Hayward SP0607U – DuraNiche® Vinyl/Fiberglass Pool Light Fixture Housing
Product Overview
The Hayward SP0607U is a large-scale injection-molded PVC lighting niche designed specifically for vinyl or fiberglass wall pools. It provides a durable, corrosion-resistant housing that accommodates underwater light fixtures and simplifies installation with a pre-molded conduit outlet and mounting structure.
Key Features
- Injection-molded PVC construction for superior corrosion resistance and long life in pool chemical environments.
- 45° 1″ outlet that can be oriented to top or rear conduit entry, compatible with standard pipe fittings.
- Socket-type conduit connections for quick and reliable PVC bonding without reliance on metal threaded assemblies.
- Internally-threaded port to allow conduit pressure-testing before light fixture installation.
- Dedicated model for vinyl/fiberglass systems—fits standard punch-out wall panel designs—no tooling modifications required.
Technical Specifications
- Part Number: SP0607U
- Material: UV-stabilized glass-filled polypropylene or high-strength injection-molded PVC (depending on trim style)
- Application: Vinyl or fiberglass pool wall installation
- Overall Nominal Dimensions: Approximately 12¼″ x 8¼″ face (varies by wall thickness) with 1″ outlet port

Installation & Compatibility Notes
- Suitable for new installations or retrofit replacements in vinyl-lined metal wall or fiberglass panel wall pools.
- When installing, align the housing shell through the wall panel, secure with the provided screws and backup ring, and seal gaskets snugly to prevent water intrusion behind the wall.
- Use compatible underwater light fixture and cord set rated for the niche dimensions and conduit configuration.
- Ensure proper bonding and grounding per code—connect bonding conductor to provided lug before sealing the niche.
- After wall finishing and water fill, test the conduit for leak-free assembly prior to final light installation.
Troubleshooting Tips
- No conduit space: Confirm the outlet orientation (45°) is compatible with the pipe run; if access is limited, orient to rear entry or switch to an alternate niche model.
- Water behind panel after fill-up: Check gasket installation, screw torque, and ensure backing ring is properly seated against the panel.
- Corrosion spots near faceplate: Indicates use of metallic components—ensure the niche body and face trim are non-metallic per specification.
Maintenance Tip
Inspect the faceplate gaskets, mounting screws, and the interior of the niche annually during light service or pool shutdown periods. Replace damaged gaskets and retorque screws after initial fill to account for liner or panel settling.
