Landscape Design: The Benefits of Water Features

Category: Landscaping Design, Water Features

Getting to know the benefits of water features in landscape design can help you make an informed decision about whether or not a water feature will suit your particular needs. At Jovak Landscape and Design, we understand how important it is to create a comfortable and relaxing backyard space. That is why we offer a wide range of landscaping services for landscape design and installing water features.9

The Benefits of Water Features in Landscape Design

Some of the main benefits of water features in landscape design include:

1. Enhances the Natural Ecosystem

If you are a nature lover, adding a water feature to your overall landscape design can be a great way to attract wildlife, such as birds, rabbits, squirrels, and dragonflies. Inviting beneficial wildlife onto your property can provide endless hours of entertainment for you, while providing the animals with a fresh, clean water source. Adding plants to a water feature can also be a great way to bring the property into harmony with the local ecosystem.

2. Adds Curb Appeal

Landscape water features can be a simple way to add visual interest and charm to any backyard, as well as to pique the interest of potential homebuyers. If you are hoping to get a better resale value for your home, adding a fountain, brook, pond, or waterfall can help increase the overall curb appeal and property value of the home. In order to attract potential buyers, it is also a good idea to ensure that the water feature is designed properly, so that it can be used in most seasons without the need for constant maintenance.

3. Reduces Noise Pollution

Certain types of water features, such as fountains or waterfalls, can help reduce the level of noise pollution in your backyard. While the sound of water is soothing and can be used to block out annoying sounds like traffic or construction, it is important to select a water feature with the right amount of white noise to solve the problem. Doing so will allow you to enjoy a peaceful and relaxing area at all times of day.

4. Improves Air Quality

Water features can help improve the air quality in any space by releasing negative ions, which are known to have positive, stress-relieving effects on people. Falling water can also act as a filter for dust, pollen, or animal hair floating in the air, making it beneficial for people suffering from asthma or allergies.
