How Do I Choose Lighting for My Pool Area?

You are here: Home / Pools / How Do I Choose Lighting for My Pool Area?

Pool area lighting has changed over the last few decades. There are new designs, types of lighting options, and colors to help you set the perfect mood and improve safety in your pool area. Because of this, ample choices mean that you’ll have the opportunity to use lighting to design your pool space uniquely for your tastes.

How to Choose the Best Pool Area Lighting

Choosing the best pool area lighting should be a fun experience. After all, you’re creating a space that you can enjoy. Lighting options make your pool safer for night time swimming but they also set the mood for outdoor parties or just time to relax.

Here are a few tips to help you find the right lighting options:

  • Consider the Whole Space. There are lighting options for inside and outside your pool. You might opt for colored LED lights in your inground pool, giving it an ethereal effect. Also, you can add traditional options or low voltage outside the pool to save energy and provide softer lighting.
  • Research. You can get some of your best lighting ideas from finding examples you like.
  • Think Outside the Box. Pool lighting doesn’t just need to be utilitarian. You can string fairy lights, use lantern lighting around the pool, or combine energy efficiency with ambiance. You can use any combination.
  • Consider Safety. The way your space looks is important, but safety is also a top concern. Lighting can help prevent slip and fall accidents. It’s especially important if you have little swimmers to see the entire pool interior at night.
