Sheer descents falling from a raised glass tile wall into the pool
Water features and lighting

Decide them before the shell.

Sheer descents, bubblers, deck jets, lights and fire all run on plumbing, conduit or gas lines that go in before the gunite. They are easy to plan in and hard to add later.

What we build

Four ways to add sound and light

Pick the ones that fit the yard. Each one is a line of plumbing, conduit or gas, so the time to choose is at design.

Raised glass tile wall with sheer descents and a cabana at the far end

Sheer descents

A thin sheet of water from a slot in a raised tile wall. It gives the pool a back edge, and the sound covers road noise and the neighbors.

Tanning ledge with a bubbler, a spa and sheer descents

Bubblers

Low jets set into a tanning ledge a few inches under the surface. They put movement in the shallow end, and kids sit on them.

Arcing deck jets and sheer descents from a raised wall

Deck jets

Small nozzles that throw an arc of water into the pool from the deck or the top of a wall. Simple, and they make the pool look alive.

Gas fire line on a raised tile wall above red lit sheer descents at night

Lighting and fire

Color LED lights in the pool, the spa and the water features, and a gas fire line along the top of a raised wall. Fire needs a gas line, so it gets run with the pool utilities.

Worth knowing

What features cost to run

  • Features need pump flow, so some get their own pump or a valve to switch them on
  • Water in the air evaporates faster, which shows up in a Texas summer
  • A timer or automation keeps them running when you are out there, not all day
Common questions
Can I add a water feature after the pool is built?

Some things can be added later, but sheer descents, bubblers and lights all need plumbing or conduit that goes in before the shell. Adding them after usually means draining the pool and cutting into the shell or the deck. Decide at design.

Do water features use more water?

Yes. Anything that throws water into the air or over a wall increases evaporation, and in a Texas summer you will notice it. Running features on a timer instead of all day helps.

Angi puts a pool waterfall at $1,500 to $5,000 and pool lights at $200 to $625 each nationally. More on the pool cost page.

Planning the features?

We walk the yard, talk through options and come back with real numbers.
