A well-designed outdoor space rarely comes from a single source. Materials, planting, furniture, architectural lighting and finishes are selected for their individual qualities and for how well they work together.
Pool equipment can be approached in much the same way. For convenience, pumps, chlorination, control systems and lighting are often purchased as a package from one manufacturer. While this can simplify the equipment selection, it can also mean the lighting is chosen because it matches the controller, rather than because it delivers the best result in the pool.
And unlike much of the equipment pad, the lighting is something people can actually see.
Spa Electrics has specialised in pool and spa lighting for 50 years.
Spa Electrics is an Australian manufacturer that does not produce pumps, filters or chlorinators. Its focus is premium, high quality underwater lighting and the equipment that supports it. The award-winning products have been developed specifically for the demands of underwater environments, with a focus on performance, reliability, installation and control.
MULTIPLUS is Spa Electrics’ RGB+W colour-changing LED lighting system, available across its full range of pool and spa light models for new concrete, fibreglass and retrofit applications. Unlike standard RGB lighting, MULTIPLUS includes a true 4000K white, giving designers a clean, natural white option alongside seven static colours and four colour shows.
As pools become more integrated into the broader landscape and outdoor living environment, the ability to adjust light intensity is increasingly valuable. When paired with the iRIS Lighting Controller, MULTIPLUS offers three brightness levels, allowing the pool lighting to be balanced with surrounding architectural and landscape lighting, softened for entertaining, or given greater visual emphasis when desired
MULTIPLUS also features 9 built-in operating modes designed to integrate with all major pool control platforms, including AstralPool’s Halo. This gives builders and councils the option to select the control system that best suits the wider pool equipment package while still choosing specialist underwater lighting. For designers, this means the pool lighting can be considered as part of the finished outdoor environment, rather than simply as another component on the equipment schedule.
The lighting should be selected for the way it performs in the water and contributes to the space.
As outdoor areas become increasingly connected and adaptable, compatibility between manufacturers gives designers, builders and councils more freedom to select specialist products from different brands.
After 50 years focused on pool and spa lighting, Spa Electrics believes the light should be chosen for the same reason as every other considered element of an outdoor project: because it is right for the job.
