Thank you for the reply. As far as the mount of money I paid for the cool stuff. I actually paid for a professional install and expected just that. From the statt to the finish. It is definitely unfortunate.
To follow up on this post with another question. There is water within this conduit. Is that normal. Since the light has been removed, will the pool leak?

Water in the conduit might, or might not, indicate broken or punctured conduit. However it DOES indicate the need to EITHER plug the conduit or leak test it before covering everything back up.

Unfortunately, there are no acknowledged, much less accepted, "professional standards" in the pool industry. The nation-wide practice seems to be, "if we can get it past inspection, and if it will last the 1-year warranty . . . that's professional enough!"

But this is a somewhat self-inflicted injury on the part of pool buyers, who rather consistently prefer contractors who PROMISE the moon for LE$$, and will give them the job, rather than more rough-n-ready contractors who promise less, charge more, but who can actually DELIVER what the promise. Probably 30% of $80,000+ pools built in my area (NW Ga, SE Tn) in the last year, were built by contractors with histories of repeated bankruptcies, and near criminal actions.

One might think that people who can afford a $100,000 pool would be more likely to do 'due diligence' on their contractors. One would be wrong, though!
