A removable, reusable cover assembly for a light assembly has a light filtering cover with an interior that surrounds a lamp of the light assembly and a connector that attaches to the light assembly. The cover assembly has first and second vent holes that communicate with the interior of the cover. During energization of the lamp, the air in the interior of the cover is heated and escapes through the first vent hole. Cooling air is drawn through the second vent hole into the interior of the cover to cool the lamp.
