Waterfall wall pool plan8/3/2023 ![]() We talk a lot about our corner units and how easy they are, but are also always impressed when a contractor does a well executed outside corner miter cut we see in this project. The ceramic tiles will essentially be maintenance free whereas the stone would need sealed in a waterline application, and by maintaining the waterline tile consistent all the way around the pool there was not awkward vertical transition point between the much thinner ceramic tile and the thicker stacked stone panels that would have needed to be addressed. The tile in this application is a standard 5x5 ceramic pool tile that is nicely color matched to the brown and grey earth tones of the Ochre XL Stacked Stone Panels. Norstone Rock Panels can be used in submerged applications, but from a design standpoint and an ongoing maintenance standpoint it makes a lot more sense to use the same waterline tile as the rest of the pool. ![]() That higher elevation really accentuates the waterfalls and makes that an impressive feature of the stacked stone pool water feature.Ī subtle but important part of the design of this stacked stone pool water feature is the decision to keep the waterline tile the same all around the entire pool and opt not to use the stacked stone all the way down to the waterline. This multi step design not only looks great, but it really creates more elevation contrast than you might be able to reasonably create with a single level raised beam feature. The lowest level introduces the stacked stone above the waterline tile and then the two highest levels step up and include beautiful waterfalls that create a sheer curtain of water into the pool. The beam actually has three separate levels stretching almost the entire length of the back of this pool. The first thing that really catches our eye about this stacked stone pool water feature is the design of the raised beam itself. ![]() Let’s take a quick look at this project that used our Ochre XL Rock Panels and see why and how it’s a great use of stacked stone for a pool water feature. This week’s featured project is a great inspiration as to how stacked stone can be used as part of a raised beam project. Getting started early makes sure that come peak summertime you’re going to be relaxing in a floating lounge instead of looking at a big hole in your backyard. Whether Spring is in full swing or maybe where you are Winter is still firmly in place, there’s no better time than the first couple months of the year to start planning and executing on a backyard pool project. Get Ready for Spring with a Stacked Stone Pool Water Feature
