4. Setup and Installation
4.1. Before You Begin
- Ensure your pool has a suitable punch-out or opening with a diameter between 59 mm and 65 mm for the inlet nozzle.
- Turn off and disconnect all power to your pool's filtration system and any other electrical components.
- Drain the pool water below the level of the inlet nozzle opening.
- Gather necessary tools (e.g., wrenches, sealant if required).
4.2. Installation Steps
- Prepare the Opening: Ensure the existing inlet nozzle opening in your pool wall is clean and free of debris. The opening must be between 59 mm and 65 mm in diameter.
- Apply Sealant (Optional): If desired, apply a thin bead of pool-safe silicone sealant around the edge of the opening on the pool wall for extra sealing.
- Insert the Nozzle: From inside the pool, insert the Steinbach Jet Light 060065 LED inlet nozzle through the prepared opening. Ensure the sealing gasket is correctly positioned between the nozzle flange and the pool wall.
- Secure the Nozzle: From the outside of the pool, attach the retaining nut onto the threaded part of the nozzle. Hand-tighten first, then use a wrench to firmly secure it, ensuring a watertight seal. Do not overtighten.
- Connect Power Cable: Route the power cable from the nozzle to the location of the 12V power adapter. Ensure the cable is not pinched or damaged during routing.
- Connect to Power Adapter: Plug the nozzle's power cable into the 12V power adapter.
- Connect Power Adapter to Mains: Plug the 12V power adapter into a grounded 230V AC electrical outlet. Ensure the outlet is protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) for safety.
- Test for Leaks: Refill the pool to the normal operating level. Carefully inspect around the inlet nozzle for any signs of leaks. If leaks are detected, drain the pool slightly and re-tighten the retaining nut.
5. Operation
Once installed and connected to power, the Steinbach Jet Light 060065 is ready for use. The light is controlled by the power supply it is connected to. Typically, this will be a switch on the power outlet or a dedicated switch for your pool lighting circuit.
- Turning On: Activate the power switch connected to the 12V power adapter. The LED light will illuminate.
- Turning Off: Deactivate the power switch connected to the 12V power adapter. The LED light will turn off.
- Adjusting Inlet Cone: The central inlet cone can be adjusted to direct water flow as needed.
6. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Steinbach Jet Light.
- Cleaning: Periodically clean the visible part of the LED inlet nozzle to remove any algae, mineral deposits, or debris that may accumulate. Use a soft cloth and mild, pool-safe cleaning solution. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect the power cable for any signs of damage, fraying, or cracks. Check the sealing around the nozzle for any leaks. Address any issues promptly.
- Winterization: If you winterize your pool, ensure the light is properly drained and protected from freezing temperatures. It is recommended to remove the power adapter and store it in a dry, protected area during the off-season.
