Garden fountains differ with the sizes, power, type of nozzles. The price of them depends on the same parameters. The most inexpensive is the static look. Interactive and with special effects have quite high price.
Garden fountains can decorate any country site. They allow to create special microclimate, bring special lyrical note in registration of garden.
Versions
Decorative options are established under the open sky. The hydrotechnical design can differ depending on the sizes of fountain and ways of giving water outside. They are subdivided on cascade and jet. The arrangement of water object, pump output depends on this parameter.
There are also other options:
- They have no outdoor pool, water flows down in the accumulative tank.
- For their work water from those reservoirs where the fountain is established is used.
- With special effects. These models concern some of the most expensive. Are equipped with electronic guidance system, can change color of streams and power of fluid supply depending on music.
- Are supplemented with control board by means of which color and height of streams is regulated.
The most popular types
One of inexpensive and simple in management is the static jet fountain. The powerful stream leaves nozzle, is sprayed and thin streams flows down down. For obtaining similar effect on pipe the funneled nozzle with the spray is established. It is formed the direction of water stream. Such options happen also in mini execution.
"Bell"
Such options can be met on big country sites. For their construction on the center of reservoir the design with the powerful pump and nozzle pipe is established. On upper part of the last spherical disks are fixed. The more the gap also is more powerful water supply, the dispersion radius is more.
"Fish tail"
Is established in the yards where the spacious recreation area is organized. Thanks to special form of nozzles, water comes out thin powerful streams under different corner. Such options are often equipped with LED lighting that allows to gain unusual effect in night-time.
"Ring"
Such street fountain with reservoir has difficult design. In its basis there is pipe bent by ring. In it openings for exit of streams are made equally spaced. Both pipe ends are brought to normal pressure pipe. Special guides are inserted into each opening. Sprays are in addition used to different effects:
- single;
- level;
- revolving objects.
The last allow to gain amazing effect – side streams will twist in original spirals.
"Water wall"
With use of special nozzle the smooth water stream which evenly flows in vertical plane is created. The lack of noise and the minimum spraying belongs to advantages of such look. The similar system effectively looks in the open air or in rooms.
"Tulip"
Such country reservoir allows to create cone-shaped picture. Water currents move from below-up, creating flower form. In some versions two tiers of the flowing liquid are created. Such versions belong to fountains of the average size, can be complemented with LED illumination.
Tiffany
Difficult fountain in which "Bell" and "Fish tail" are integrated. Such composition includes vertically directed jet elements on the center and inclined planes on perimeter. This option will perfectly fit into the hermetic forms created from dark granite.
In modern practice of production of garden fountains both classical natural materials, and artificial are used. Granite, for example, differs in durability, well transfers temperature drops. Polystone replaces granite and marble. This artificial material is easier, more plastic. Thanks to it the reservoir can have any form. The most inexpensive are concrete and cement mixes. However they are short-lived, subject to appearance of erosion.
