Box Style Scupper in Metal: an open cube that drops one square sheet of water, 6 to 12 inches
The Outdoor Plus Box style scupper is a plain open-ended cube with a small lip at the bottom, so water leaves as one clean square sheet. It is the most understated shape in the range and sets into a pool wall, spa wall, or raised planter, made in the USA. Choose 6, 8, 10, or 12 inches wide in copper, which slowly darkens outdoors, or stainless steel, which stays bright.
Your builder plumbs the supply line to the back. Want the water contained between two side walls? The U-Shaped scupper has a flat floor and upright sides. The Box style scupper ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ
What is a box style scupper, exactly?
A crisp rectangular channel that delivers water in a tidy, flat ribbon. The Box Style Scupper’s squared body sits flush and architectural in a wall, so the spill looks machined rather than organic. It is the go-to profile for modern, straight-edged pool and fountain designs.
What sizes are available for the Box Style Scupper?
Four widths: 6, 8, 10, and 12 inches. Copper SKUs run OPT-BX6, OPT-BX8, OPT-BX10, and OPT-BX12, with stainless steel adding the -SS suffix. These compact widths are meant to be used singly over a spa or repeated in a row across a longer pool wall.
Does the Box Style Scupper come in different metals?
Two: copper and stainless steel. Copper will slowly trade its shine for a russet-brown patina that suits warm stonework, while stainless keeps the Box Style looking freshly installed for years. Function and flow are identical, so pick by palette, not performance.
Can I run several Box Style Scuppers on one wall?
That is the classic layout: three or more Box Style units spaced evenly across a raised wall, all fed from one manifold so the ribbons match. Odd counts usually compose best. Your pool builder balances each line so no single scupper hogs the flow.
Who handles installation of the Box Style Scupper?
A pool contractor or landscape plumber, ideally during wall construction so the supply plumbing hides cleanly behind the Box Style body. Each unit gets a recirculating feed and a balancing valve; the trade work is straightforward, but it belongs in the build plan early.
Is winter a problem for the Box Style Scupper?
Not for the scupper: solid copper or stainless steel takes freezing weather in stride. Just have the supply lines behind the Box Style drained at pool closing so no trapped water can freeze and split a pipe. The unit itself stays put all winter.
Is the Box Style Scupper water-only?
Yes, there is no burner or gas connection anywhere in it. It handles water; fire comes from a separate vessel. Many projects pair a row of Box Style ribbons with a fire feature above, and our water bowls collection covers the matching freestanding water pieces.
