LED Pool and Spa Lighting (White and Colored)

LED pool and spa lighting uses up to 95% less energy and last up to 20 times longer than traditional incandescent lighting. In addition,they can change colors.

White LED lights

White LED lights are most often used for commercial pool and spa lighting such as apartments or fitness centers and condominiums where the light runs every night. However,some homeowners who use the light a lot but want more light than a color light may choose this option.

The advantage of these types of replacement lights/bulbs over standard lighting is a longer lasting bulb that uses 90% or less electricity. As an example,a standard 500 watt light used 12 hours a day cost about 262.00 a year at 12 cents a kilowatt hour. The first light below would cost 10.00 for a year....now combine that with labor/material to change bulb once or twice a year and multiply that by four or five years and the savings could be well over $2,000 PER light!

A Standard pool or spa light fixture uses 300 to 500 watts of electricity and has a life span of about 2,500 hours (the bulb,not the entire fixture).

Buying a replacement LED bulb is generally less than buying an entire light fixture and the labor cost is less too. I can get you any of these lights just contact me for info.


The LED white light fixture above is a replacement for a standard floodlight type bulb in a swimming pool or spa light fixture. The metal face is a heat sink to dissipate heat. This light has a two year warranty,runs on 20 watts producing light almost equal to a 400 watt incandescent bulb and is rated at 20,000 hours. The best white replacement LED bulb in my opinion. Below is a link to their site:

The light above uses 45 watts,puts out light equal to a 300 watt incandescent bulb,is rated at 50,000 hours and comes with a three year warranty. The reason for the longer warranty/life and greater energy consumption than the previous unit with heat sink is this unit has a built in cooling fan.

The opaque center section is to diffuse the light and give it a softer,incandescent look. Below is a link to the company sight:

The light fixture above uses 70 watts with an output equal to a 500 watt incandescent light and rated at 30,000 hours. I believe the warranty is only a year,but the warranty on ALL LED lights is void if the bulb/electronics get wet so ALWAYS use a new gasket when replacing bulb. The nice thing about this light is it is a factory sealed unit and is the brightest white LED light,the best choice if you are buying entire fixture and brightness is more important than energy usage and warranty.Link below for more information:

Color LED Pool and Spa Lights

Color LED pool and spa lights fade from one color to the next up to eight colors. Some can be programed to fade fast or slowly from red to purple to blue to green to amber or just two colors like green to blue.

The original lights were not very bright but the third generation lights are brighter than ever and some come with up to three years warranty.

The light bulb below is a Color Splash light with a built in cooling fan I can get these at a pretty good price. These bulbs are great for existing light fixtures if you get the 3rd generation light they are brighter and run cooler the best color bulb in my opinion.Link for more information below photo.
