5 Signs Your Pool Light Needs Replacing

our pool light doesn’t just make swimming at night more fun — it also keeps you safe. When it starts to fail, it’s a warning you shouldn’t ignore. Here are the top signs it’s time to get your pool light replaced in Texas.

1. It’s Flickering or Dim

If your light is flickering or dimmer than usual, it could mean water is leaking into the fixture, or the bulb is near burnout.

2. It Doesn’t Turn On

Sometimes it’s just a bad switch, but often it’s a burned-out bulb or damaged socket — both signs it's time for professional replacement.

3. Water Inside the Fixture

Any water inside the light fixture is dangerous. It can cause short-circuits and permanently damage the system.

4. Discoloration or Cloudiness

A yellow, cloudy, or darkened lens means the fixture has aged or overheated — reducing visibility and efficiency.

5. It Trips the Breaker

If your GFCI breaker trips when the light is turned on, it’s likely an electrical fault in the light wiring or housing — and needs urgent replacement.
