When to Replace Your Pool Light Lens
The glass lens is an important component of an underwater pool light assembly. Replacement may be necessary when the original lens shows signs of damage or deterioration.
- Cracked or chipped glass
- Cloudy or etched lens surfaces
- Reduced light transmission caused by lens deterioration
- Physical damage around the lens sealing edge
- Damaged glass discovered during light maintenance
Replacing the Lens and Gasket Together
When replacing an underwater pool light lens, Pentair recommends inspecting the complete sealing assembly. A damaged, compressed, or deteriorated lens gasket can allow water to enter the light fixture, potentially damaging internal electrical components.
For compatible Amerlite lights, the Pentair 79101600Z 8-3/8" Lens Gasket is the corresponding replacement sealing component.
Always use a new manufacturer-approved lens gasket when required by the light manufacturer's service procedure. Inspect the face ring and tension clamp for corrosion, damage, or deformation before reassembling the fixture.
Installation and Replacement Information
- Disconnect power to the underwater light at the electrical breaker and verify the circuit is de-energized.
- Follow Pentair's instructions for safely removing the light fixture from its niche.
- Inspect the existing lens, gasket, face ring, and retaining hardware.
- Remove the damaged lens and old gasket according to the manufacturer's procedure.
- Clean the appropriate sealing surfaces and inspect for damage.
- Install the Pentair 79100100Z replacement lens with the correct new gasket.
- Reassemble the light using the appropriate retaining hardware and manufacturer's tightening procedure.
- Complete the manufacturer's required watertightness inspection before returning the fixture to service.
- Have a qualified electrician verify safe operation before energizing the light.
Electrical Safety: Underwater pool lighting equipment presents serious electrical hazards. Installation and servicing should be performed by a qualified pool lighting professional or licensed electrician in accordance with Pentair instructions and applicable electrical codes.
