Water is a clear, transparent fluid that has no discernable hint of color in it — so why does pool water come in various shades of blue, green, or dark turquoise?

When designing your pool area, the water color needs to be considered for aesthetic uniformity – providing color blend or contrast throughout the space. What Gives Pool Water It’s Color? To some extent, yes, if you’re buying for a large public swimming baths or a fitness centre there will be a requirement for high levels of uniformity along the length of the pool, which often means multiple lights with a white output. However, for small to medium-sized pools more commonly installed at homes, hotels, and spas, a single light is frequently enough to illuminate the whole pool.

LED lights are generally between 70-90% more energy efficient than original incandescent and halogen light forms, and, significantly in pool lighting, they last for a near eternity! An incandescent lamp might only have a lifespan of 1,000 hours, or 2,000 hours for halogen, whereas LEDs tend to boast longevity of between 20,000 to 50,000 hours.
