In this video I'm going to show you how you should not build a water wall, how you should not do the water distribution and the overflow channel.

The first problem here, as you can see, is that the back wall is very low and the water can escape at the back too, if you produce here more waves. And then the second thing is that we just have a couple of metal plates with holes inside this overflow channel, inside the gutter. But the feeding comes from the middle. So, if this is the complete overflow channel we have a feeding from the middle and on that feeding there sits a small cap. So, this is this one and this cap causes the water only to escape into two directions, so we get a venturi effect which means that we produce a lot of pressure here due to the water which comes to the sides. But we have low pressure here in the middle and according to that, the water does not flow over the overflow channel here in this middle area, and...

Here we have a short video about how we fix the threads of a Thread Fountain Waterfall.

This is an older video of mine, showing a Glass Water Wall in a Wellness Area.

Here you can see why you do need a dark background for Thread Fountains.

Probably the highest Thread Fountain in Europe with 11,2m total hight. You can see it live in Linz, Austria!

Please see this video of a nice thread fountain in a Gym. It was ordered to do something against the dust and sweat smells in the room. And it did.

So, when you build a water wall or an indoor waterfall then you want to use a water additive against germs and algae, but you should take care and be very careful to test the water additive, because it might happen that your water additive is changing the surface tension of the water and then you can have two effects, which are pretty bad.

One effect can be that  you will not be able to create a water film across the whole glass plate, like for example in this water wall. Here you can see we have a very nice complete water film covering the whole glass plate with harmonically distributed waves. So if you use the wrong water additive and increase the water tension of the water then you get such streams which then do not cover the complete glass plate and they're also pretty loud and they create splashing.

Then the opposite of that is if you have a water additive against algae and germs which is destroying the tension, the...

Yes, it is really true !
Daniela E. Schenker, she wrote a book about the meaning of water features in Feng Shui and one of her chapters is covering water features in the bedroom and she says, if you have a water feature or a water wall in your bedroom, then you will make better love.

So, how is that possible ? Well, maybe you know or maybe you don't know, but actually water features make you relax. So, watching the water flow and maybe also when you listen to the voice of the floating water, you relax. And when women relax, they can enjoy making love much more. So, this is the reason why water features and water walls can help improve your love life, because especially women, when they are relaxed, they can enjoy it more.

So, well, I guess it's true. Maybe you also can imagine it's true. So, let me show you where you should place a water feature in your bedroom and where you should not place it. Let's say this is your bedroom,...

In this video I'm going to show you how we have planned a water feature in the backyard for a customer.

Here you can see the basic set up, already with all the covers but just up front, down here, we have a tank. Here we would have the pump. The pump would direct the water through a 32 millimeters diameter hose or pipe to the top of the water wall and then the water would be distributed in an overflow channel, which I will show you in a minute, and then the water would go across those natural stone tiles, being collected here in a bottom tank and then moving forward back to the tank, which is digged below the grass. So, this is the main circle.

Then you can see here an overflow channel made of stainless steel which is supported by 2 PVC sub distributions. So, this 32 diameter pipe is then divided into two pipes and each would have a PVC sub distribution. This sub distribution is very clearly explained in our Glass Waterwall...

For todays blog post we took a time lapse of how we setup a thread fountain water feature for one of our customers. Please enjoy.
