Aluminium Water Features

Welcome to our selection of aluminium water features. Here at Taylor Made Planters, we understand that adding a water feature can transform any outdoor space, bringing a sense of calm and a touch of modern elegance. Our range of aluminium designs is built to offer both lasting beauty and reliable performance, creating a focal point that you and your visitors will enjoy for years to come.

We believe your garden should be a place for relaxation and enjoyment, and the gentle sound of flowing water can contribute significantly to that atmosphere. Our water features are designed with simplicity and effectiveness in mind, ensuring they are easy to integrate into your existing outdoor setup. Take a look at what makes our aluminium water features a great choice for your home or commercial space.

Why Choose Aluminium for Your Water Feature?

Aluminium is an excellent material choice for outdoor water features, mainly because of its impressive durability and resistance to the British weather. Unlike some other materials, aluminium will not rust or corrode, meaning your water feature will maintain its smart appearance season after season. We use a sturdy 3mm thick sheet aluminium for the construction of all our features, which provides a strong, stable, and long-lasting product that stands up well to outdoor conditions.

Beyond its inherent strength, each of our aluminium water features benefits from a high-quality polyester powder-coated finish. This special coating is applied to the aluminium, creating a protective layer that is incredibly hard-wearing and resistant to chips, scratches, and fading from UV light. This means your water feature will keep its vibrant colour and smooth texture without needing constant attention, allowing you to simply enjoy its beauty.

The Heart of the Feature and Water Circulation

Every effective water feature relies on a well-designed system to keep the water flowing smoothly and continuously. Our aluminium water features are engineered with this in mind, incorporating components that ensure constant circulation and a pleasant water display. The design is self-contained, meaning you do not need a separate pond or complex plumbing to enjoy the calming sound and visual appeal of moving water.

Internal Water Reservoir

Each water feature includes an internal water reservoir. This integrated basin holds the water securely within the unit, removing the need for an external water source beyond the initial fill. This design makes our features particularly neat and tidy, fitting seamlessly into various garden styles without exposed pipework or unsightly components.

Submersible Water Pump

Powering the flow is a reliable submersible water pump. This pump sits quietly within the internal water reservoir, drawing water up and pushing it through the system. Its placement keeps it out of sight and reduces noise, ensuring that the only sound you hear is the gentle trickle of water, creating a peaceful ambience in your garden.

Stainless Steel Waterfall Spout

Many of our designs feature a sleek stainless steel waterfall spout. This component is carefully crafted to create a smooth, even sheet of water that cascades elegantly from the feature. The use of stainless steel adds a touch of modern sophistication and is also highly resistant to corrosion, maintaining its pristine look over time and ensuring a consistent water flow for years.

Adding Ambience and Integrated LED Lighting

To truly extend the enjoyment of your water feature into the evening hours, many of our aluminium designs come with integrated LED lighting. This thoughtful addition transforms the feature into a captivating spectacle after dusk, making your outdoor space inviting and magical. The lighting is discreetly built into the structure, highlighting the flowing water and casting a soft glow that enhances the surrounding area.

The integrated LED lighting uses energy-efficient technology, so you can enjoy the beautiful effect without worrying about high electricity bills. Whether you are hosting an evening gathering or simply unwinding after a long day, the subtle illumination adds depth and atmosphere to your garden. It is a simple yet effective way to make your water feature a focal point even when the sun goes down.

Installation and Maintenance Made Easy

We know that you want to spend more time enjoying your garden and less time on complicated setups or demanding maintenance. That is why our aluminium water features are designed for straightforward installation and easy care. Most models arrive ready to be placed, filled with water, and plugged in, allowing you to quickly bring the soothing sounds of water to your outdoor space.

To make maintenance even simpler, each water feature is fitted with a practical drainage plug. This allows for easy emptying of the internal water reservoir when you need to clean the feature or prepare it for winter. Draining the water is a quick process, helping you keep your feature in top condition with minimal effort. Keeping your feature clean and well-maintained will ensure its longevity and continued beautiful appearance. For more tips on looking after your garden, you might find our blog helpful.

Placement Ideas for Your Garden or Patio

One of the great advantages of our aluminium water features is their versatility in placement. Their contemporary design and robust construction mean they look fantastic in a wide array of settings, from a small urban balcony to a large country garden. Consider placing a feature on your patio or decking area to create an inviting outdoor living space, perfect for relaxing or entertaining guests.

They also work wonderfully as a welcoming piece near your front door or as a tranquil element in a quiet corner of your garden, perhaps alongside some carefully chosen planters.

A Look at Our Design Philosophy

At Taylor Made Planters, our design philosophy for aluminium water features centres on clean lines, understated elegance, and enduring quality. We believe that a water feature should be a beautiful object in its own right, whether the water is flowing or not. Our designs are crafted to complement contemporary garden aesthetics, offering a sophisticated touch without being overly ornate or distracting.

We focus on creating pieces that act as a natural focal point, drawing the eye and inviting closer appreciation. The minimalist forms ensure that the features blend seamlessly with architectural elements and planting schemes, enhancing the overall design of your outdoor area. This commitment to thoughtful design ensures that each water feature is not just a functional item, but a piece of art for your garden.

Caring for Your Aluminium Water Feature

Maintaining your aluminium water feature is straightforward, ensuring it remains a source of enjoyment for many years. Regular cleaning of the internal water reservoir and occasional topping up of the water level will keep your feature running smoothly. We recommend using a soft cloth and mild soap for any exterior cleaning to preserve the polyester powder-coated finish.

During the colder months, especially when frost is expected, it is advisable to drain the water feature completely using the drainage plug and store the pump indoors. This simple step will protect the components from potential frost damage and ensure everything is ready for use again in the spring.
