Lighting Saunas and Pools Just Got Easier with Pixel-Free LED Solutions
When it comes to lighting design, few environments pose a greater challenge than saunas and pools. The combination of high temperatures, excessive moisture, and exposure to chemicals makes it nearly impossible for traditional LEDs to perform reliably over time. Many lighting solutions degrade, discolor, or outright fail in these conditions, leaving designers and installers with limited options.
At Ellumiglow, we’ve set out to change that. With our SPECIAL ORDER line of Pixel-Free LED Commercial, Pixel-Free LED Trim, and Pixel-Free LED Roll, lighting for extreme environments is no longer a struggle. These LEDs have been specifically engineered to withstand heat, humidity, and harsh chemicals, making them the perfect solution for saunas, steam rooms, pools, spas, and water features.
The Problem: Why Most LEDs Fail in Extreme Conditions
Traditional LED strips and fixtures are designed for controlled indoor environments, where temperature and humidity are relatively stable. However, in environments like saunas, steam rooms, and pools, LEDs are exposed to:
- Extreme Temperatures – Saunas can reach temperatures of 150°F+, which can cause most LED adhesives to fail and internal components to degrade rapidly.
- Excessive Moisture – High humidity and direct water exposure lead to condensation inside LED housings, resulting in electrical failures and corrosion.
- Chemical Exposure – Chlorine, bromine, and other pool chemicals break down LED coatings, causing premature yellowing, discoloration, or degradation of materials.
Even with waterproof ratings like IP67 or IP68, many LED products fail because they aren’t built to withstand these elements over time.
The Solution: Pixel-Free LED Built for Harsh Environments
Unlike standard LEDs, our Pixel-Free LED Commercial, Pixel-Free LED Trim, and Pixel-Free LED Roll are designed from the ground up to thrive in extreme conditions. Here’s what makes them different:
Injection Molding for Complete Sealing
One of the key innovations behind our Pixel-Free LED line is our injection molding process, which fully encapsulates the LED components. This process eliminates common failure points like seams, adhesives, and gaps, ensuring:
✔ 100% waterproof sealing
✔ Protection against heat damage
✔ Resistance to harsh pool and spa chemicals
Heat-Resistant Design for Saunas and Steam Rooms
Our LEDs use advanced materials designed to withstand the extreme heat of saunas without warping, discoloration, or melting. Unlike traditional LED strips that rely on adhesive backing, our lighting solutions maintain their structure and functionality even in high-temperature environments.
True Pixel-Free Lighting for Aesthetic Appeal
Not only are our LEDs built to last, but they also provide a smooth, dot-free illumination that enhances the ambiance of any space. Whether you’re lighting the contours of a pool, outlining a sauna bench, or creating a soothing glow in a steam room, our Pixel-Free LEDs deliver unmatched visual appeal without harsh hotspots.
