Where Should Pool Lights Be Placed?

Summer is just around the corner! Make sure your pool is ready for late-night swims and evening dinner parties with expertly installed lighting. Illuminate your backyard water feature with deck lighting, underwater & pool lights, and soft floating lights. 

We can help install lighting to both existing pools and those that are still under construction. Find out which type of lighting will best suit your backyard swimming space and dive into a beautifully-lit pool every night this season. 

POOL DECK LIGHTING

Make your pool deck stand out with solar sidewalk lighting. These lights are low to the ground and easily blend into the deck while shining the pathway to the pool. If your deck has stairs, consider placing LED tread lights underneath each step so no swimmer trips on their way to dive in!

For Houston homeowners with fencing around their pools, make sure to illuminate the barrier for nighttime swims. We can help you install post cap lights to create a soft brightness around your pool. Motion sensor lights are another great option for homeowners who want to prioritize safety and be quickly alerted of any late-night pool goers.

SUBMERSIBLE LIGHTING

Enjoy your pool after the sun goes down with submersible lights. Installing lights along the inside walls of your pool is a tried and true method. We can also place in-ground lights at the bottom of the pool to illuminate the water from below. 

Change your pool’s color with underwater lights to make the water come alive at night! Houston Lightscapes offers submersible lights that can change color with a wireless remote. Alter the color of the water with your mood while you sit poolside or take a midnight dip. 

LIGHT UP YOUR GREENERY

Enhance your poolside experience with garden lights. If you have an abundance of greenery in your backyard, consider placing LED lights at the base of bushes and trees to highlight the space around your pool. Above-ground lights can also be placed amongst the grass or in any planters. For a higher placement, we can install weatherproof spotlights in tree branches or attach them to the pool deck walls.

FLOATING POOL LIGHTS

For the creative homeowner, try placing floating lights in your pool! Floating lights are a fun and whimsical way to illuminate your outdoor swimming space. These lights are solar-powered and safe to float around your pool throughout the day. Keep it minimalistic with soft white lights or customize them to change color in the water.
