What a water wall brings to your room

Moisture for dry air

Water evaporates into the room across the entire stone surface. No device, no filter, no limescale dust.

An acoustic landscape for the office

Layers itself over keyboards, ventilation, and voices from next door without disturbing phone calls.

Stone, 400 million years old

Solid natural slate, hand-set. Every slab is unique, none will fade.

No water connection

A power outlet is all you need. Setup in about 20 minutes, closed circuit.

Ten minutes a month

Refilling, brushing the stone once a month, and rinsing the pump filter. Nothing more.

Under one euro of electricity per month

2.9 watts for VIO, LIV L, and AVA L. Around 0.78 euros per month in continuous operation.

5-year warranty included in the set

Plus replacement pump, care kit, and 30-day money-back guarantee.

The most frequently cited reason for buying

Dry office air is the norm. It doesn't have to be.

Heating in winter, air conditioning in summer, and eight hours of screen time in between. A water wall gives back to the air what technology takes away, without adding another device to the room. For many business owners, this is the reason why they end up with a water wall in the office instead of a humidifier.

  • The entire wetted stone surface evaporates water into the room, not just a palm-sized water mirror like a table fountain.
  • You can see it by the refilling: every one to two weeks, that exact amount has transitioned into the room air.
  • No filter, no cartridges, no fan, no white limescale dust like with ultrasonic devices.
  • Humid air binds dust that would otherwise fly around. The AQUA FRESH silver net keeps the water fresh in the process.

Just so you hear it from us: A water wall is not a regulated humidifier or an air purifier. No humidistat, no target humidity, no air filter. The intensity of the effect depends on room size, ventilation, and heating. We therefore do not provide a percentage or make health claims.

Humid air binds dust that would otherwise fly around, and the entire wetted stone surface releases moisture into the room. Noticeably.

Impressions: Water walls in real rooms

Office, reception, study, loft. This is what a water wall looks like when it's no longer in the catalog, but right where work gets done.

Real slate. Because you can hear and see the difference.

Most room fountains are plastic with a stone look. Water runs down them in a smooth path. On natural slate, it spreads throughout the structure of the stone, and exactly this distribution creates the sound and the shimmer that defines a water wall.

Slate splits into thin layers, is dense, and absorbs hardly any water. This is why it doesn't warp when it is constantly wet, and why it doesn't fade. The slabs are broken and set individually; every wall has its own unique grain.

How loud is a water wall really?

In the office, the question is particularly justified. You hear the water, and that is intended. What you shouldn't hear is the technology. For an office with phone calls, we recommend the lower half of the regulator; in the reception area, it can be stronger. Common microphones filter out consistent background noise well.

From a review: “The rippling sound is very pleasant and calming. The almost silent pump operation is perfect.” Dieter H., 08.01.2025

Which water wall fits your room?

All models are available as a complete set including a plant pot, caster base, care kit, replacement pump, and a five-year warranty. Rule of thumb for office spaces: VIO or L for your own office and home office, XL for reception areas, waiting areas, and rooms with high ceilings.

HARMONY is in a league of its own: 285 kg, delivered in a wooden crate, requires four people for assembly, 60 liters of water, 45-watt pump at 230 volts with a Schuko plug. We supply the appropriate transformer for Switzerland. All low-voltage specifications on this page apply to VIO, LIV, and AVA.

Cross-section of the CLIMAQUA water wall with pump, hose, and basin

From box to first trickle, around 20 minutes

Set up

Level surface, back against a wall, no water connection required. Modular design, so it can be disassembled.

Fill with water

Tap water is sufficient. The pump sits completely underwater in the basin.

Plug in

Low voltage, no mains voltage in the water. Adjust flow on the pump regulator.

Let it run

Best left running continuously. Moving water collects less debris than standing water, and the electricity costs less than a coffee per month.

HARMONYPUMP 2000A, 230 V, 45 W, 2000 l/h, IPX8

What does it cost per month?

The most common quiet concern for a device that runs around the clock. Here is the calculation so you don't have to do it yourself. Basis: Continuous operation 24 hours, 37 cents per kilowatt hour, the German average price for 2026 according to BDEW.

VIO L, LIV L, AVA L2.9 Watts0.78 per month25 kWh per year, approx. 9.40 per year
LIV XL, AVA XL15.6 Watts4.21 per month137 kWh per year, approx. 50.60 per year
HARMONY45 Watts12.15 per month394 kWh per year, approx. 145.90 per year

For comparison: A VIO or LIV L consumes less electricity per year than a Wi-Fi router, which uses about 88 kWh, and about one-sixth of a refrigerator. At an electricity price of 32 centimes, the Swiss values are slightly lower.

Care and hygiene: doesn't it get dirty quickly?

Where water flows over stone, limescale traces form over time; biofilm forms in standing water. Neither is a problem with natural stone; it's a matter of ten minutes per month. The logic of the products: AQUA in the water, PIERRE on the stone.

Why this is not a problem

Stone forgives more than plastic

Slate and granite are hard and acid-resistant enough for proper cleaning. Brushes, descalers, full treatment: everything is allowed. On coated plastic, that would leave scratches.

Why this is not a problem

Like new again

Even a wall after two years of hard water can be completely descaled. PIERRE CLEAN dissolves, PIERRE CARE restores the matte shine. No film, no damage.

A good fit, or maybe not

It fits if

  • you have your own rooms or decide for yourself what goes into them
  • clients come to visit you and the room says something about you
  • the air is too dry for you in winter or under the air conditioning
  • you have about 35 x 25 cm of wall space and a power outlet available

It might not fit if

  • you need absolute silence in the room to work
  • you work in an open-plan office where others have a say
  • no one is available to take care of refilling and the monthly routine
  • you are looking for a device that regulates air humidity to a specific set point

Frequently asked questions about the water wall

How much electricity does the water wall consume?

Very little. VIO L, LIV L, and AVA L run on the MIDI PRO at 2.9 watts, which is about 25 kWh per year in continuous operation, and at 37 cents per kilowatt-hour, about 0.78 per month. LIV XL and AVA XL require the MAX PRO for their two-meter height, using 15.6 watts, around 137 kWh, and about 4.21 per month. Both operate on 12-volt DC, so there is no mains voltage in the water. HARMONY is the exception at 45 watts on 230 volts, around 12.15 per month.

How often do I need to refill the water?

About every one to two weeks. More evaporates in winter because the air is drier. This is precisely the effect that many people want.

Is there a filter?

There is no filter system, and one is not needed. The water remains in motion. There is a small intake filter in the pump that you rinse out during your monthly routine.

How heavy is it and how much is shipping?

VIO weighs 27 kg, with larger models weighing accordingly more. The usual delivery time is 5 to 8 working days. Germany: free shipping from 300.00, below that 9.90 for orders over 40.00 and 14.90 for orders under 40.00. Austria and Central Europe: free from 500.00, below that 12.90 to 69.00 depending on weight. Switzerland and Liechtenstein: free from 750.00 including customs clearance, below that 9.50 to 87.00.

Why doesn't it have built-in lighting?

By design. LED strips in wet areas corrode and fail; we used to carry them in our range and were not satisfied with their durability. Instead, we recommend our SHINE light source, a flexible USB spot that you attach to the plant pot and aim at the water. Pro tip: Position the wall so that window light falls on it during the day.

Can I also set it up outside?

Yes, all models shown are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. The water must be removed if there is a risk of frost.

What if the pump fails?

A pump is a wear-and-tear part, similar to a light bulb. For this reason, a spare pump is included in every set, and they can be reordered individually starting at 39.00.

How long is the warranty?

Two years on individual products, five years on all LIVING sets. Plus a 30-day return policy; return shipping costs are at your expense.

Can I get an invoice for my company?

Yes. During the ordering process, you can provide the company name and a different billing address, and the invoice will show VAT. Please check with your accountant or tax advisor to see if you can claim the purchase for tax purposes.

Does the trickling sound interfere with phone calls and video calls?

Not at medium settings. Trickling water is in a different frequency range than the human voice, and standard microphones filter out consistent background noise well. For an important call, simply turn the flow down.

Who takes care of the maintenance in the office?

Refill the water every one to two weeks, and once a month, spend ten minutes scrubbing the stone, changing the water, and rinsing the pump filter. In practice, this is usually done by the person who waters the plants.

Feng Shui in the office: What does the philosophy say?

In Feng Shui, water is the element of flow and is traditionally associated with income and business success, which is why many shops in Asia have a fountain within sight of the entrance. The common rules: flowing, clear water; direction of flow into the room, not out the door; southeast as the area associated with money flow; a solid wall behind you when sitting and the water in your field of vision. And the honest disclaimer: serious consultants warn against seeing the wealth corner as a magic formula. A fountain does not bring in new orders.

Where are the water walls manufactured?

We are open about it: CLIMAQUA is a Swiss family business, and the products are handcrafted in the Fujian province in southeastern China. Fujian is one of the most traditional stone regions in the world; the craft has been passed down there for generations as a master art, inherited from father to daughter and son. Every slate slab is individually selected, split, and glued by hand, which is why no two walls are alike. We have been working with the same workshops for years, visit them regularly in person, and inspect every shipment. Development, quality control, warehousing, consulting, and service are handled by us in Switzerland and Germany.

Or for the home?

Living room, hallway, yoga studio: same models, different questions.
