We don't winterize around here. I will check for the screw on top. It only pivoted out along the bottom. If it is holding well with water pressure, what does it really matter anyway?

Re: Pool light seated properly in niche?
i have gone a month without replacing mine and it's been fine..i guess my only concern is mine anyway could get knocked out by one of the kids and dangle..maybe potentially yank loose? i don't think it's super safe i guess
Re: Pool light seated properly in niche?
The pool light needs to be properly attached with the screw into the niche. This is a part of the bonding (safety) system for all lights. There should be a threaded hole near the top of the niche for the screw and a spot for the hook on the light to catch near the bottom. Water pressure DOES NOT hold them in. The screws are called "pilot" screws. If you don't have one, get it at a pool supply, not a hardware store. It must be stainless steel or brass.
