Led Pool Floodlights Surface
12V AC/DC White LED Pool Surface Floodlight for Swimming Pool
2 Review(s) If you have a swimming pool at home, you have probably already realised that it can be quite expensive to maintain. In addition to cleaning and repair costs, there is also electricity consumption to consider. There are many areas where we can act to reduce the electricity consumption of our pool, but one of the most important and practical points is pool lighting which is one of the main factors affecting energy consumption, so if you want to save on your electricity bill it is important that you opt for an efficient lighting system.
how to reduce the electricity consumption of the swimming pool?
- Replace halogen spotlights with energy-saving LED spotlights.
- Keep the pool covered with a thermal blanket.
- If heating the pool, use a high-efficiency inverter heat pump to heat the pool water.
- Program the operation of the water pump and pool lights with a timer, WiFi systems offer greater control and convenience.
- Make use of low consumption water pumps with variable speed.
Save on your electricity bill with LED pool lights
One of the most efficient and modern lighting systems for swimming pools are LED spotlights. These lights are an excellent option to save on your electricity bill and at the same time give a modern touch to your pool with minimal installation and maintenance.
One of the main benefits of LED lights is that they consume less energy than other types of lights. Whereas a traditional halogen surface mounted floodlight would consume 100W of energy, an LED floodlight of the same intensity would only consume 10 watts, and this is further enhanced in PAR56 or niche lamps, as the halogen models consume 300W compared to the 20 - 35W needed for a PAR56 lamp with LED technology. This means energy savings of more than 80%. This is because LED lamps use light emitting diodes instead of tungsten filaments, which makes them more efficient in terms of energy consumption.
In addition to being more energy efficient, LED bulbs are also longer lasting than other types of bulbs. Halogen bulbs have a lifespan of approximately 1,000 hours, while LED bulbs can last up to 50,000 hours. This means that you will have to change LED bulbs less often, which translates into savings on replacement costs.
They are also more economical to install. As they have a sensibly lower consumption than halogen systems, they need smaller and cheaper transformers and lighter wiring systems, which means significant savings and less wear and tear on the installation, avoiding having to replace the cable or transformer prematurely.
Another advantage of LED spotlights is that they are available in different colours. This allows you to customise your pool lighting and give it a unique and special touch. Whether you want white, relaxing lighting to create a calm and cosy atmosphere, or brightly coloured, fun lighting to create a cheerful and lively atmosphere, LED spotlights allow you to do just that.
As well as being more efficient and longer lasting, LED lights are also more modern and better suited to pool design trends, allowing for smaller, more discreet and flatter designs. If you want your pool to look more attractive and up-to-date, LED lights are an excellent choice. With an LED lighting system, your pool will look more modern and be at the cutting edge of design.
Installing LED lights in your pool will allow you to make use of advanced lighting control systems. With a WiFi controller, for example, you will be able to control your pool lighting from anywhere, even with home automation systems such as Alexa or Google Assistant. This will allow you to adjust your pool lighting according to your preferences and needs, and make use of all the functionalities offered by these systems.
Solar LED pool lights
Another type of lighting that you can consider are solar pool lights. This type of spotlights do not require prior installation and have no electricity consumption, as they use solar energy and batteries. It must be taken into account that for this type of spotlights it is essential to have a very sunny pool, with no shadows from trees or other obstacles, its installation must be done close to the surface to increase the solar charge received.
However, these solar systems are less powerful and generally only provide dim white light. These systems operate on a sunset basis, so we have no control over when we want them to operate, the brightness cannot be increased or dimmed and generally require a greater number of lights to be installed to achieve similar lighting in the pool. These solar pool lights do not require installation as they are "glued" to the pool, which can result in them moving or falling over, especially in pools with children. Lastly, it should be taken into account that they are highly polluting, as they have batteries that degrade and generate a greater amount of waste. Their solar panels also lose efficiency over the years, which means that they lose even more brightness and therefore require an earlier replacement.
Other ways to save energy in the swimming pool
In addition to lighting, there are other measures you can take to save energy consumption in your pool. One of them is to install a pool cover. Covers help maintain the water temperature for longer and reduce the amount of energy needed to heat the water. They can also help reduce the amount of contaminants and dirt entering the pool, which reduces the amount of time and energy needed to clean the pool and prevents water evaporation, saving this scarce commodity.
Another measure you can take is to install an energy-efficient pool pump. Pool pumps are one of the main energy consumers in a pool, so opting for an energy-efficient pump can help you save on your electricity bill. In addition, energy efficient pumps are generally quieter and have a longer life span than traditional pumps.
Another option is to install a heat pump system for your pool. Heat pump heating systems use geothermal energy to heat the pool water, which means you don't have to reduce consumption drastically compared to electric or gas heaters to heat the water. Although the initial cost of installing a heat pump system can be high, in the long run you can save significantly on your energy bill.
Finally, it is important to have timers on the pool's electrical panel that allow convenient and precise programming of the water pump or lighting, preventing these systems from being left on for longer than necessary. In this field, WiFi programmers allow more precise and convenient control from a mobile phone.
In short, if you want to save on your electricity bill and give your pool a modern touch, LED lights are an excellent option. As well as being more efficient and long-lasting, they allow you to personalise your pool lighting and be at the cutting edge of design, so swap your traditional lights for LED lights and enjoy all these benefits!
