Installation Notes
Before installation, shut off power to the underwater light circuit and ensure the light fixture is cool. Remove the face ring or retaining screws, extract the old lens and clean the housing shoulder and gasket groove. Verify the gasket is still serviceable (replace if flattened or cracked). Install the new SPX0540Z1 lens with a proper seat and torque the face ring or retention screws per manufacturer specifications. Restore power and observe for any leaks or fogging during initial operation.
Maintenance Tip
Inspect the lens annually as part of your pool light maintenance routine. Replace the lens immediately if you notice cracks, condensation behind the lens, hazing, or any impact damage. Maintaining a clear, undamaged lens ensures proper light output, visibility and safety during nighttime pool use.
