This wide mouth skimmer is particularly suited for steel and polymer vinyl wall applications and fiberglass pools. Key features include a secure weir clip lock, a large self-contained basket with a lock-in feature to prevent floating, and pre-installed O-ring for the float assembly. Noise reduction is achieved through underwater dampers on the faceplate, especially beneficial on windy days. The skimmer's durable construction is highlighted by its super strong engineered polymer upper housing and extra heavy-duty PVC lower unit, ensuring long-lasting performance without the need for transitional glue. Additionally, the skimmer offers various connection options, built-in overflow or fill line knock-out, and UV-tested lid and collar for enhanced durability. Optional custom name or logo engraving on the lid is available for orders of 500 or more, adding a personalized touch.
