Pond Lighting Guide

Underwater, spot and path lights for water features: LED types, color temperature and where to aim them.

The right light makes a water feature glow after dark. Low-voltage LED fixtures are safe, bright and inexpensive to run. Underwater lights make falls shimmer and show off fish. Spot lights wash stone and plants. Path lights guide the way.

Warm white is the most pleasing color for most ponds. Cool white can look harsh. Fixtures should be shielded, aimed away from the house windows and placed so the source is hidden. A timer or a smart controller keeps them on when you want them.
