Water features are an important component of a custom home. Very often, they are the focal point of the home facade, main entrance, backyard or even the interior of the home. As a focal point of the home, water features need to work with, and complement the surrounding area. Therefore, water features require special attention. Attention to small details, such as the type of nozzles or falls to be used, the amount of noise it will produce, the lighting interaction with the surround hardscape and landscape, the water behavior, and it's reaction to the elements it will be exposed to, all play a big roll in designing the ideal water feature. All these factors, and more should be taken into account to achieve a worry free water feature, that requires minimal maintenance, for the utmost enjoyment by home owners and guests.
