Small underwater lights will need to be fitted inside your pool to illuminate the water and allow people to swim by night. LED pool lights are another more energy efficient underwater lighting option. Moreover, you might want to try floating pool lights out which enhance the relaxing pool environment.
Additionally sand based, or other kind of material, pool cleaners will contribute to your lighting plans by keeping the water clean and transparent.
