Standard Lights
Standard Incandescent or Colored LED Lights
Pool lighting options are numerous, and have evolved from
standard white Incandescent lamps, to a variety of options including
Colored lighting.
Lights come in a variety of configurations, but the main categories
are standard lights, using Incandescent lamps, and Colored LED
Lights, using high intensity LED technology for a wide range of
colors.
Swimming Pool Lights comes standard on all pools that Alfresco
Pools
builds. Typically a pool will have at least one pool light, and one
Spa light, if the pool has a spa. Lights are mounted in housings,
called niches, and could be manufactured from either Stainless
Steel, or Plastic. Alfresco Pools installs lights in Stainless steel
housings, called niches, for long life protection against rust.
Pool Standard Lighting
Standard Lights are white Incandescent Lights. A single 500 Watt full-size pool light is used for average sized pools, and two or more lights for larger swimming pools, with a 100 Watt Spa light mounted in Spas.
Pool Colored Lighting
LED lighting is the most energy efficient colored-lighting option
on the market. These Pool and Spa lights are LED lights, making it
superior in Lamp hours, 50,000 hours compared to 4,000 hours for
Tungsten Lamps, or 6,000 - 8,000 hours for traditional white
Incandescent lamps. (See
comparison chart).
Other colored light options include Fiber Optic lighting, but the
many quality features and long-lasting performance, make LED
lighting a prefered choice for Colore Pool Lighting.
The Spectrum Amerlite (SAm) is a color light for swimming pools.
These lights typically have twin 150 Watt 4,000 hour tungsten
halogen bulbs.
The Spectrum AquaLight (SAL) is used for colored light effects in
Spas. Spectrum AquaLight (SAL) has two 75 Watt 4,000 hour tungsten
halogen bulbs.
Fiber Optics Lighting uses super capacity fiber optic cables in the
end wall to distribute light from a light source to lens housings
mounted in the pool.
All of the above three light technologies, use a mechanical rotating
wheel, mounted on a color wheel motor shaft, to achieve color
changes.
