Cleaning schedule

Biofouling — not hardware failure — is the number one cause of reduced output. In our waters, a 90-day interval keeps fixtures at full brightness. Docks in warm, slow-moving canals may want 60 days through the summer.

1. 1Switch the circuit off at the breaker before reaching into the water.
2. 2Wipe the lens with a soft brush or non-abrasive pad — no solvents, no scouring pads.
3. 3Clear growth from the mounting bracket so the fixture keeps its aim.
4. 4Check the cable for chafe where it passes through conduit or over the seawall cap.
5. 5Restore power and confirm every fixture lights before you leave the dock.

Troubleshooting

• One fixture is noticeably dimmer than the others+
• A fixture flickers+
• The halo looks smaller than it used to+
• Fish activity dropped off+
• The GFCI trips at night only+

Hurricane season checklist

• □Photograph each fixture and the transformer before the storm for insurance records
• □Switch the lighting circuit off at the breaker 24 hours ahead of landfall
• □Confirm transformer and controller enclosures are latched and above expected surge
• □Remove loose dock accessories that could strike fixtures in surge
• □Leave fixtures mounted — they are engineered to stay submerged through storm conditions
• □After the storm, inspect cable runs for abrasion before restoring power
• □Restore power only after the GFCI tests clean; call us if it trips
