How Interactive Water Features Work

Interactive water features vary from very basic splash parks with brightly colored nozzles designed for children"s play to the more sophisticated water features which have multiple uses. The nozzles are suspended in a surround (dry deck or suspended slab area) and water drains through the surround into a holding tank. From there the water is pumped to the nozzles via another holding tank. Water quality needs to be strictly monitored. Controllers and sequencing devices enhance the interactive play experience in water play environment. The play elements may be turned on for a fixed time and can be controlled by a sequencing programmer.
