When the concrete has dried, remove the foam cover from the niche. Fill the recess around the niche
with a waterproof sealant (2 part epoxy). Keep the sealant flush with the niche front edge and
concrete wall surface.
8.
To install the light mounting ring into the niche:
a.
Apply PVC cement to the swivel surface of the mounting ring (item 75811) and also to the inside
of the niche where the mounting ring is likely to rest (approx. 20mm inside niche).
b. For easier installation and maintenance of the light, it is highly recommended that the mounting
ring be installed according to the following description. The mou
nting ring has a large “X” mark
that should be installed into the niche such that the marker is at the 12 o’clock position. Please
see the following image, which highlights the marker and its correct position. Press the mounting
ring into the niche, with t
he marker at 12 o’clock, until the ring sits flush against the pool concrete
wall. Check for correct installation before the glue sets.
9.
Press the second, smaller polystyrene foam cover (item 26939) into the mounting ring. This will
prevent dirt and debris entering the niche during rendering or tiling and will also help maintain
roundness under the weight of the tiles.
10.
Now apply the render or tiles, ensuring that the finished tile/render surface is level with the front edge
of the mounting ring.
ATTENTION:
Interior pool surface must finish flush with the raised edge of the mounting ring, or it
will not be possible to properly install the light.
ATTENTION:
Do not install the light until the pool has been washed with acid.
