- Product Details
This 2-piece above-ground wide mouth skimmer is designed to be assembled together first and then installed as a single unit onto the pool wall. The system combines a standard skimmer body with a wide-mouth extension, creating a larger debris intake while preserving long-term serviceability.
The major advantage of this design appears over time—especially in colder climates. If winter freeze damage ever occurs, the standard skimmer body can be replaced without disturbing the pool liner, dramatically reducing the risk of liner damage compared to one-piece skimmers. This makes it a smarter, safer option for above-ground pools exposed to seasonal freeze-thaw cycles.
Once assembled, the wide-mouth opening improves surface skimming efficiency by capturing more leaves, insects, and floating debris before they sink.
