The Countless Designs of Wall Water Fountains
The Countless Designs of Wall Water Fountains Small verandas or courtyards are a perfect place to install wall fountains since they add style to an area with limited space. When looking at the many types of outdoor wall fountains available including traditional, antique, modern, or Asian, you are certain to find one best suited to your design ideas. Your tastes dictate the type you buy so while there may not be a prefabricated fountain to satisfy you, you do have the option of having a custom made one.There are two specific styles of fountains you can buy: mounted and free-standing. You can install a mounted wall fountain because they are small and self-contained. Fountains of this kind need to be light, therefore, they are usually made of resin (resembling stone) or fiberglass. Sizable free-standing wall fountains, often referred to as floor fountains, have their basins positioned on the floor and a smooth side leaning on a wall. Water features such as these are typically manufactured of cast stone and have no weight limitations.
It is a good idea to integrate a custom-made fountain into a new or existing wall, something often suggested by landscape professionals. Placing the basin against the wall and installing all the plumbing work requires a professional mason to do it correctly. The wall will need to have a spout or fountain mask incorporated into it. A custom-built wall fountain blends into the landscape instead of standing out because it was a later addition, which contributes to a unified look.
