If you're buying a new swimming pool, then you have more options on how to arrange outdoor lights in or around the pool. But you can definitely plan pool lighting even if you have forgotten about it and want to do it now. Pool lights and their surroundings are very important. Safety always comes first. But you should feel comfortable and pool lights should add a spark.
When you're buying new pool lights, design is also important. But safety always comes first. Because of the fact that these pool lights will constantly contend with water and other moisture, you need to think about it carefully. Therefore you need to focus on lights with high IP protection. Ideal are lights with at least IP of 65. But the higher IP, the better. Lighting with such high IP protection is right for the pool and its surroundings. You don't have to worry about the fact that you will have a short circuit with the lights by the pool or that you will somehow endanger your safety.
Great and suitable variants are for example some lights from the LED lighting series or similar outdoor lights. Everything depends on your taste and the type of pool you have. The proper layout also plays a very important role, as it is important to know where you are in the pool. So every corner of the pool should be illuminated. It is best to place the lights on the sides and keep a sufficient distance between them. Lights should be ideally around the whole pool. If you have a bigger pool where you need to use stairs, then you need to put a light near the stairs too for safe entering. However, it is not advised to perform their actual installation on your own. It is really necessary to leave this work to an expert so that everything meets safety standards so that you and your family or friends are safe.
The surroundings of the pool and its access path
Pool lighting is definitely very important. However, you need to get to the pool first, and that is the reason to illuminate its surrounding area and the entire path that takes you to it. The surroundings can be illuminated by solar lights.
Driveway lights are suitable for the access path. In terms of the design of the whole area, it is good to place some garden lamps around the pool. Try placing them at a sufficient distance from the pool. They shouldn't be too far away so that they fulfill their main purpose of illuminating the pool area.
