Installation & Compatibility Notes
During new pool construction or renovation, position the niche at the correct depth in the wall so the face of the plaster ring will be flush with the finished surface. Secure the body to reinforcing rebar with tie-backs to ensure no movement. Install the wiring conduit through the 1″ hub and use the included reducer adapters as required. After plastering and curing, install the compatible pool light fixture into the niche following the manufacturer’s instructions. Perform bonding/grounding per code.
Maintenance Tips
- When servicing the light fixture, inspect the niche for cracks or seal failure and ensure the plaster ring remains flush with the surface.
- If the niche becomes displaced or fractured, replace it prior to installing the new light to prevent future leak or fixture failure.
- Keep the included bushings and adapter fittings in your parts inventory—these are common items needed to adapt to conduit size or light model changes.
