Many times a week I get asked about a custom water  fountain that can sit on a counter or ledge.  I suggest you consider the Crystal Falls Counter Fountain. This fountain can be made into, not only the four sizes noted on the website, but also just about any size you would like as a custom fountain.

The waterfall frame can be made of stainless steel or powder coated any color you would like.  As a custom waterfall we can also build this in copper or acrylic frame.  The waterfall face material is clear glass, again as a custom water feature we can use colored glass, textured glass, mirror or acrylic.

You may want to add lights to the fountain or an auto fill and drain.

If you are looking for the perfect custom counter fountain this may be it.

When dividing rooms many people use a custom floor fountain to replace a wall they have in there home of business. This can allow you to still have the privacy of a wall with the relaxing enviroment of a water fountain. As you can see from the pictures below you can have clear glass so you cab see throught the fountain or a colored textured glass to give you the privacy you want.

The custom wall fountain can be sunken into the floor/wall so you do not see the lower water basin or as the other two pictures show the lower water basin can be uncovered for all to see and still look great.

You can add your logo to the water fountain and lights if you prefer.

Stunning custom water fountains can make a difference in your business and personal life.

What is face material? It is where the water runs on the water fountain. What are some of the most popular face material?

Lets start with the slate. There is lightweight slate wall fountains and solid slate wall fountains.  The major difference between these two slates are the weight. The solid slate is about 1″ to 1 1/2″ thick. it will weigh about 120 to 300 pounds depending on the size. The light weight slate is a thin slice of the solid slate, 1/8″  to 1/16″ thick. This is then attached to a hard backing board. From the front of the fountain this slate will look like the solid. Just the sides look different.

 

Next week have Glass or Mirror wall fountains and Floor fountains with glass or mirror. This is a smooth slick surface that was can shine on. The glass or mirror comes in many colors and textures too.

Acrylic face material has been exciting. The water just dances on the surface.

When building a custom waterfall you have two decisions on the material you use. What material should you use for the frame and what material for the waterfall face.

 I will tackle the frame material options now.  The most popular are the copper and stainless steel frames. These are standard material on many water features.

 Gaining in popularity has been the powder coating of the frame. When powder coating you can make the frame almost any color you would like.  You can make this match just about any décor you would like.

If you’ve ever been to a doctor’s office in an upscale clinic, or sat in the waiting room of a hospital, you’ve probably seen a free standing custom floor fountain. These fountains are installed because they tend to stifle excess high-frequency sounds, which leads to a calm and relaxing atmosphere. This is particular valuable in waiting rooms. The fountains also provide additional moisture in the air, so you gain more humidity control in a given environment, without the obnoxious fan sounds of blown air based humidifiers. If there is a downside to a freestanding floor fountain, it is that these wonderful decorations tend to take up quite a lot of space, which sometimes necessitates designing or outright building a room entirely around the fountain itself; as you can probably guess, this is neither a cheap nor quick procedure.

A fountain gives most of the benefits of a freestanding one and it provides cover to conceal undesired noise pollution. It provides greater humidity and it makes the room easier on people who are in there: it’s calming and relaxing. Particularly if you want to give some privacy to your customers as they come up to your service desk, a fountain is a good choice because it can give a bit of visual separation and make other things easier on them.

Enter custom wall fountains. These water fountains are remarkably easy to install, any blank wall will do, and they are relatively inexpensive additions to any home or office décor..

The wall fountains aren’t just for the office; they can be used in home decoration as well. In the home, they’re often used to close off an overly large room, as well as the humidity and sound dampening effects mentioned above. They can also be used as pet watering devices as pets love drinking from an open, running source of water, and a fountain can let them drink to their heart’s content.

Another benefit of water fountains is indoor health. Water fountains emit negative ions, which are particles that neutralize airborne contaminants and bioaerosols in the atmosphere, which reduces respiratory problems and causes dust to settle rather than float around. Are you the type of person who feels congested and stuffy in winter, or does excess dust in your home make you sneeze? If so, a wall mounted fountain may help keep your allergies in check.

When it comes time to install your wall waterfall, you must first consider average foot traffic – how many people travel through an area. Improve your décor with a water fountain

Water fountains have symbolized qualities like wealth and prosperity for many years. Thousands of years ago, the Chinese masters who developed the art of feng shui realized the spiritual and health benefits of flowing water inside the home or at the workplace. Water fountains have become the central meeting places in towns and cities alike and are some of the most memorable landmarks.

Even science has pointed out that the sound of running water creates a calming effect and a sense of well being. With custom indoor water fountains you have a means to increase the humidity inside to eliminate dry air. Outdoor water fountains are the central attractions for famous cities and quite a number of ornate gardens. Both indoor and outdoor water fountains combine attractive outward appearances and genuine health improvements.

You may be interested in knowing how water fountains can be therapeutic. It is a good question that should be explored. Take a look at the benefits outlined below if you want to put in your own water fountains.

Essentially, indoor water fountains can function just like an air purifier or humidifier. The fountain purifies the air because it is a moving source of water. The motion of the water produces negative ions that enter the air. Once the negative ions touch dust particles and smoke they bond with the elements, removing them from the air.

As scientists have spent time investigating negative ions, they have uncovered effects on the brain chemistry that generate a sense of peace and increase alertness. These are effects of water fountains that were already understood by those who practiced feng shui. This means that for thousands of years before science made its so-called discoveries about water fountains, the masters of feng shui were benefiting from the therapeutic effects of running water.

It has been shown that the sound of running water can relax a person. Once you have indoor water fountains running inside your house, you may begin to notice shifts in your mood quickly. There are many CDs and tapes that include the sounds of flowing water among other things to produce positive emotional effects.

After some reading, it should be clearer that water fountains possess real therapeutic benefits. They also add beauty to your home garden or interior design. Since water fountains can be an asset, you may want to have one installed to create a stronger design in the home and garden. Water fountains can produce real changes in one’s health and well-being.

Custom indoor water fountains have been used for hundreds of years to represent health and wealth all around the world. Many years ago, fountains could only be found outside, in walkways and gardens of the rich. They created a relaxing atmosphere that evoked good feelings of prosperity because of their cost and difficulty to install. Then, the fountain was moved indoors for the rich, with wealthy people displaying them in homes, and businesses and luxury hotels displaying them in their lobbies. This is still often the case, but it no longer has to be limited to the wealthiest.

 

With indoor water fountains being more affordable than ever before, and with installation being easier than ever, you can easily find a water fountain that will work in your home and that you can afford. One of the most popular types of fountains to use indoors is the wall fountain. This type of fountain is easy to install and mounts flush to the wall. They are made of metal that is crafted in thin sheets and then shaped to create the design of the fountain. Copper or stainless steel can be used and each will create its own look. Copper has a more old-world look to it, and its color is accentuated by the water flowing through it. The copper will discolor over time creating a beautiful patina that will give the fountain a classic yet modern look. Stainless steel is opposite, and it will always look the same as it does the day you purchase it. This type of steel not only resists discoloring, but it can also withstand harsh weather, making this a great material for an outdoor wall fountain as well.

 

Tabletop fountains are an excellent consideration for those who don’t have any wall space to spare, because these are small enough to literally fit in any room. Any desk, table, or shelf will work, as long as it is a flat surface. These create a spa-like atmosphere in any room because of their materials, which typically include natural items such as pebbles, stone and other materials that are provided by nature.

Indoor fountains have long been a symbol of affluence and good health in societies around the world. Not only do these objects serve as elaborate decorative pieces, they also have a tendency to purify the air in any environment and relieve stress. Get more information about wall fountains.

As water fountains are becoming more common in the home, the number of styles and designs is increasing at a fast pace. Regardless of personal interior design tastes, whether this is contemporary or rustic, a water fountain offers an stunning way of augmenting the surrounding décor. As well as the different styles and designs currently available on the market, the number of places in your home that could benefit from one of these fountains is large as well.

Let’s look at the floor fountains first. Floor standing fountains are great for putting into those empty spaces that you would otherwise struggle to fill with something. As with most fountains, these come in many shapes, sizes, great designs and styles so whether it is a small space to fill or just adding to a larger room, there will definitely be a floor standing fountain available to you.

Fountains have the unique ability to combine different materials, which therefore give it a great ability to blend in with any design. The actual combinations and/or choices you have for this mix-and-match is huge. The materials can include anything from stainless steel, glass, copper, slate, marble and stone; and this is just to name a few. They can all combine wonderfully to produce a stunning masterpiece of pure elegance.

One of the really popular designs at the moment is the wall hanging fountain. In fact, the rate at which these are becoming popular means that they will soon be surpassing traditional wall-hung pictures as the most popular wall decoration. The great thing about these fountains is that they are totally inconspicuous; meaning literally any wall that has some space is an ideal location for them.

An indoor water fountain has the great ability of ensuring the home decor will blend perfectly with each other, making any room the envy of all that behold it. But don’t be fooled, having a lovely indoor water fountain is not only about the visual aspect. The sound of bubbling water is probably the most relaxing and soothing sounds known to man and it offers a background ambience like no other. Whether you are entertaining guests or are just sitting alone reading a book in a conservatory, the trickling sound of background water will enthral and captivate you, allowing you to sit back and relax.

A fountain can also help to improve the air quality of any room by adding to the humidity. As long as the water basin remains full, you can experience the good health that comes with good air quality.
