Spray Parks Make Summertime Fun for Everyone

From the state of New York, to cities like Philadelphia, to the suburbs of California, spray park equipment is becoming more popular in urban and suburban area community parks and recreational water facilities across the country. These can be a wonderful addition to any community park or recreational center pool. There are many advantages to having spray park equipment installed in your community park, and spray parks offer a great way to cool off in the summer heat. They are a ton of fun and can come with all different types of mechanisms—from small, easy flowing underground water features to larger, above ground features that spray and disperse water in a variety of ways out of any shape or character you can imagine.

Spray park equipment offers a variety of features that were never before available to the traditional community pools and parks. One of the best of those features is that it is zero depth, which allows all ages from infant to adult to enjoy splashing around and playing in the water without the risk of drowning. Many parents avoid taking their children (especially little ones in the toddler and preschool age groups) to public swimming pools or water parks because of the depth of the water and risk of drowning. Spray park equipment can eliminate those fears since the zero depth system has an intense drainage system that does not allow water to build up on the surface of the play area. This lets even the youngest of children play freely and enjoy the water while their parents can have relief in the fact that the risks of injury or drowning have been greatly minimized.

Spray parks also cut out the expense for having to staff lifeguards, and expensive maintenance systems. This takes a financial load off of owners and allows the spray park equipment to be used for longer periods of time during summer months, without extra cost. Another great benefit of this equipment is the water conservation value. Most systems are motion activated so they are not continuously running if there are no children playing, and many systems also offer re-circulating options. This helps to conserve water and even keep the amount of water that is required less than the standard swimming pool, saving on long term cost as well.

In all, spray park equipment is a great asset to add to any community water facility or community park. With the multitude of benefits it allows all ages and abilities to enjoy cooling off from the summer time heat, while being environmentally friendly and cost effective with its water conservation.
