Where do you put LED lights in a pool?

Make sure to use strip lights that have a rating of IP67 or higher for installation in a wet environment. For higher protection or full submersion, use IP68-rated strips. Since these lights will have contact with water, it is important to use low-voltage strip lights (12V-24V) to reduce the risk of danger if a problem with the strips or power suppliers were to happen. Some jurisdictions require above-ground pool lighting to meet National Electrical Code (NEC) Article 680 standards, which would limit possible pool lighting installation locations. Before you purchase pool lights, check your local code requirements.

Take caution when handling and installing electrical components near water. It is imperative to turn off all power supplies during the installation, use watertight wire connectors, and make sure there are no exposed wires. If you are not comfortable completing your pool light installation, have a certified electrician install your lights. 

Additionally, exposure to harsh chemicals such as chlorine and salt water may cause the housing of your strip lights to deteriorate over time. To extend the lifetime of your lights, we recommend installing the strip lights a few inches above the waterline to decrease contact with water. It is important to regularly check your lights to make sure they are working properly and do not have any exposed components.

To take the current pool light off the wall, remove the screw at the top of the light. Depending on the model, it may have three locating screws around the light. In some pools, the light is much lower in the water and will require you to actually get into the pool.

Tip: Do not forget goggles if you do have to get in the pool and go underwater so that you can see the screw.
