So I have a pool light that the sealing ring on the niche has corroded away. I had a leak in the pool and the guy indicated I have a leak at the niche seal and recommended replacing the ring and gasket. I am wondering the best way to do this? I am a couple years out from a new liner.
I have a few questions
1) do I have to drain the pool to below the light location or can I do it with the pool filled? (I saw some threads where people recommended waiting till a new liner install to address but in my case I have a leak
2) there is some remaining gasket residue on the liner. What is the best way to remove this residue to get a good seal with the new gasket. I am wanting to clean it up without damaging the liner.
3) any specific instructions to making the new instal I should be aware of?
Attached are pictures. I have deduced that I need a pentair 79200200 10 hole standard liner sealing replacement And I have initial installation instructions. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
