Negative Edge
Baptismal Fonts
by Water Structures

Pictured the new baptismal font at "Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church" in Oakland, NJ. Water Structures LLC worked with the font's designers, Arthur John Sikula Architects of NYC, who wanted the bottom pool of the baptismal to gently overflow its top. The project was particularly challenging because all its equipment had to be contained within the font. Water Structures was able to prefabricate the baptismal font with its equipment installed in it at the factory.

Negative edge baptismals are structurally and hydraulically more sophisticated than the standard design baptismals. Water Structures water tests every baptismal font shell and equipment package before shipping. Pictured is Saint Clare negative edge baptismal, Shiloh, IL.
