PAR LED Bulbs & Lamps

PAR LED Bulbs and Lamps: Also for Pools

Discover our range of PAR LED bulbs and PAR lamps, high-power reflector lamps with a controlled beam, perfect for directional lighting outdoors, in gardens, shops and projectors. In addition, we have pool bulbs and submersible lamps designed to light the inside of pools, ponds and fountains with complete safety and minimal consumption. A versatile and durable solution for any project.

PAR LED bulbs for directional lighting

PAR LED bulbs (Parabolic Aluminized Reflector) are lamps with an internal aluminium reflector that direct light precisely. You'll find them in PAR16, PAR20, PAR30, PAR36 and PAR38 formats, with wattages between 5W and 25W and light beams between 15° (spot) and 40° (flood). They directly replace old PAR halogens with energy savings of up to 85% and a service life 25 times longer.

PAR lamps for outdoor and projectors

The PAR lamp is the preferred choice in outdoor projectors, garden floodlights, façade lighting, canopies and porches. Its robust housing and IP65 protection rating guarantee resistance to rain and dust. They are also used in event lighting, stages and decorative props, where power and directionality are essential.

PAR56 LED pool bulbs

Pool bulbs in PAR56 format directly replace old 300W lamps in residential and communal pools. They run at 12V low voltage, offer wattages of 18W to 35W (equivalent to a traditional 200-300W) and are available in white or multicolour RGB light with a remote control to create spectacular effects. Compatible with existing standard pool niches.

Submersible lamps for fountains and ponds

Our submersible lamps are approved with an IP68 protection rating, which guarantees total, continuous immersion with no leaks. They are perfect for lighting ornamental fountains, ponds, waterfalls, interactive fountains and water gardens. We stock white, RGB and RGBW models with remote control or DMX systems for integration into large landscaping projects.

Advantages of PAR LED bulbs over halogens

Replacing your old PAR halogen lamps or old pool bulbs means energy savings of up to 85%, a service life 25 times longer (50,000 hours), instant switch-on and no filament or moving parts. In pools, it also means you avoid draining the pool to replace the lamp for years.

How to choose the right PAR LED bulb

Consider the format (PAR16/20/30/36/38/56 according to the lampholder), the required light output, the beam angle, the IP rating according to the environment (minimum IP65 for outdoor, IP68 for submersible) and the voltage (12V with driver or 230V direct). For existing pools, check the compatible niche (PAR56 is the standard).

Frequently asked questions about PAR and pool LED bulbs

What does PAR mean in an LED bulb?

PAR stands for Parabolic Aluminized Reflector. PAR LED bulbs incorporate a parabolic aluminium reflector that directs light precisely, which makes them ideal for directional lighting outdoors, in shop windows, projectors and garden floodlights.

Can I replace my halogen pool bulb with a PAR56 LED?

Yes. PAR56 LED pool bulbs are compatible with existing standard pool niches and connect to the usual 12V transformer. Just make sure your transformer is in good condition and rated appropriately for the new LED consumption.

Can I use a submersible lamp in a fountain with constant water?

Yes, as long as the protection rating is IP68. Submersible lamps with this rating are approved for continuous immersion in water, whether in ponds, interactive fountains or waterfalls, with no risk of leaks.

What advantage does an RGB LED pool bulb have?

RGB LED pool bulbs let you change the light colour with a remote control, creating spectacular lighting effects and unique atmospheres for parties, events or everyday use. Many models include pre-programmed modes for gradual or synchronised changes.

Which beam angle should I choose for an outdoor PAR LED?

To light façades and trees from a distance, opt for narrow angles of 15°-25° (spot). To light large surfaces, gardens or porches, choose 30°-40° (flood). The size of the PAR (16, 20, 30, 38) also affects the final coverage.
