5 Key Considerations for Building Community Spray Park
Gone are the days when swimming pools were the top favorite recreational source in the summer. Needless to say, it had many drawbacks such as the moms had to always stay close to their children to prevent any accidental drowning; kids had to use floaters to stay safe in the water, and prior lessons were required to fully enjoy swimming. In all of that, poor mums who took their kids for swimming remained deprived off from fun. They always had to act as security guards for their kids, without having any fun of their own.
Nowadays, Spray Park is pretty much in trend. It is a setup which has a lot of nozzles through which water is sprayed on the people – be it elderly, kids or teenagers – inside it. Moreover, there are several outlets on the base, which transport the water that gets collected on the ground. Through these outlets, the water is transported back into some water storage unit. As there is no collection of the water, there are fewer chances of drowning. Hence, parents can also fully enjoy themselves in Spray Park.
Following are some of the key consideration points that are required to be kept in mind while constructing a community Spray Park.
- Target audience – depending on it, the types of nozzles, the intensity of water and other factors will be decided.
- Features – such as whether the water will be simply sprinkled on the people inside the Spray Park or it will be dumped all at once with one big splash.
- Sequencing – it is essential for kids. Water sprayed out in a sequence really mesmerizes the children and have them predict that from where the water will be sprayed next. This not only gives them extreme pleasure but also boosts their mental ability.
- System Type – whether it will be a recirculating one or the flow-through system. In the former, the water which is sprayed from the outlets is collected in a tank and reused. This method required proper treatment of the water in order to prevent allergies or reactions. However, in the latter, the water is fetched from a water source and once it is used, it is then transported to the municipality’s storm system. This method doesn’t require any water treatment and is much safer.
- Surfacing – it can be of brushed concrete, synthetic material or broom finish, depending on the durability and safety you want to achieve from the Spray Park.
Keeping these factors in mind while
finalizing a Spray Park will ensure that you spend your money on the best
product that will last you for several decades to come!
