FOUNTAIN DESIGN AND PRICING:

Determining fountain prices is dependent on many variables including size, complexity, equipment requirements, job access and requirements for power/water supplies and connections. Specialty Fountains has simplified this process by offering our standard pools available in a variety of shapes, sizes, details and up to 50 different cast concrete colors. This is achieved using our unique cast in place fountain pool wall system. You may arrive at an approximate cost by selecting a fountain pool size and fountain statue that is complimentary. Keep in mind that the fountain statue must be in scale to the pool selected in order to control splash and loss of water due to high wind. In addition to fountain statuary, there are many different types of water displays utilizing fountain spray jets. These may include foam jets, spray rings, clear stream jets or any number of jets in combination.

Other design/cost considerations include total horsepower of re-circulation pumps and total wattage of underwater lights. You should also keep in mind access and distance to water and electrical supplies. Always consult a licensed electrician and plumber and follow all applicable codes. Make sure power supplies have ground fault circuit interrupters ( G.F.C.I.) and water supplies have a back-flow preventer. Proper lighting of the water feature is critical to the finished product. Underwater lighting of the fountain/pool is often the smallest part of your overall budget. It is also the most dramatic part of your fountain. Most commercial fountains require 115 v. quartz halogen underwater lighting while most residential fountains may utilize low voltage underwater lighting. We will be glad to help you with design and can provide you with cost for the fountain components including pool wall, statuary, pump, underwater lighting, etc. We also offer complete installation less electrical and water supplies, connections and permits.
