Aerators - Aerators provide a spray of water into the pool, similar to a fountain, but usually pointed at an angle rather than straight up. In hot climates, aerators will help to cool the water a little. As an added benefit, children love to play in and around aerators.
Fountains & Bubble Jets - Fountains are a very simple and pleasing concept that can be placed almost anywhere, including in the pool, in the spa, on steps, ledges or a beach entry, or in a pond or catch basin next to the pool. A "bubble jet" fountain provides a little softer and more "bubbly" look compared to a traditional fountain. Children have lots of fun playing with fountains.
Across-Pool Features – Sometimes a pool owner can benefit from what we call across-pool features. These features can be functional, like stepping stones/pads or they can be aesthetic…tying into the architecture of your home and yard.
In-water Tables, Benches and Lounge Chairs - In-water tables, chairs, stools and benches provide a wonderful resting spot for reading, snacking, even playing "land" games. The wise homeowner will have an umbrella built in to their table, to offer some shade without having to leave the pool.
Jump & Tanning Platforms - Safer than a diving board, a platform built in the style of the pool itself can offer many hours of entertainment for kids. When the kids are away, it becomes a functional tanning platform, close to the water.
Fire Effects – Fire and water together can create an incredible backyard ambiance. Today’s fire bowls and fire pits incorporate full automation and run on low pressure gas and low voltage.
Lighting - LED & Fiber Optics With LED lighting and fiber optics, your pool can become an entertaining array of with endlessly changing colors at night. For an added dimension of excitement, your lights can be connected to your sound system for a professional sound-activated light show. Fiber optics can also be applied to fountains and water arches, creating the illusion of colored water.
Mosaics - Mosaics can offer a true signature design to your pool, spa or decking. From artistic designs to playful creatures to company logos to names or clever sayings - The possibilities are endless.
Rain Curtain - A rain curtain provides a wall of rain drops (as opposed to the full sheet of water that you would see with a scupper or "sheer descent" water curtain.) Makes a great visual separation between pools and arbors, cabanas or grottos.
Scuppers - Scuppers are similar to water curtains, but with a lot more flexibility in design and character. For example, you might have a 4 inch wide scupper pouring out of a fiery wok, or you might have a very long scupper, many feet in length along one side of your pool. Scuppers can be straight or curved, and of almost any height. Grouping several scuppers together can create a very appealing effect.
Vanishing Edges - Also known as "Negative edge" or "Zero Edge", a Vanishing Edge offers the illusion that the pool (or spa) water is pouring over the edge of the pool into another body of water, or perhaps down a hillside. Vanishing edge requires exact design and workmanship standards at all stages of construction, and should not be entrusted to anyone but experienced professionals.
Water Arches - Water Arches are smooth flowing fountains that shoot clean streams of water out over the pool surface. Very attractive to look at and listen to, and a delight for children to play in.
Waterfalls - With waterfalls, the sky's the limit. They can be small or large, fancy or natural, gentle trickles or "Niagara Falls". They can also be quite gaudy, unattractive and leaky if not done properly by a trained professional.
Reflection Pool/Wet Deck - When all sides of a pool or spa are “vanishing edge”, you have what is known as a reflection pool or "wet deck". In this case, there are no visible edges to the pool or spa. Water flows over the edges on all sides, into a hidden catch basin. A stunning visual effect, this is the most difficult of all vanishing edge designs, and should not be entrusted to anyone but experienced professionals (like Euro Pools) who specialize in vanishing edge design and have won international awards in this category, latest in 2010.
Exercise Options – Often times a pool can be used to get well needed aerobic exercise and/or muscle massage. In coordination with Speck Pumps, Euro Pools offers a wide variety of swim jet packages for long distance swimming with no annoying turns. With a massage hose, the jets can also be used to soothe your aching muscles.
