why light up my pool?
You have finally decided to build or renovate your swimming pool. You want it to be the centre of your garden all summer long, a place to enjoy with family and friends, to relax and cool off in your pool. Now it's time to choose the lighting system that will illuminate and colour your pool during the evenings when you are relaxing, gaining in safety and aesthetics. Choosing a quality system is key to making your purchase long lasting, durable and enjoyable. In this brief guide we will try to help you in the purchasing process by resolving the most common doubts that our customers usually have.
what type of LED spotlight do I need for my pool?
They are flat and extra-flat spotlights, their installation is very simple, by means of a screwed crosspiece it is screwed to the wall of your swimming pool and is firmly fixed. This system does not require any prior work beyond the power supply cable, theyare currently the lights that offer the best guarantee, both for their easy installation and for their advanced technology, so whenever possible they would be the ideal system to install in your new pool .
These systems require a niche previously installed in your pool as well as a front and accessories that are included in the same package. This system cannot be installed in a finished pool as it requires the niche to be in the concrete of the pool.
install white or coloured LED spotlights?
Deciding on the colour of your pool lighting is purely an aesthetic aspect that depends solely on the personal taste of each user. However, there are some details that should be taken into account when selecting the colour.
Within the white spotlights there are different colour temperatures. The most common is to enjoy a cool white colour 6000k as it offers a refreshing and intense white as opposed to the classic warm white 3000k offered by halogen lamps.
The main advantages of white lighting over RGB is its luminous efficiency and ease of installation. Current LED technology achieves efficiencies of over 130 lumens per watt, which means that even large swimming pools can be illuminated with minimum consumption. In addition, they only require a 2-wire cable, making them ideal for replacing old bulbs without modifying the installation at any point.
Nowadays there are also a multitude of RGB systems that allow you to add colour to your pool in a simple way, adding colour to it.
In order to enjoy your pool it is important to choose the right type of connection and RGB controller.
RF Remote Control
Advantages
The main advantage of this type of RF system lies in its price and ease of installation. Like the white spotlights, it only requires a 2-wire cable.
Disadvantages
As the controller is inside the spotlight, the signal reception of the spotlight is really reduced once the spotlight is in the water. This problem is exacerbated in saltwater pools, which makes it very difficult to use and makes it almost impossible to synchronise several spotlights in a pool.
4-wire RGBV+ system
Advantages
This is the ideal system for RGB systems. It is a standard system for all RGB systems which guarantees that you can always find compatible controllers on the market. It is also the only system that allows you to install WiFi home automation controllers that can be controlled with your mobile phone from anywhere in the world or with smart speakers. Thanks to all lights being controlled by a single external controller, the signal reception is always optimal and all lights in your pool, garden or LED waterfalls can be synchronised easily.
Disadvantages
We could say that the only disadvantage of this type of spotlight is that it requires a 4-wire cable for installation, so it may not be the best solution for refurbished pools or pools where you just want to change the spotlights. They also require an external RGBV+ controller to control their colours.
ON/OFF systems
Advantages
They are RGB lights with 2-wire cable that do not require an external controller for operation or colour change. They also do not require a remote control as the colours are changed by simply switching the pool lights on and off repeatedly. All the lights in your pool will remain perfectly synchronised.
Disadvantages
They do not have a remote control, so they are perhaps the most uncomfortable to use (although it can be installed as an option). They have fewer programmes and possibilities than 4-wire systems.
The right power
You should bear in mind that the correct way to measure the light output of a spotlight is by lumens. There are spotlights that offer the same lumens with a consumption of 25W as others with a consumption of 35W, enjoying a significant energy saving in the former. The adequate power for a swimming pool of approximately 22 m³ is 1.200 lumens.
