Pool Light Repair and Replacement in Belle View

Pool lights are both a safety feature and an aesthetic feature. A lovely light glowing from the pool in the dusk of a summer evening adds to a relaxing end to a summer day. However, the same light with random flickering or dimness can make the same pool area spooky.

Pool light repair and replacement is a necessary part of pool ownership. Happily, today’s light fixtures and bulbs are built to last. Some bulbs are designed to last for 20 or more years, while the fixtures, with proper maintenance, can last just as long.

Halogen pool lights are losing popularity to LED pool lights. Let’s do a quick comparison.

Halogen

LED

Cons: more expensive than Halogen, not as bright as halogen

 

How do you replace a pool light?

As with any work with an electric appliance or device, the first step is always to turn off the power to the area—at the breaker box.  Turn off the breaker, then double check be flipping the switch to the lights.

Next, remove the single screw at the top of the fixture. This is probably a Philips head screw. You may not even have to get into the pool to do this.

Once the screw is out, you’ll need to pry the fixture out of the niche. A flat-head screwdriver is the best tool for this step but be sure not to damage the fixture or the niche.

Pull the fixture up to the deck of the pool.

Begin your repair. If you are changing the light bulb, be sure to use the same model bulb as the one you are replacing. Also be sure to replace the gaskets on the fixture to avoid allowing water into the fixture.

When selecting the pool lights for a new pool installation, consider how you will be using the pool. Will you be hosting nighttime swim events or parties around the pool? Or will you be using your pool mostly during daylight hours for exercise or family frolicking? The type of pool light fixture you choose will be influenced by the way you imagine your pool being used.

 

Common Pool Light Questions from Belle View Pool Owners

Do I need to drain the pool to fix the light?

No. Pool lights are designed to be removed from the niche and lifted out of the water. The only reason you would need to drain the pool would be if the wiring with the niche was damaged—in which case you would need to call a professional pool electrician.

Can I change the pool light bulb myself?

Of course, you can. Be sure to replace all the gaskets and get the light fixture sealed completely, or you will be replacing the fixture soon when water seeps in over time. Water damage to a fixture is the most frequent cause for replacing fixtures before their time.
