Pool Light - Cover Removal - Can you identify this pool light? - Page 2

Geoff, your guidance was super helpful and it assisted Jim in finding my customers fitting! 

I will let you all know how I get on when I am next in the pool!

Thank you, everyone, for the guidance provided, which resulted in a solution yesterday!

I finally managed to get the cover ring off! It was an anti-clockwise turn, about 5 minutes on a clock face! I am guessing that 12 years in the pool without removal was what made it ridiculously difficult to remove. If anyone else has a similar issue, I would suggest making a handle type contraption which will fit into the three-hole arrangement at the top and bottom of the cover.

The next issue we discovered was that the pool light installer had only left 4-5" of cable on the fitting! So no chance of lifting the fitting out to replace the lamp! The solution was to drop the pool level by around 8" in order to get the lens off safely without water ingress.

Once that was achieved, the lens removed, I could take the lamp out and then a couple of replacements were sourced. I was rather surprised to discover the lamps are 100W!

The process was reversed for putting the fitting back, however I noticed small air bubbles coming from the top of the fitting, at a regular enough rate to bother me, so a further nip up on the cover ring solved that issue.

Overall, I am not impressed with pool lights. Speaking with a specialist and a pool regular, he has advised me never to fit them if I have the choice!!!

Thank you all once again.
