Customer-Facing Q&A
Q: Will this light fit in my existing pool wall fitting?
A: In many cases yes. This model is ultra-compact and designed to drop into standard 1.5″ pool wall fittings, making it ideal for retrofit applications—though you should always verify niche dimensions, wall thickness and wiring clearance.
Q: Why does it come with a 50′ cord?
A: The 50′ factory cord allows more flexibility in equipment pad or transformer placement—especially useful if the pad is distant from the pool wall or requires a longer reach.
Q: Can I use this for color light shows and automation?
A: Yes — it supports multi-color modes and is compatible with automation systems and color-sync controllers when wired properly.
Q: Is installation difficult?
A: For a qualified pool technician or electrician, the installation is straightforward: shut off power, mount in niche or fitting, route and terminate cord, check bonding/grounding and test operation. Always follow local electrical and pool-lighting code.
Q: Will replacing my older pool light with this improve performance?
A: Yes — using a modern LED unit improves energy efficiency, reduces maintenance/replace intervals, enhances aesthetics and allows richer lighting design compared to older halogen/fiber-optic fixtures.
