Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Caribbean glass tile ideal for Texas pools?
Caribbean glass tile like the Aquabella CB-661 used in the Marable project offers exceptional durability and color retention under intense Texas sun. The glass composition resists fading, staining, and chemical damage while providing jewel-like brilliance that enhances water clarity. The Caribbean blue colorway creates a tropical resort atmosphere that complements both contemporary and traditional architecture. In the Marable pool, this glass tile paired with Arctic White pebble plaster creates striking contrast and visual depth throughout the swimming area.
How do sheer descents enhance the swimming experience?
Dual sheer descents in the Berry project create cascading water curtains that add kinetic energy and ambient sound to the swimming area. Positioned along the pool wall, these features energize the water surface while providing gentle acoustic texture across the outdoor living space. Sheer descents also improve water circulation and aeration, contributing to overall water quality. Combined with the UV/O3 sanitization system and LED pool lighting, these water features create dramatic visual and sensory effects that evolve beautifully from daylight hours through evening entertaining.
Why choose pebble plaster over standard pool finishes?
Pebble plaster like the Arctic White finish in the Marable pool offers superior longevity and stain resistance compared to traditional marcite plaster. The natural pebble aggregates create a slip-resistant texture that enhances safety while providing comfortable surfaces for bare feet. The Arctic White colorway brightens the entire pool interior, making the water appear more inviting while amplifying the Aquabella Caribbean CB-661 glass tile's blue tones. This finish represents a smart long-term investment for active families who want both beauty and durability in their outdoor living space.
How does limestone coping handle Texas weather conditions?
Buff Lueders limestone coping performs exceptionally well in Texas heat cycles, maintaining comfortable surface temperatures while resisting cracking and spalling. The clipped edge detail used in the Marable project provides clean architectural lines while ensuring proper drainage away from the pool structure. This native Texas stone develops an attractive patina over time while requiring minimal maintenance. The limestone's natural variation complements both the Bone White spray deck surfacing and the home's exterior materials, creating visual continuity throughout the complete outdoor environment.
What automation features simplify family pool ownership?
The IQ904-P control panel in the Marable project manages variable speed circulation, LED lighting, and filtration cycles from a single interface. Paired with the Polaris 280 cleaner, the system maintains crystal-clear water with minimal daily intervention. The included remote control capability means pool functions can be managed from anywhere in the outdoor living space—ideal for busy families who want maximum enjoyment with minimal effort. This integrated approach to automation makes the Marable pool an investment in both relaxation and simplified ownership for years to come.
