Pool Lighting

Pool time can be all fun until night-time creeps in, becoming scary and dangerous. The thought of getting into the water and probably running into things that may hurt you can make you only want to swim during the day. Lighting your pool can truly add to your security and accentuate its look making you want to swim anytime you get a chance to.

Why is lighting important?

  • Adds on visibility
Night-time visibility is vital as it keeps you and your loved ones safe. Besides helping you see what is in the water, it gives you the peace of mind that you will not run into insects or another swimmer. It will also help those around the deck to keep an eye on those in the pool, i.e., your pets and children.
  • You can use your pool at anytime
Your pool should be the perfect place where you relieve your stress after a busy day. You could also opt to hold your birthday, have a poolside dinner, or have your movie night just by the poolside. Having proper lighting for your pool makes it convenient for you to have all the outdoor fun right in your swimming pool at any time. It also makes it ambient by creating an atmosphere where you can undertake your swimming and pool games comfortably. 

Types of pool lights

There are three types of pool lights; incandescent, halogen, and LED. Incandescent lights have been used through the years, but with the technology upgrade, people have moved to halogen and LED lights that are more affordable and durable.

How do you know the number and color of pool lights you need?

You may be wondering how many light bulbs you might need to put in place to light up your pool area. Some of the factors that you need to have in mind are;
  • How big is your pool?

    The bigger the pool, the more lights are needed, and vice versa. The shape of your pool should also be considered, as you want to ensure that all areas of your pool are well-lit.

  • What is the finish of your pool?

    The color and texture of the finish of your pool affect the quality of your light. For instance, some colors may appear brighter than others in the water, especially in the deeper end. If your pool has a light to medium finish, colored or white light is enough. On the other hand, if the finish is dark, some colors may not be visible, especially toward the deeper ends. A white light will be the best option for your dark finish pool.

  • What is the purpose of the lighting?

    Whether it is for aesthetics, family, or fitness use, the amount of lighting you choose should be a reflection of your needs. For instance, if you are looking to add lighting for the safety of your family, then you might consider paying attention to safety areas such as exits, entrances, and steps.
