Otterbine’s Gemini Adds Striking Focal Point
To Xerox Lake In Dublin
A Gemini aerating fountain from water
specialist Otterbine transformed a lake
at the Ballycoolin branch of digital
printing company Xerox in Dublin.
Chosen by facilities management
company Acacia and installed
by irrigation specialists Aquaturf
Solutions, the 3HP surface spray
aerator was favoured for its dual ability
to circulate the water, which was at
risk of becoming stagnant when the
previous 12-year old fountain broke,
and provide a striking feature for the
business park’s canteen diners to
enjoy.
Gavin Osborne, facilities engineer
at Acacia who had the job of finding
the perfect fountain, says: “We’d
been looking into the right fountain
for three to four months before we
were recommended the Gemini by a
colleague who’d recently installed one
at a local golf club.”
According to Gavin the Gemini ticked
all the boxes: “It was important we
found something with a practical
purpose to maintain a clean and clear
lake and provide an attractive focal
point in the commercial landscape of
the business park.”
The Gemini is both functional and
beautiful, as its power can move over
three times more water than decorative
pattern fountains, yet its simple beauty
provides an appealing aesthetic.
Before
“The level of power and spray were
exactly what we were looking for,” says
Gavin. “The water is kept aerated and
healthy and the 1.5m vertical spray
pattern is really striking.”
And with that Gavin perfectly summed
up the Gemini, for with it you do not
have to sacrifice the pretty for the
practical.
