New Poolscape



Client requested us to design a backyard for a very active family. The project include a custom freeform pool/spa/water features, and Techo-bloc Aberdeen paver pool deck, large pavilion/bar/stone fireplace/comfortable lounge area for viewing movies on the flat screen tv, and bathroom hidden behind the fireplace. A gas fire pit, large Fiberon Ipe composite deck, outdoor lighting, irrigation, and landscaping complete the package.

A Rain Curtain is a type of water feature element which adds another dimension to a poolscape. How the Rain Curtain works is very similar to a Sheer Descent waterfall, an ABS one piece trough is installed with the Rainfall opening, water is than pumped into the trough, and depending on the distance & sheeting you want to project, this will determined the GPM required for the water flow. Though the cost of the Rain Curtains are on the higher bracket of water features, the result will be an eye catching focal point for your pool or spa.
