall, confirm that the pool edge, surrounding substrate and water return can support the installation before selecting its finish.

Can I add a waterfall to an existing pool?

Yes. However, we always recommend hiring an expert for a project like this. Installing an inground pool waterfall requires analysing the pool’s masonry, drainage, filtration, and pumping to create a personalised solution. Luckily, you can find professionals in New Zealand through ArchiPro.

Does a pool waterfall need its own pump?

Waterfalls should have their own pumps. The bigger they are, the better the pumps should be, as they move larger amounts of water against gravity. However, smaller waterfalls can be paired with your existing pumps, especially if they have a high flow rate.

Does a waterfall aerate a pool?

Aerating increases the oxygen levels in the water, resulting in a higher pH and lowering carbon dioxide concentration. While they are special aerators available, you can achieve the same results using a waterfall or a fountain.
