Pool Lighting Tip!

Hello Everyone! Here is a simple lighting tip that is very green, quite dramatic, and works on typical pool light fixtures.Try using a colored Compact Fluorescent lamp to replace the 500 Watt Incandescent light bulb commonly used! We use a 11 watt Prolume CFL. They come in Blue, Red, Yellow and Green colors. The drama from this lamp is caused by the travel of light molecules through water, coloring the water and never leaving the confines of the pool structure itself. This makes the pool shape glow, and the landscape lighting around the pool stands alone. It also uses nearly 5000% less energy! That's very green and the "look" is beautiful. We are lighting specialists and we only recommend using the brand mentioned above. The lamp life is consistant and its a designer lamp so they are color constant and very long life.Hope you use this tip! It's a lot of bang for no money! Helps with that "tight" client!Jim Lehmanwww.accentlightingdesigns.com
