# How We Install the Jandy TruClear XL Salt Chlorinator

Looking to enjoy crystal-clear pool water without the hassle of traditional chlorine? At **Oasis Lighting Design**, we recently installed a **Jandy TruClear XL Salt Chlorinator** for a residential client—and here’s a quick breakdown of how it works and how we install it professionally.

## What Is a Salt Chlorinator?

The Jandy TruClear XL is a powerful salt chlorinator that turns ordinary salt into pure chlorine, keeping your pool water clean and safe—without the harsh chemical feel. It’s ideal for pools up to 45,000 gallons and automatically produces chlorine as your system runs.

---

## What You’ll Need

Before we begin installation, we always ensure the following:

- Proper salt level: **3000 ppm** minimum
- Clean, balanced pool water (tested for pH, calcium, stabilizer, etc.)
- A horizontal 2” or 2.5” return line section, at least 16" long

---

## Installation Steps

### 1. Water Chemistry First

We test and balance the water—checking calcium hardness, pH, stabilizer (CYA), and salt levels. Poor water chemistry can ruin the system and void your warranty.

### 2. Pipe Prep

We select a straight, horizontal pipe section after all pool equipment (filter, heater, etc.), then cut a 14.5” gap for the chlorinator cell.

### 3. Install the Cell

The cell is cemented in place with union fittings and aligned with the correct flow direction. We ensure no leaks and let the cement dry completely.

### 4. Electrical Setup

Our licensed team wires the TruClear XL to a **GFCI-protected breaker** and bonds it to your existing pool equipment ground. It’s always interlocked with the pool pump—so it only runs when water is flowing.

### 5. Salt Addition

If needed, we add high-purity, non-iodized salt (≥99.8% NaCl) directly into the pool—not through the skimmer—and circulate the system for even mixing.

### 6. Startup & Configuration

Once salinity is confirmed, we power on the chlorinator, set the chlorine output (typically 40–60%), and educate you on how to monitor and maintain it weekly.

How We Install the Jandy TruClear XL Salt Chlorinator


# Low Voltage Landscape Lighting Install

If you’re wondering whether you can install low-voltage landscape lighting yourself, the answer is: **yes, and it’s easier than you think**. With some planning, basic tools, and the right components, you can transform your yard with a lighting system that looks professional — without the pro price tag.

---

## What Is Low Voltage Landscape Lighting?

Low voltage lighting typically runs at **12 volts**, powered by a **transformer** that steps down your home’s standard 120V. It’s ideal for outdoor use because it’s **safer**, **more energy-efficient**, and easier to DIY than high-voltage setups.

You’ll often find it in:

- Pathway lights
- Uplights on trees
- Spotlights for architectural features
- Deck and step lighting

---

## What Do I Need to Install It?

Here’s a quick checklist:

- ✅ **Transformer** (converts 120V to 12V)
- ✅ **12/2 or 14/2 low-voltage cable**
- ✅ **LED or halogen fixtures**
- ✅ **Waterproof wire connectors**
- ✅ **Trenching tool** (flat shovel or edger works)
- ✅ **Timer or photocell** (optional for automation)

> Pro Tip: Buy a transformer with more wattage than you currently need — this leaves room for future lights.

---

## How Do I Plan My Layout?

Before buying anything, walk your yard at dusk and imagine where lighting will improve safety or highlight focal points like trees, walkways, or entryways.

### Simple rules to follow:

- Place **path lights** every 6–8 feet
- Use **uplights** to accent trees or columns
- Avoid over-lighting — balance is key
- Use **2700K–3000K** warm color temp for a cozy glow

---

## How Deep Should I Bury the Wire?

While it’s technically okay to lay the wire on top of mulch or under rocks, the best practice is to **bury it 4–6 inches deep**. This protects it from:

- Lawn mowers
- Foot traffic
- Weather damage
- Curious pets or wildlife

Use a flat spade, trenching tool, or even a manual lawn edger to create a quick slit for the cable.

---

## Do I Need a Conduit?

For most residential installs, **no conduit is required** for 12V wire — but it’s still a smart idea around:

- Driveways or walkways
- Rodent-prone areas
- Heavy equipment zones

---

## Does Polarity Matter?

Most modern LED landscape fixtures are **polarity-insensitive**, meaning it doesn’t matter which wire connects where. They’ll still work. But always read the instructions — some older systems may be sensitive.

---

## How Long Will It Take?

Depends on your setup:

- 🔹 4–6 lights: **2–3 hours**
- 🔹 10–12 lights: **a weekend**
- 🔹 Full yard or multi-zone installs: **hire a pro or block off a few weekends**

---

## Common Mistakes to Avoid

1. **Too many lights** – Looks like an airport runway. Focus on balance and intention.
2. **No plan** – Sketch it out before buying gear.
3. **Underestimating voltage drop** – Long wire runs? Use heavier gauge wire (like 12/2).
4. **Skipping waterproof connectors** – Your system won’t last long without them.

---

## Should I DIY or Hire a Pro?

If you:

- Are comfortable with basic wiring
- Enjoy working outside
- Want to save on labor costs

Then **DIY is absolutely doable**. But if you need permits, have complex zoning, or just want perfect results — calling a professional might be worth it.

---

## Final Thoughts

Low voltage landscape lighting isn’t just for aesthetics — it adds real **value, security, and ambiance** to your home. Whether you’re uplighting a beautiful oak tree or guiding guests safely down a path, the right lighting makes all the difference.

Plan it out, keep it simple, and don’t forget: **warm light, clean wiring, and waterproof connections go a long way**.

# Landscape Lighting Installation Tips

Installing landscape lighting is one of the best ways to boost curb appeal, improve safety, and enjoy your yard after dark. But here’s the thing — **placement and planning matter** just as much as the fixtures themselves.

Whether you’re going DIY or hiring a pro, these tips will help you get the best results for your time and money.

---

## Plan Before You Dig

Don’t just start laying wire. Sketch your property and mark where you'd like lights. Include:

- Pathways and stairs
- Focal points (trees, water features, sculptures)
- Driveways and property lines
- Architectural features like columns or stone textures

Think of your lighting as layers — like ambient, task, and accent light indoors.

---

## Use Low-Voltage for DIY Installs

Low-voltage systems (12V) are safer and easier for homeowners. You’ll need:

- A **transformer** to convert 120V to 12V
- **12/2 or 14/2 landscape wire**
- Waterproof **connectors**
- LED **fixtures** rated for outdoor use

---

## Proper Placement = Professional Look

Here’s where most people go wrong — over-lighting or under-lighting.

### Pathway Tips:

- Space lights **6–8 feet apart**
- Offset from the walkway edge to avoid glare
- Stagger on either side for balance

### Accent Tips:

- Uplight trees and columns at **a 30–45° angle**
- Downlight from trees to mimic moonlight
- Avoid pointing lights directly at windows

---

## Avoid These Common Mistakes

- **Too many lights:** It looks harsh and unnatural
- **Wrong color temperature:** Stick to **2700K–3000K** for warm, inviting glow
- **No zoning:** Group lights by area so you can control them more efficiently
- **Skipping the wire map:** You'll thank yourself when maintenance time rolls around

---

## How Long Does It Take to Install?

- **Small system (4–6 lights):** 2–3 hours
- **Mid-size (10–15 lights):** 1 weekend
- **Professional install:** 1–3 days depending on trenching and layout

Landscape Lighting Installation Tips


# Can I Install My Own Landscape Lighting?

Absolutely — **you can install your own landscape lighting**, and many homeowners do. Thanks to the rise of **12V low-voltage lighting kits**, DIY projects have never been easier or safer. With a bit of planning, a few tools, and the right products, you can **transform your yard after dark** with beautiful lighting that enhances safety, curb appeal, and outdoor enjoyment.

That said, there’s a line between a simple weekend project and something that might be better left to the pros.

---

## Why Is Landscape Lighting So Expensive?

People are often surprised by the cost of professional installs. It’s not just the fixtures — you're also paying for:

- **High-quality materials** (brass and copper last longer than plastic)
- **Expert design** for balanced illumination
- **Labor for trenching and wiring**
- **Smart timers or zoning controls**

DIY kits can significantly reduce the cost — but remember, **quality still matters**.

---

## Can I Install Lighting Myself?

Yes — and many homeowners do. You’ll need:

- A **transformer** (converts 120V to safe 12V)
- **Low-voltage wire** (typically 12/2 or 14/2 gauge)
- Weatherproof **fixtures** and **connectors**

Layout your design first, use a trenching tool to bury wire (usually 4–6 inches deep), and make sure all connections are water-tight.

---

## Do Landscape Lights Use a Lot of Electricity?

Not with LEDs! Each LED fixture uses **4–7 watts**, compared to 20–50 watts for old-school halogens. Most systems are incredibly energy-efficient and cost just a few bucks per month to operate.

---

## Does Landscape Lighting Wire Need to Be Buried?

Technically, no — but **it’s strongly recommended**. Buried wire:

- Prevents damage from lawn equipment
- Keeps things looking clean and tidy
- Protects from weather and UV damage

Use a flat spade or edging tool for quick trenching.

---

## How Long Does It Take to Install Landscape Lighting?

- **Small DIY systems** (4–6 lights): 2–4 hours
- **Medium setups** (10–12 lights): 1 weekend
- **Professional installs**: 1–3 days, depending on layout and complexity

---

## Do You Need Planning Permission for Garden Lighting?

Usually not. Most **low-voltage lighting systems don’t require permits**. However, check with your local HOA or town if you live in a community with regulations.

---

## Can You Overdo Landscape Lighting?

Yes — and it’s a common DIY mistake. Too many lights can make your yard feel like a runway. Focus on:

- Pathways
- Entryways
- Key landscaping elements (trees, statues, etc.)

Stick to warm color temps (**2700K–3000K**) for a natural glow.

---

## Can I Install Outside Lights Myself?

Yes, but **stick to low-voltage (12V) systems** for safety. Avoid working directly with 120V line voltage unless you’re experienced or working with an electrician.

---

## How Much Does It Cost to Have Landscape Lighting Installed?

- **DIY**: $300–$1,500 depending on quality and number of lights
- **Pro install**: $2,500–$7,500+ for design, trenching, and wiring

---

## Does Landscape Lighting Add Value?

Definitely. Curb appeal, safety, and ambiance all contribute to **higher home value**. It’s a feature buyers notice — especially in photos.

---

## Can You Install an Outdoor Light Without a Ground Wire?

For **low-voltage systems**, grounding isn’t usually required — the transformer handles that. For line-voltage (120V) installations, a ground wire is **mandatory** for safety and code compliance.

---

## How Far Can You Run 12V Landscape Lighting?

This depends on:

- **Wire gauge**
- **Wattage load**
- **Transformer size**

As a rule of thumb:

- **12/2 wire**: Up to 100 feet for 100 watts
- Use **voltage drop calculators** if running long distances or many fixtures.
