The category of “swimming pool lights” is a vast one. With the lighting technologies of today it is easy and often economical to turn your swimming pool into a work of art. Few things are as mesmerizing as the soft glow of underwater pool lights, particularly at night. Floating pool lights give a magical glow to nighttime swimming. And with the many choices of solar swimming pool lights, they can be a very energy efficient choice as well.
The major categories of pool lights are as follows: in-ground pool lights, above ground pool lights, fiber optic lights, LED pool lights, fountain lights, and landscape lighting. Clearly, there is scope to be very creative using pool lighting. Most of these are self explanatory. Fiber optic lighting contains a spinning color wheel that distributes the colored light through the fiber optic cable and out through the light fixture. You can use fiber optic pool lighting to have magical looking color changing lights. Fiber optic lighting can also be used as perimeter lighting and landscape lighting as well.
Pool lighting is an especially welcome touch when you plan on entertaining guests. Not only will your pool be more beautiful, it will be safer, too, particularly for people who have difficult night vision or who enjoy alcoholic drinks.
When planning your pool lighting, it is a good idea to begin with lighting the pool deck if you have one. Solar deck lights may be an option. If so, you’ll appreciate them even more since they won’t make your electricity bill increase.
If you have an above ground pool, there are lights specifically made to attach to the edge of the pool. Some above ground pools come with fountain attachments, and these can be lit, too, for an even more colorful effect. Pool lighting is a way to make your beautiful swimming pool even more inviting. And the choices are more colorful and affordable than ever.
