If you are requesting a quote for fiber optic light you need an illuminator plus the fiber optic cable. The 32 OR 40 strand cable goes around the perimeter of the pool.
Consider the following information:
Pool perimeter of pool.
Possible light source location (How far from the pool).The following are approximate distances around pools:
12' Round - 38'
15' Round - 48'
18' Round - 57'
21' Round - 66'
24' Round - 76'
27' Round - 85'
12' x 24' Oval - 62'
15' x 24' Oval - 67'
15' x 30' Oval - 78'
17' x 33' Oval - 87'To do a quick calculation on the cost of Fiber Optic Lighting, you would need to do the following:
Pick the light source that you want.
The perimeter fiber optic cable is flexible, and is approximately ¾” high by 3/8” thick. It is made by Optic Light. Their web site is at http://www.opticlight.com/. To calculate cost of perimeter fiber optic cable take the distance from the light source to the pool, around the pool and back to the light source, and add 3’. Use our price for 32 or 40 strand cable and multiply that amount by the total footage.
REMEMBER NOT TO UNDER ESTIMATE THE CABLE AS IT CANNOT BE SPLICED.
To calculate cost of garden lighting pick your landscape/accent fixtures and decide where you want to put each one. Run 12 strand cable to each one (one way distance) plus 3’. Add up the total and that will give you the cost of the landscape lighting.
