Light Replacement Parts for Your Pool

There are many benefits with the inclusion of pool lighting parts. Lighting improves night time visibility. For times when you want to go for a late night swim during the warm summer months, or maybe you are lounging in your backyard in the fall and want the water to be noticeable, lighting is crucial. These visual perks come secondary to the greater importance of lights acting as a safety reminder for small kids and pets to see the pool. Especially in Canada, pool lighting parts can illuminate the backyard in the winter when it gets dark so early. Lighting can be used as an accent to accentuate elements of the backyard scene such as plants or rocks or water features such as a slide or a waterfall. Pool lights add definition to architectural and design elements. 

Lighting can set the atmosphere. For example, a calm and peaceful blue, provides a sense of security. An easy on the eyes green, creates harmony and peace. A joyful orange and yellow, ethuses fun and optimism. Lights can enhance or spark a mood altogether. Whether you are entertaining a group of friends, or spending quality time with family, or even relaxing on your own, the area can be more festive and delightful depending on the color you choose. Well-chosen lighting offers serious advantages both aesthetically and practically.

When shopping a sale for pool lighting parts, the bulbs will be one of two types: LEDs and halogen. LEDs have longer lifespans, are more affordable, and are more energy-efficient. LEDs are versatile and programmable. Homeowners have the option to integrate energy-saving features such as dimmers and sensors to LED light bulbs. This is why LEDs are the more suitable pool light parts for inground pools. Halogen are durable and good for the environment, but have a short life span and are costly.

The number of pool lights implemented is influenced by the size and shape of your pool, the surrounding area, and/or specific design considerations. The placement of these lights is dependent on what you are looking to achieve. Is the purpose of these lights for practicality and visibility, to illuminate a path or steps? Or is your focus to highlight design elements and create an aesthetic with colored lights that emphasize plants and statues? The pool owner has full control over the design and creativity they wish to display!
