Splash Pad

When we think of water park spaces, perhaps the first thing that occurs to us is a pool with slides, but it is not limited only to these alternatives.

Apart from the previously mentioned splash park, there is also the splash pad. But, what is a splash pad?

A splash pad is a leisure and recreation area, often located in a water park or public park, with water features that have no water depth at all. So, it’s an ideal solution for children, as it eliminates the need for a lifeguard, as there is no risk of drowning and all elements are made with soft and rounded materials.

It is an increasingly widespread alternative among lovers of aquatic attractions. The splash pad is a space where the water springs from jets that come from different places, so it offers great fun due to all the different entertainment possibilities it can offer.

They usually integrate ground nozzles that spray water upwards from the floor. There may also be other water features such as semi-circular pipe showers, mushrooms or tree shaped showers for example.

Some splash pads feature interactive nozzles to allow users to move them and spray at others. Floor showers and nozzles are often controlled by a hand-activated motion sensor, to run for a limited time.

The water is usually recycled and always treated to the same quality level as pool water standards. These splash pads often have a non-slip textured concrete surface or granulated rubber.

As well as most of all water park installations, it can be enhanced with an homogeneous thematization in order to provide a more immersive experience as well as an attractive visual atmosphere.
