How much does it cost to install pool lighting in my pool?

It is always more expensive to install pool lighting in an existing pool than in a new pool. For our PP Pools, the spot for the pool light is already cut out and the lamp housing is installed at delivery. For Thermopools, the lamp must be installed before casting the walls. For pools, there are LED lights with white light or LED lights that are multicolored. With a multicolored so-called RGB light, you can choose whether you want a fixed light of different colors or rotating colors. The lamp works so that if you cut the power to the lamp for a short period (<100ms), the lamp changes color. If the power is cut for a longer period, the lamp turns off and retains the previous color.

To change the color, there is a remote control accessory that works exactly as described above, i.e., it cuts the power for a short period to change the color and for a longer period to turn the lamp off and on.

An LED lamp with white light and a white ABS plastic cover can cost anywhere from 2500kr up to 8900kr, while an RGB LED lamp costs about 1000kr and ranges from 3500kr to 9900kr. There are also stainless steel lamps that cost significantly more. However, these lamps cannot be used in a saltwater pool.

How many lamps should a pool have?

A private pool ranging in size from 3 x 6 m up to 5 x 10 m usually has 2 lamps. The lamps are always placed evenly along the long side so that the light shines away from the house or where you enter the pool to avoid glare.

Larger pools, such as public pools, usually have a pool lamp every other meter to provide sufficient light.

Can I install a pool lamp in an existing pool?

Unfortunately, it is a difficult procedure, but it is definitely possible! You need to drain the water from the pool and also open the outside of the pool to access the pool wall. Then you install the lamp in the pool and connect it to a transformer. For a PP Pool or steel pool, this is a simple operation, whereas for a thermopool it is considerably more complicated since the walls have already been cast and you have to chisel away part of the concrete.
