  1. I agree with keeping the pool light due to "the possibility of selling the house". New home owners look for things like the light in a pool and if they don't see one, then they could possibly think "Was there electrical problems?". There are many alternatives today to pool lights. I have a customer that has a 40,000+ gallon pool that actually uses three spa lights in the pool (I don't even know what the builder was thinking at the time). There are several LED lights that can be used in place of the regular 500 watt halogen bulb. The LED lights use around 45 watts of electricity and can light the entire pool, depending on size, with LOTS of colors and programs. They are programmable so you can choose any color that is an option. And you are correct, pool lights are expensive to replace. BUT CONSIDER THE SAFETY FACTORS for not just you, but for all of your guests. Pool lights are, by law, required to light the bottom of the pool. If the builder did not follow the state code, then the builder needs to fix it. In your case, is the builder even still around? (TIP for new construction)
