The Wonder of Water Descent

Robert FosterMay 2024
Water Descent Feature

What Are Water Descent Features?

Water descent features create smooth, sheet-like waterfalls that cascade into your pool. Also known as sheer descents or scuppers, these elegant features add both visual and auditory appeal to any pool design.

Why Choose Water Descent Features?

Unlike traditional rock waterfalls, water descent features offer a modern, minimalist aesthetic. The smooth water sheets create a glass-like curtain effect, especially stunning when lit with LED lighting at night.

Popular Water Descent Options

  • Sheer Descents: Wall-mounted features producing smooth water sheets
  • Scuppers: Architectural spouts creating defined water streams
  • Rain Curtains: Multiple thin streams creating rainfall effect
  • LED Illuminated: Color-changing lights integrated into the feature

Design Considerations

Water descent features work best on raised walls or spa spillways. They can be customized in various widths and heights to match your pool's design aesthetic.
