A pool isn't just for swimming during the day; it is the aesthetic heart of your garden at night. If you are still using old 300W halogen spotlights, you are spending a fortune on electricity and missing the chance to create magical atmospheres. At Servinmosol, we replace your old lighting system with state-of-the-art LED technology, combining efficiency, safety, and design.
The Halogen Problem vs. The LED Solution
Traditionally, pools were lit with 300-watt incandescent bulbs (PAR56 type). These lights have three major problems: they consume huge amounts of electricity, generate a lot of heat (which burns seals and causes leaks), and have a very short lifespan, burning out frequently.
Switching to LED changes everything:
- Massive Energy Savings: An equivalent LED spotlight illuminates as much or more while consuming only between 15W and 30W. This means savings of over 90% on your electricity bill. You can keep your pool lit every night without worrying about the cost.
- Extreme Durability: While a halogen lasts about 1,000 hours, a high-quality LED light can exceed 50,000 hours of lifespan. Forget about changing bulbs every season.
Pure White or RGB Colors: You Decide
LED technology allows us to play with light like never before. We adapt the installation to your tastes:
White Light (Cool or Warm)
Ideal for those seeking elegance and sobriety. Cool white light gives the water a crystalline bluish look, very modern, while warm white mimics the tone of old halogens but with the power of LED.
RGB System (Multicolor)
Do you want a blue pool for relaxing, red for a party, or one that gently changes color? With RGB systems, we install a modulator that allows you to control everything:
- Remote control to turn on, off, and change sequences.
- WiFi/App control from your mobile phone, allowing you to integrate the pool lighting with smart assistants like Alexa or Google Home.
- Perfect synchronization: if you have multiple lights, they will all change color in unison.
Technical Installation & Safety
Switching to LED isn't just changing a lightbulb; it requires technical knowledge to ensure watertightness. At Servinmosol, we handle the entire process:
- Niche Check: We verify that the embedded niche (the hole in the wall) is in good condition.
- Seals and Gland Replacement: This is the critical point. A poorly sealed spotlight is the number one cause of silent water leaks in pools. We change the rubber gaskets and seal the cable exit (cable gland) to prevent water from leaking through the pipe into the electrical box.
- Electrical Adaptation: LEDs run on 12V, but sometimes require specific Direct Current (DC) or Alternating Current (AC) transformers depending on the model. We check and replace your transformer if necessary to prevent flickering or damage to the lights.
In 95% of cases, NO. If the original installation was done correctly, there should be extra cable coiled inside the niche. This allows us to pull the light fixture up to the coping stone and perform the change dry, without wasting a single drop of water.
Old light fixtures and their conduits are a major source of hidden leaks. If you're upgrading to LED, it's the perfect time to check for watertightness.
