Looking for a way to add some pizzazz to your backyard, swimming pool, or spa this Spring or Summer but want to avoid a major renovation? A beautiful, serene, extra point of interest by way of a water feature can enhance your backyard oasis and add an art-like element that makes you daydream about spending time by your stunning, relaxing new water feature in your beautiful, peaceful backyard.

There are many types of water features that can be used to enhance your overall backyard experience. In addition to the visual exquisiteness of your new water feature, you can look forward to the peaceful, soothing sounds of running water. Trying to wrap your head around which kind of water feature is right for you? We’ve included this glossary of water features as originally shared by Luxury Pools to help you learn more about the options available to you.

Fountain Bubbler, Foam Jet, Sun Jet

This water feature shoots up out of the pool floor and falls back on itself, like a mini geyser and is usually placed on a Baja shelf (a shallow sun ledge or extended first step).

Deck Jet, Fountain Spitter

A deck jet is an inexpensive option that shoots a narrow stream of water from the deck into the pool. The stream contains air and water sprays slightly apart in droplets.

Laminar Jet

A more expensive jet that produces a steady, forceful arc of bubble-free water, creating the illusion of a glass tube. It can be hidden in flowerbeds and is often lit by LEDs to create a colorful visual effect at night.

Sheetfall

As the name implies, this water feature has sheet of water that flows down from a thin, flattened spillway.

Sconce

A decorative object mounted on a wall from which a narrow stream of water flows.

Scupper

This feature sends water across a small ledge before falling down into the pool.

Rainfall Curtain

A series of pencil-like streams of water rain down from an elevated beam to create a curtain of water.

Rock Waterfall

Usually seen with tropical, lagoon-style pools, this type of waterfall varies in size and complexity. This feature sends water cascading from above and flowing down the wall.
