1
Aqua-Star Housing
should be tied to the steel reinforcing,
before concreting the pool. A
red
Concrete Cap
is supplied
to fit inside the front of the Housing prior to concreting.
2
The
Housing
has two conduit connection points to
accept rigid PVC conduit, do not use flexible conduit.
Choose the appropriate provision for the situation and run
conduit above water level to form an anti-siphon loop. Top
provision accepts 20mm conduit or 25mm conduit fitting.
Rear provision accepts 20mm coupling. If using the
Rear
Provision
, be sure to plug the
Top Provision
using a 25mm
conduit cap.
3
Use tie wire or cable ties through the holes on the outer
perimeter of the
Housing
to securely fasten it to the steel
reinforcing bars. Position the
Housing
so that the front will
finish level with the concrete.
4
It is very important to locate
Housing
at a suitable location
and depth to allow for future servicing of the pool light.
Excavate sufficiently around the rear of the
Housing
to allow
approximately 100mm of concrete to encase it. If pool is out
of ground and fully formed, ensure the formwork allows for
concrete to encase the
Housing
.
5
During pouring/spraying, concrete should be undercut
around the front perimeter of the
Housing
to allow for a
construction adhesive to be applied prior to the application
of the internal pool surface.
6
Concrete should be applied to reduce the likelihood of
a void occurring on the underside of the
Housing
. Once
concrete has cured, construction adhesive must be applied
around the
Housing
to seal it to the concrete.

Aqua-Star Halogen Lights must only be operated underwater as they are water-cooled.
Install in an accessible location, ensure that sufficient cable is wound up inside the housing to allow the light to be
floated to the deck level. If being installed facing up, ensure that there is minimum 100mm of water cover and change
globe to max 30 watts.
Aqua-Star Halogen Pool Lights can be installed on a vertical or horizontal pool surface. Up to 1.6m of cable can be
wound up inside the Concrete Housing.
