Q:I need to replace my pool light but I don't know which model I have. How do I choose the right one?
A:The pool light housing should have an identification label on the side of the fixture. You will have to remove the light from the pool in order to access it. Please use extreme caution and make sure that you shut the power to the breaker off PRIOR to removing the light. If you need help on how to remove the light, you can look HERE.

Q:After doing a lot of reasearch, I was wondering what the difference between the Jandy and Fiberstars laminar jets is besides the cost.
A:There is not much difference between these two units. The main difference is that the Fiberstars deck box is a little shorter and the ports come through the side of the deck box instead of the bottom of the deck.
