Collection: Well Lights

Total Light well lights provide low-profile, in-ground illumination for trees, architectural features, lawn areas, and landscape beds. Their recessed design keeps the fixture close to grade so the lighting effect stays visually prominent while the fixture itself remains discreet. Choose from available styles and pair with compatible low-voltage system components for a clean, coordinated installation.

Use In-Ground Lighting When the Fixture Should Stay Discreet

Well lights recess the fixture body near grade so the lighting effect can take visual priority over the hardware. They are useful for trees, architectural features, lawn areas, and planting beds where a low-profile fixture is preferred.

The top style affects both appearance and how the light leaves the fixture. A clear glass top offers an open upward view of the beam, while a louvered top can help shield and control the visible light from certain viewing angles. Match the top and lamp to the intended effect.

Plan for the In-Ground Environment

Because a well light sits at or near grade, location and site conditions matter. Consider drainage, soil, irrigation, debris, service access, and the cable route before installation. Total Light well-light configurations use compatible MR16 lamps, allowing output and beam characteristics to be selected for the target.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a well light and a standard uplight?

Both can create an upward lighting effect, but a well light is recessed near grade while a typical uplight is mounted above grade on a stake or other support.

What is the difference between a clear and louvered well-light top?

A clear top provides a more open path for the light, while a louvered top adds shielding that can reduce direct view of the source from certain angles.

What type of lamp is used in Total Light well lights?

The Total Light well-light body and complete well-light products in this collection are designed around compatible MR16 lamps. Check the product specifications for the exact lamp requirements.

What site conditions should I consider before installing a well light?

Consider drainage, irrigation, soil conditions, debris, service access, cable routing, and whether the chosen location keeps the fixture suitable for the intended in-ground installation.
