You can beautify your living area by putting in an indoor wall fountain. Your eyes, your ears and your well-being can be favorably influenced by including this kind of indoor feature in your home. Science supports the hypothesis that water fountains are excellent for you. Water features generally produce negative ions which are then balanced out by the positive ions released by modern conveniences. When positive ions overtake negative ones, this results in greater mental and physical health. The higher serotonin levels resulting from these types of features make people more aware, serene and energized. The negative ions generated by indoor wall fountains promote a better mood as well as get rid of air impurities from your home. Allergies, air-borne pollutants among other annoyances can be done away with by these water features. And lastly, dust contaminants and microbes in the air are removed and lead to improved health.

Aqueducts: The Solution to Rome's Water Problems

Aqueducts: The Solution to Rome's Water Problems Rome’s first raised aqueduct, Aqua Anio Vetus, was built in 273 BC; before that, people residing at higher elevations had to rely on local creeks for their water. When aqueducts or springs weren’t available, people dwelling at higher elevations turned to water removed from underground or rainwater, which was made available by wells and cisterns. From the beginning of the sixteenth century, water was routed to Pincian Hill through the subterranean channel of Acqua Vergine. As originally constructed, the aqueduct was provided along the length of its channel with pozzi (manholes) constructed at regular intervals. The manholes made it less demanding to thoroughly clean the channel, but it was also possible to use buckets to pull water from the aqueduct, as we witnessed with Cardinal Marcello Crescenzi when he owned the property from 1543 to 1552, the year he died. The cistern he had built to collect rainwater wasn’t sufficient to meet his water specifications. Thankfully, the aqueduct sat under his property, and he had a shaft established to give him accessibility.
