How to Choose the Best Bubble Wall For Your Space

Since Bubble Walls come in multiple shapes and sizes, every fountain calls for different spaces. Here are a few things to consider before installing Bubble walls on your property.

• Cost:

Bubble water fountains vary greatly when it comes to costs. Naturally, the larger the size of free-standing fountains the more the cost. Interior window fountains are the most affordable options if you’re looking for something on a low budget. Including customized features for instance tubing designs and having multi-color DXE lights raise the prices of your package.

• Location:

The place where you plan to fit your bubble wall panel decides the size, as well as the style and lighting of bubble wall panels. It's recommended to get a bubble wall different from those for a patient waiting room than for that behind the bar in a nightclub. Even within the same property, different rooms can have different purposes and vibes that you would want the bubble wall to match.

• Size and Dimension:

If you have a narrow hallway, you would want to steer clear of large floor standing fountains. Similarly avoid small wall mounted fountains in large rooms. Always ensure that the size of your bubble wall is in proportion to the size of the room you’re placing it in.

• Style:

There are two styles of bubble art walls, bubble baffle and baffle bubble. Bubble baffle fountains come with built-in vertical tubes inside the panels that make the bubbles flow upwards. In baffle bubble fountains, the bubbles move freely inside the panels. The former are more suited for a modern and fun ambiance while the latter for a more relaxing and romantic look.

• Quality:

As bubble water wall features have gained more popularity, more companies have started coming up with their own versions of these fountains. However, not all of them are built the same. Some fountains use lower quality materials which result in mechanical malfunctions, leakage and lesser lifespans.

• Customization:

With bubble acrylic walls, you have the liberty to get a custom bubble wall that fits and enhances the look of a space. Common customizations include colored lights, styles, sizes and shapes. For a more professional look, customized bubble wall fountains can also be engraved with and shaped into business logos.
