The study seeks to analyze performance and effectiveness of LED replacement lamps and LED lighting systems as an alternate to conventional incandescent pool lighting ranging from 300 Watt (W)/R40 to 500W/R40. The study evaluated two LED screw-in retrofit replacement lamps and one dedicated LED lighting system replacement. In addition, the study used five pools and three Jacuzzi/spas as test sites. The five pool test sites included two residential style pools and two lap pools at the Marriott Desert Springs resort and the Villas in Palm Desert, CA, and a leisure style pool at the Hyatt in Westlake Village, CA. Two of the three Jacuzzi/spas were adjacent to pools at the Marriott Desert Springs the a third at the Hyatt Westlake Village (WLV).
