Frequently Asked Questions
How does a flat spillover connect the spa to the main pool?
A flat spillover creates a continuous water curtain flowing from the elevated spa into the main pool, providing visual connection and gentle water movement. In the Berry project, the 7-foot flat spillover connects their custom spa to the main swimming area, creating unified water circulation between the 625-gallon spa and 13,943-gallon pool. This design maintains consistent water temperature and chemistry between both vessels while adding the soothing sound of moving water throughout the outdoor living space. The effect is both functional and atmospheric.
What makes Buff Lueders stone ideal for Texas pool environments?
Buff Lueders limestone offers exceptional durability and heat resistance, staying comfortable underfoot even during Texas summers. The Berry family's outdoor living space demonstrates how this native stone provides both architectural presence and practical performance across coping and veneer applications. The straight smooth coping finish creates clean geometric lines along the pool perimeter, while the splitface veneer adds textural depth to raised structures. Paired with the Adobe Buff spray deck covering 644 square feet, the material palette delivers visual warmth and cool-touch comfort throughout the environment.
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.
What are the benefits of UV/O3 sanitization systems?
UV/O3 systems provide advanced water sanitization through ultraviolet light and ozone generation, significantly reducing chlorine requirements. The Berry family's in-line UV/O3 sanitizer ensures crystal-clear water with minimal chemical maintenance and no harsh odors, enhancing the wellness-focused design of their outdoor living space. This sanitization approach is particularly valuable for families seeking a more natural swimming environment. Paired with the IQ904-P control panel and included remote, the system integrates seamlessly into the automation platform for effortless daily management of water quality.
How does pergola integration enhance pool design?
Integrated pergola structures provide overhead definition and architectural presence while maintaining open circulation around the pool. The Berry project's pergola with cistern and raised beam elements creates sheltered zones for entertaining while preserving sight lines across the outdoor living space. This structure serves both functional and aesthetic purposes—offering partial shade and architectural framework that complements the water features rather than competing with them. The pergola anchors the broader environment, giving the space vertical dimension beyond the pool and custom spa.
