*Appearance of color and white LED light may vary between various models of lights. Appearance and perception of pool lighting may vary depending on a number of factors including, but not limited to, the particular model of light, the location/depth/angle of the light’s installation, pool finish/material, pool depth/shape/geometry, ambient light sources, subjective factors and more. For best results when using multiple lights, use all the same model and do not mix multiple models of lights within a single installation.

Nicheless Pool Light FAQs

A nicheless pool light is a compact LED fixture designed to be installed directly into a standard 1.5-inch return fitting (the same kind of pipe used for water jets) rather than a large, recessed “niche” carved into the pool wall.

While the light itself fits into a 1.5-inch wall fitting, the pipe running behind the wall to the junction box is often transitioned down to a 1-inch (or 0.75-inch) conduit. There are two main reasons for this:

  • Safety & Code Compliance: The conduit acts as a protected, water-tight pathway for the electrical cord to travel from the “wet” pool environment to the “dry” junction box.
  • Cord Management: A 1-inch pipe is the ideal size to allow the power cord to slide through easily during installation or replacement, while still being small enough to manage easily in a standard electrical junction box.

A nicheless light is installed by screwing it into a standard 1.5-inch wall pipe that is already built into the pool. First, the electrical cord is pushed through the pipe until it reaches the junction box on the pool deck. Once the cord is pulled through, the light fixture is pushed into the wall fitting and turned clockwise to lock it in place. Most of these lights use a special plastic tool to help you tighten them without scratching the lens.

Yes, you can usually replace a Jandy nicheless light with a Blue Square light because they are both designed to fit into a standard 1.5-inch return fitting. Since both brands use low-voltage power, the Blue Square light will physically fit into the same hole in the wall. However, you must make sure the Blue Square light is compatible with your existing transformer’s voltage and that it will sync correctly with any other Jandy lights remaining in the pool.
