Replacing a Pool Light in metal structured pool?

[jonwb1]

Hi,

I have a 16x32 metal structure pool that was built for vinyl liners. I have to replace the pool light but I thought I'd check here before doing so.

As you can see, the light housing is firmly sealed to the liner using a stainless steel plate, screws and gasket. The light itself uses a common single screw design to hold it in place.

For anyone familiar with these, will the single screw allow the light to be removed underwater... similar to other pool designs?

I'm assuming the light housing behind the light is watertight, and they'll be enough AC cord to set the unit on the concrete?

We didn't install the pool so I'm wondering what to expect.

Thanks!

The single screw should release the light from the light niche.

Do you need to replace the bulb or the entire light fixture?

To my knowledge, just the bulb.
