Vianti Falls Wall Scuppers
Small bore, decorative face. This is the range to look at when the water is a detail on a wall rather than the main event, and when the plate shape has to carry the style on its own.
The backplate is the choice
Three of the seven carry a round backplate, which reads as a disc on the wall and sits comfortably against stone or a curved surface. Two are square, which answers tile and block. Two are diamond, which is the round plate turned onto a point and is the one that reads as ornament rather than as hardware.
Because the plate is part of the piece, you are choosing both at once. That is the opposite of the approach where the wall plate is bought separately and matched to the scupper afterwards, and it is simpler when you want the detail settled in one order.
Sizes and finishes
The sizes named across the range are a 2 inch round, a 2 and a half inch square and a channel. A round bore sends out a defined spout of water. A channel is a slot, so the water leaves as a wider, flatter sheet. Those are two different effects on a wall, and the size is where you set which one you get.
The finishes named in the titles are antique brass, brass and stainless steel. Antique brass is the warm, darkened option and stainless holds a cooler tone. The title of each product says which finish that piece is, and the rest of the EasyPro range is worth a look if you are specifying a whole feature wall.
Where this range fits
These are small pieces doing a precise job: a line of water on a raised wall, a pair either side of a step, or a single detail on a courtyard fountain wall. They are not the choice for a wide waterfall effect, which is what the bigger faces in our pool scuppers range are for.
- Pick the plate shape to the wall. Round for stone and curves, square for tile, diamond where the detail should read as ornament.
- Pick the bore to the effect. A round outlet gives a spout, a channel gives a sheet.
- Read the finish off the title. Antique brass, brass and stainless steel all appear in this range, so the piece names it rather than the collection.
- Work out the flow. The GPM guide below is the way to size the pump to the number of outlets.
- Repeat rather than enlarge. Three small scuppers in a row read better on a long wall than one large one in the middle. The wider decorative scuppers range covers both approaches.
Vianti Falls Scupper FAQs
What is a backplate and why does it matter?
It is the shaped plate that sits on the wall around the outlet. On this range it is part of the scupper rather than a separate purchase, so the plate and the spout are matched and aligned when they arrive.
It matters because the plate is what you actually look at. The water is a few inches wide, and the plate is the outline that frames it.
What shapes are there?
Three are tagged round backplate, two square and two diamond backplate, across seven pieces.
Round for stone and curved surfaces, square for tile and block, diamond where the detail should read as a decorative element in its own right.
What finishes are available?
The product titles in this range name antique brass, brass and stainless steel, and each title states the finish for that piece.
So read the title rather than the collection name. The finish is set per product here, not across the group.
What is the channel scupper?
A slot rather than a round bore, so the water leaves as a wider, flatter sheet instead of as a defined spout.
It is the one to choose when you want a line of water on the wall. The round outlets give a more pointed effect from a smaller opening.
Does the plate come with the scupper?
On this range it is part of the piece, and the product title names it, for example a round scupper with a round trim plate or with a diamond plate.
If you need a plate on its own for a different scupper, the three sold separately are linked above.
How much flow do these need?
It depends on the outlet width and how many you are running, so there is no single figure. The GPM guide below is the way to work it out and size the pump.
Running several small outlets off one pump is common on a feature wall, which is exactly the case the guide covers.
Who installs it?
The product page is the place to start, because it lists what ships with the scupper and what has to be provided on site.
Anything that joins a gas line or a pool line is work for a qualified installer or the pool builder. That is not a formality: the connection is the part that has to be right, and it is the part a product photo cannot show you.
Do you offer free shipping?
Yes, every scupper here ships free to the lower 48 contiguous states. Most are made to order, so lead times run by piece and are shown on the product page. Heavier items travel by freight and the carrier calls to arrange delivery.
