Big T Recreation specializes in large-scale splash pads for city parks across Utah, Nevada, and Idaho—projects that need high play value, durable equipment, and smart planning from day one.
From concept layout and feature zoning to documentation, coordination, and long-term operation considerations, we bring a proven process and the right partners to help you deliver a splash pad that performs on busy summer days and stays a community favorite for years.
Every great splash pad combines variety with clear age zoning. Choose a few favorites—or let us propose a complete layout that fits your footprint and budget. A splash pad is a coordinated set of components that controls water flow, sequences play, and manages drainage. We’ll help you select the right system for your goals, site, and local requirements.
Water source & system approach
We’ll guide you through recirculating vs. flow-through options early so the design matches your operational preferences.
Manifold + Controller
The manifold distributes water lines, and the controller sequences features and start/stop schedules to keep play engaging and manageable.
Activator
Push-button activation can keep the splash pad in “sleep mode” until someone is ready to play—improving interactivity and reducing unnecessary runtime.
Drainage + Surface
Great splash pads start with great grading. We coordinate layout intent with drainage planning and surface finish expectations.
Toddler Zone
Low-intensity sprays and gentle discoveries for early learners.
Blasters & Cannons
High-energy water effects that reward teamwork and movement.
Columns & Geysers
Vertical jets and burst patterns that keep play fresh every cycle.
Loops & Tunnels
Classic run-through features—perfect for sightlines and repeat play.
Whether your priority is conservation, operational simplicity, or local water restrictions, we’ll help you land on the best-fit approach.
Recirculating systems (conserve water)
Recirculating splash pads are designed to capture, filter, treat, and reuse water. They’re a strong choice when you want to reduce water consumption and run longer hours—especially for destination parks with high demand.
Flow-through / non-recirculating systems
Flow-through systems can be a practical choice depending on utilities, footprint, and operational preference. If this is the best fit for your site, we’ll help you plan features and flow to match performance expectations.
With over two decades of experience serving Utah, Idaho, and Nevada, Big T Recreation has become a trusted partner to city leaders, school districts, developers, landscape architects, and planners alike. Whether you’re envisioning a large-scale destination playground or enhancing a neighborhood with new site furnishings, we’re here to guide every step.
It depends on age range, peak attendance, and whether it’s a neighborhood amenity or destination draw. We’ll propose a layout that matches your goals and budget.
Recirculating is often chosen to conserve water; flow-through can be simpler depending on site conditions. We’ll help you decide early.
A typical system includes an activator, controller, and manifold—plus drainage and (if recirculating) water treatment components.
Great performance starts with smart layout planning, proper grading, and coordinated drain intent. We help align splash pad goals with the project team’s civil and construction planning.
Yes—municipal-focused splash pads are designed with public use in mind, and we’ll help you select the right feature mix and materials for longevity.
Absolutely. Zoning, sensory variety, accessible routes, and sightlines all support inclusive play goals.
Yes—shade structures, pavilions, benches, trash receptacles, and more can be packaged as one cohesive park solution.
