Rainfall Style Scupper: a row of small nozzles that drop many separate streams, 6 to 36 inches
The Outdoor Plus Rainfall style scupper is a metal box with a row of short nozzles along its bottom edge, so instead of one sheet you get a curtain of separate falling streams, like rain off a roof edge. Water feeds in through a threaded inlet on top. It sets into a pool wall or raised bond beam and is made in the USA. Choose 6, 8, 12, 24, or 36 inches wide in copper, which darkens outdoors, or stainless steel, which stays bright.
Your builder plumbs the supply line to the inlet. Prefer one solid sheet of water? The Straight scupper is the simplest trough. The Rainfall style scupper ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ
What does the spill from the Rainfall Style Scupper look like?
Instead of one solid ribbon, the Rainfall Style Scupper breaks its flow into a curtain of slender streams, like a strip of steady rain falling from the wall. It is softer to the eye and ear than a sheet-flow scupper, which is exactly why people choose it.
What widths does the Rainfall Style Scupper come in?
Five: 6, 8, 12, 24, and 36 inches. Copper SKUs run OPT-RNS6 through OPT-RNS36, with stainless steel versions carrying the -SS suffix. The narrow 6 and 8 inch units suit spa walls and repeated accents, while 24 and 36 inch units make a full rain curtain.
How does the Rainfall Style Scupper sound compared to other scuppers?
Gentler and more layered. Because the water arrives as many small streams, the Rainfall Style produces a diffuse, rain-on-a-pond patter instead of a single concentrated splash. If a scupper is going near a bedroom window or a quiet lounge area, this texture is the easy listening option.
Is copper or stainless steel better for the Rainfall Style Scupper?
Both are solid, weatherproof metals; they just age differently. Copper mellows into a darker patina that flatters rustic stone and warm palettes, while stainless keeps the Rainfall Style crisp and contemporary. In salt-pool or coastal settings, give either finish a routine fresh-water rinse.
How is the Rainfall Style Scupper plumbed?
Like any wall scupper: a pool contractor runs a recirculating supply line behind the wall to the unit and sets flow with a balancing valve. The Rainfall Style needs enough steady flow to keep the whole curtain active, so the installer tunes it until every stream runs evenly.
What is the winter routine for the Rainfall Style Scupper?
Drain the feature line when the pool closes and the Rainfall Style can face winter as-is; the solid metal body is untroubled by freeze and thaw. The only rule for any plumbed water feature is simple: no water left standing in the lines when the ice arrives.
Can I combine the Rainfall Style Scupper with a fire feature?
Yes. Its rain curtain against flame is a favorite evening effect: mount the Rainfall Style in the wall and set a pool fire bowl on the beam above or beside it. Water and gas stay in fully separate systems, each installed by its own trade.
