A pool sheer descent is essentially a waterfall. Although there are various variations of the classic waterfall, the pool’s sheer descent is unique in how the water falls into the pool – tapering off as it reaches the waterline. At the same time, natural waterfalls form an arc-shaped stream of water.

The sheer descents thin the rushing water so that it looks like a leaf. This gives the pool’s sheer descent a sleek, smooth, glass-like aesthetic. Also, the thinner water arch doesn’t make as much noise as a traditional waterfall. This increases the level of tranquility when you’re in the pool.
