How to Install Pool Lighting in the Casing of a Steel Wall Pool

Adding lights to your pool is an easy way to bring light and beauty to your outdoor space. But if you don’t plan your pool lighting carefully, the results could be disappointing. For the best effect, favour a minimum number of spotlights and place them at mid-height. This will highlight your pool’s contours and reveal the depth of your pool.

A well-lit pool is a pleasure to swim in, and also gives an external atmosphere that enhances the structure of your steel wall pool. However, as with any electrical system, it is important to take maximum precautions and always work under a professional’s supervision. Only a qualified electrician can safely install your pool lights.

Before beginning to change a pool light, make sure that the circuit connecting to it is completely turned off. You can use a non-contact voltage tester to check for this. If you are not sure that the switch is OFF, it is recommended that you contact your pool manufacturer to ensure that the power has been turned off.

If your pool liner has an overlap, monitor it closely during filling to ensure that you do not stretch the vinyl beyond its limits. Wrinkles in the liner that are too large to be pushed flat by the weight of water can crack or tear it. For this reason, it is often a good idea to wait until an inch of water is in the pool before trying to rework any major wrinkles that are forming.

There are a few different types of pool lights available to choose from, including LED, incandescent and fiber optic. LEDs are generally considered to be the safest and most energy efficient of all options, as they emit a very low level of heat while giving off a great deal of light. In addition, LEDs last much longer than incandescent bulbs and are able to be positioned very close to the floor of the pool.

For those who prefer a more traditional approach, incandescent bulbs are still an excellent option. In addition to being very affordable, incandescent lights provide a brighter and more natural-looking light than most other pool lighting options. In addition, incandescent lights are relatively easy to replace when the bulb burns out.
