Water & Fire Features

Choose what you want the space to do.

Calm movement

Sheer descents, scuppers, water bowls and spillways introduce sound and motion without overpowering the pool.

Warm atmosphere

Fire bowls, pillars and tables extend the visual life of the backyard well beyond daylight.

Signature contrast

Paired flame and flowing water create the strongest focal point for raised walls, pool edges and outdoor rooms.

Interactive water

Deck jets and bubblers bring movement to tanning ledges and deck edges while adding energy during the day.

Designed into the project

Water & Fire Features

Beautiful features begin behind the finish.

A feature should look effortless because the difficult decisions were handled early. Water flow, equipment capacity, drainage, bonding, power, gas supply, clearances, wind, automation, winterization and service access all influence the right selection. We plan those details before tile, coping and decking make changes difficult.

More than an upgrade

Water & Fire Features

Build the feeling customers picture when they imagine a custom pool.

A stronger focal point

Draw the eye to a raised wall, spa, ledge or outdoor room and make the pool feel intentionally designed from every view.

Day-to-night appeal

Water adds movement in daylight. Flame, accent lighting and reflection keep the backyard visually alive after sunset.

Sound and privacy

Properly planned moving water can soften nearby noise and create a more secluded atmosphere around the pool.

A truly custom result

Shape, finish, placement and effect can coordinate with your tile, coping, decking, architecture and landscape palette.

Water & Fire Features

Built-in features beyond the bowl.

Sheer descents

A clear sheet of water from a raised wall creates a clean, modern line and controllable sound.

Scuppers

Metal or stone outlets create defined streams and pair naturally with raised bond beams and masonry.

Spillways

Connect a raised spa, basin or water bowl to the pool with a deliberate cascade.

Rock waterfalls

Naturalistic stonework brings sound, shade and a landscape-driven focal point to the pool.

Rain curtains

A line of falling water can define a structure, pergola edge or dramatic passage into the pool.

Planter + water bowls

Combine planting and water in one feature to soften architecture and connect the pool to the landscape.

Water & Fire Features

Six decisions shape the finished feature.

Placement

Sight lines, wind, splash, clearances and symmetry determine where the feature belongs.

Water flow

Pump capacity, plumbing size, valves and balance affect sound, projection and spillway quality.

Fuel + ignition

Natural gas or propane, manual or electronic ignition, power and controls must be selected together.

Materials

GFRC, concrete, copper, metal and stone each create a different weight, texture and aging profile.

Automation

Compatible controls can simplify feature scheduling, valve operation, lighting and selected ignition systems.

Seasonal care

Indiana freeze-thaw conditions make drainage, winterization and accessible service points essential.

Common questions

Questions

Designed with the details in mind.

Have a feature saved already? Send it with a photo or plan of the backyard and we can start with the right questions.

Create the focal point

Can these features be added to an existing pool?

Sometimes. Feasibility depends on the pool structure, deck access, plumbing, equipment capacity, utilities, feature location and desired finish work. An on-site evaluation is the best starting point.

Can water and fire features use pool automation?

Many water features can be controlled with compatible valves and automation. Fire-feature control depends on the selected ignition system and applicable requirements. Compatibility is confirmed during specification.

How many bowls should a pool have?

There is no universal number. One feature can create an intentional focal point, while a balanced pair can reinforce symmetry. Pool scale, wall length, sight lines and water-flow requirements guide the decision.

What materials are available?

SCP’s professional catalog includes options in concrete, GFRC, copper, steel, aluminum, glass and other metals, with numerous shapes, colors and finishes. Availability varies by manufacturer and product.

When should features be selected?

As early as possible. Structural support, plumbing, gas, electrical, automation, drainage and finish transitions are easier to coordinate before construction begins.
