1. 1.5" pipe must be installed through the bond beam with a minimum length of fourteen (14 inches,
followed by a one (1) inch conduit with sweeps. DO NOT use 90 degree elbows. It is highly
recommended to use 1.5" pipe through out the entire width of the bond beam. (see Figure 2).
2. Snake the 2-Conductor electrical cord through the conduit outlet of the wall fitting, into the
conduit and up to the location of the 12VAC pool transformer. Cut off the cord, after allowing
for service and length of run to the transformer. A length of cord with 18" - 24" of excess
cord is recommended for the service loop. Pull the fixture snug to the wall fitting.
NOTE:
THESE STEPS ARE TO BE PERFORMED ONLY AFTER ALL ELECTRICAL
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS ARE MET.
NOTE:
When using a 1 1/2" MIP fitting on the back of a SP-1022 or SP-1048 wall fitting,
the interior dimension of the Spears or Dura brands of MIP are both too small for proper
installation of the Halco ProLED

NICHELESS LED LIGHT
Use the chart below to determine the appropriate minimum required pipe length for your
installation. It is recommended to use 1.5" pipe so that lights can easily be upgraded to a higher
wattage model in the future.
All products listed above are available in 50, 100 and 150 feet cord lengths.

PREPARING THE LIGHT FIXTURE FOR INSTALLATION
NOTE:
A licensed electrician must complete the below preparatory steps prior to the
light fixture being installed (see figure 1).
1. The junction box or the low-voltage transformer must be located at least eight (8) inches (measured from
the inside of the bottom of the junction box or transformer) above the MAXIMUM water level, OR at least
four (4) inches above the ground level or pool deck, whichever is greater. The junction box or transformer
must also be installed at least forty-eight (48) inches (4 ft..) from the edge of the pool. (see figure 1).
2. A standard 1.5" plastic wall / return fitting (not included) must be installed so that the top edge of the
Halco ProLED
®
Nicheless LED Lights lens is at least four (4) inches (10.2 cm) below the surface of the
pool water.
NOTE:
Always verify the pool’s electrical system meets all local city and state applicable requirements.
Verify the pool meets the requirements of the current National Electrical Code (NEC) / Canadian
Electrical Code (CEC) in Canada), and all local codes and ordinances. A licensed or certified electrician
must install the electrical system to meet or exceed those requirements prior to installing the
