The Multiple Kinds of Wall Fountains

The Multiple Kinds of Wall Fountains Having a wall fountain in your garden or on a veranda is fantastic when you wish to relax. Even a small space can include a custom-made one.Multiple Kinds Wall Fountains 791773648.jpg Whether it is stand alone or fitted, you will need a spout, a water basin, internal piping, and a pump. There are any number of different styles available on the market including traditional, contemporary, classical, or Asian.

Usually quite big, freestanding wall fountains, also known as floor fountains, have their basins on the floor.

You can decide to place your wall-mounted feature on an preexisting wall or build it into a new wall. A cohesive look can be realized with this style of fountain because it seems to become part of the landscape rather than an added element.

Rome’s Ingenious Water Delivery Solutions

Rome’s Ingenious Water Delivery Solutions 5157990930110.jpg Rome’s Ingenious Water Delivery Solutions With the building of the very first raised aqueduct in Rome, the Aqua Anio Vetus in 273 BC, folks who lived on the city’s foothills no longer had to be dependent exclusively on naturally-occurring spring water for their needs. If citizens residing at higher elevations did not have access to springs or the aqueduct, they’d have to be dependent on the other existing solutions of the time, cisterns that accumulated rainwater from the sky and subterranean wells that received the water from under ground. Starting in the sixteenth century, a newer approach was introduced, using Acqua Vergine’s subterranean segments to deliver water to Pincian Hill. Pozzi, or manholes, were made at regular intervals along the aqueduct’s channel. While these manholes were manufactured to make it much easier to conserve the aqueduct, it was also possible to use buckets to extract water from the channel, which was exercised by Cardinal Marcello Crescenzi from the time he bought the property in 1543 to his death in 1552. The cistern he had built to obtain rainwater wasn’t adequate to meet his water specifications. That is when he made the decision to create an access point to the aqueduct that ran beneath his property.
