New EU legislation concerning the phase out of less energy effiecient lamps has drawen attention to Certikin 100w Halogen light bulbs. The 100w bulbs that cost up to 5 times more to run than LED bulbs have now stopped being manufactured as they will soon seen as too wasteful and be obsolete.

Certikin are soon to be releasing a Halogen to LED conversion kit to make it easy to convert your pool from Halogen Lighting to LED Lighting. As soon as we have the kit in stock we will post them up for you to purchase.

Swimming pool lighting love it or hate it is a hugely important part of the swimming pool experience, Just Recently on some of our service rounds our Qualified swimming pool engineers have been dealing with some sticky situations regarding swimming pool lighting.

often when older pools were constructed at the time of construction little knowledge was arround on how voltage drop would effect bulb life, this has a huge impact upon what cable size is choosen for the light in the pool.

an example recently has seen the conversation of an old Marbline swimming pool in Marlow Buckinghamshire become converted to a new underwater light transformer and LED light, we have retro fitted a certikin guts to a very old metal niche.

so if you have problems with grey lamps, obsolete underwater spares or just need general lighting advice and help please feel free to call

During the construction of my own personal swimming pool I made a few decisions based on:

1. Running costs of standard par 56 300w swimming pool lamps

2. Flexibility between colours

3 and finally Maintenance

4. Style

ok running costs may not be an awful lot for old style certikin lamp bulbs, but in this every eco friendly environment we are now moving forward into, surely there is an alternative? Many different bulb types have come and gone over the year’s halogen etc however LED swimming pool lighting is making a really good come back within the swimming pool industry, receiving great reviews for low power consumption. And the ability to change the colour and mood of the pool.

 The ability to change the lighting colour was important to me, often some systems have a remote control to change the colour or other complicated systems however I knew I was highly likely to lose the remote, so I opted for a simple switch operation to control my pool lighting linked to the savi note control box, the savi note lights have various settings so you can adjust the colours and scroll through the lighting patterns which is fab.

Maintenance, well we all know you should never have to drain a swimming pool to change and underwater light, however the installation height specification on the savi note lights suggest only a low submersion into the swimming pool water, honestly I was in fear the illumination would be weak, however I will let you be the judge of this by the photos below.

 and the most important factor was style, for years we have wondered why the swimming trade cannot develop an underwater light that is compact and discreet in the daylight periods let’s face it the old style 300mm porthole lights look absolutely huge and your eyes are drawn to them all the time! The savi note underwater lights are not too dissimilar to an average kitchen down lighter compact small approx 95mm including the face plate so a lot smaller than traditional standard lighting systems.

Comments on the savi note lights really would be appreciated and please feel free to call and discuss further detail about savi note LED swimming pool lighting as now we really do have firsthand experience of them. All in all a big thumbs up for savi note lights from us.

Cost

(Well they are a little more expensive but the better items normally are)
