Pool Lights

Featuring the best pool lights in New Zealand

When it comes to pool lights only the best should be considered. It’s not just a matter of appearance, but also safety for all who use the pool throughout the year, especially after sunset. There’s a great opportunity to create a variety of moods and atmospheres too with LED pool lights that have adjustable dimmers and a range of different colours. ArchiPro features only the best swimming pool lights in New Zealand, an important part of a wider range of high-quality pool surround equipment.

Types of pool lights

When it comes to choosing lights for your pool, there are a few different options to consider. Some of the most popular ones in New Zealand include:

Flush-mounted underwater pool lights

Some pools are built with space for lighting. A flush-mounted underwater light will slot right in. These inconspicuous options fit into purpose-built spaces and don’t protrude.

Surface-mounted underwater pool lights

For an area that doesn’t have built-in lighting, underwater illuminations are still an option. They’re mounted to the sides or fitted on the bottom, blending in with the existing structure.

Flood lighting

Flood lighting can be used to light your pool area from above. These brighter options can be used in New Zealand to cover a larger area.

Garden Lighting

Strategically placed garden lighting can light areas for swimming too. It’s possible to add an LED pool light to waterfall features, trees and other parts of the landscaping.  

The advantages of high-quality pool lights

There are several advantages to choosing high-quality pool lights. Arguably, the two most important factors are safety and durability. Whether you choose underwater options or flood lighting, high-quality choices will mean corrosion-resistant materials that will withstand a wet environment day in and day out. High-quality pool lighting also comes with official waterproof ratings and uses ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCI), ensuring safe use for everyone. High-quality choices also use superior parts and components like LED lighting systems that last longer, offer tremendous lighting control and are energy efficient.

How to choose pool lights that are right for you

There are a few things to take into consideration when choosing pool lights that are right for you. The first is the current pool setup and where alcoves already exist for lights. If so, options like flush-mounted illuminations make a lot of sense as a sleek solution. If they don’t then your options are perhaps more open with surface-mounted, flood lighting and even garden lighting all viable. Aesthetics are also an important factor, not so much with regards to the physical lights themselves as they tend to be fairly discreet, but in terms of colour temperature and brightness and the number of lights you want.
