Why Add Underwater LED Lighting to Your Backyard Spa?

Hello, my name is Frankie and I run a guest house situated in the town of Howard's Creek in Western Australia. I am 54 years old and live and work with my wife Shelia. Our business was doing OK but a friend suggested it could do even better if we installed a swimming pool for our guest. My wife was reluctant at first, but I soon talked her around to the idea. It cost quite a bit but the contractors were really professional. Since we installed the pool, the bookings in our guest house have increased greatly. I decided to start a blog to encourage others to install a pool.

Why Add Underwater LED Lighting to Your Backyard Spa?

If you look at modern spa parts, you'll see that there are options beyond air injectors and heat pumps. Beyond these more vital components, there are plenty of parts that you can add to your spa merely to make it a more enjoyable place to be, and one of the most common additions is underwater LED lights.

LED lights can last between 15,000 and 50,000 hours, so you won't need to worry about them burning out anytime soon, and they consume very light energy. Here are just a few reasons why you should fit them in your spa.

Makes for Fantastic Night-time Use

Many people enjoy using their spas in the evening; after all, what's better than relaxing into their hot, soothing water after a long day? LED lighting lets you stay in after it gets dark. You'll still be able to see enough of the world around you, but you won't have to turn on the glare of your main outside lights. It can be a fantastic experience to sit back and take in the night sky above you, and it's much easier to sit in the spa with some friends during the night when you can all still see each other and talk.

Adds Style to Your Backyard

Spas are made to look good, but you can dramatically enhance their overall style by fitting LED underwater lights. If you use plain lights, you'll find that the backyard looks nicely lit up during the evening, and the bubbles will look more mesmerizing as they rise with light around them. However, you can also go for coloured LED bulbs if you want something a little more vibrant. Try adding a dash of colour to the outside of your property by using LED bulbs.

Makes Your Spa Safer

Most spas in Australia are above-ground, though it isn't rare to find sunken ones next to pools. Safety is always a concern with sunken spas since it can be easy for people, or even animals, to fall into them. LED lighting will make things clearer. Though safety isn't such a concern when you're dealing with an above-ground spa, it's still something to consider, and LED lighting can once again make things safer. For example, it can be relatively easy to trip and fall as you get in and out of the spa when there isn't much light outside, but LED underwater lighting can help illuminate your way.
