The Pentair 78232500 is a large stainless steel pool light niche designed for vinyl-liner and fiberglass pool installations.

  • Connection: 1" rear hub
  • Housing: Stainless steel
  • Bonding/Grounding: Internal and external bonding/grounding lugs

What This Niche Does

  • Provides the in-wall housing for a compatible large pool light fixture.
  • Supports secure mounting using a standard 10-hole face ring pattern.
  • Routes conduit to the rear hub connection while keeping the light assembly protected in the wall.
  • Includes bonding/grounding attachment points to help meet electrical safety requirements.

Compatibility Notes

  • Designed for vinyl-liner and fiberglass pool walls.
  • Uses a 1" rear hub conduit connection.
  • Uses a standard 10-hole pattern face ring style (match your existing ring/pattern if replacing an older niche).

When to Replace

  • Corrosion, pitting, or structural damage to the niche body
  • Cracked hub/conduit connection or damaged bonding/grounding lugs
  • Leaking at the wall penetration due to damaged niche body or sealing surfaces
  • Major renovation where the light niche is being updated or relocated

Installation Notes

  • Install during new construction or wall renovation before liner/finish work is completed.
  • Confirm conduit size and routing to the junction box before setting the niche in place.
  • Follow all applicable electrical and bonding requirements; pool lighting is a code-regulated installation.
  • Use the correct sealing ring/gasket components for vinyl-liner installations to prevent leaks.

Maintenance Tip

If you are replacing a light fixture, inspect the niche sealing surfaces and the face ring/gasket area before reassembly. Keeping the gasket surfaces clean and properly seated helps prevent leaks and reduces corrosion around the light opening.
