Applications & Compatibility
This replacement weir assembly is ideal for restoring proper surface cleaning when the original weir becomes cracked, warped, waterlogged, or missing. Correct weir function improves pump efficiency and prevents debris from escaping back into the pool. Always verify your skimmer model to ensure compatibility.
Installation Instructions
- Turn off the pump and ensure water flow is stopped before servicing.
- Remove the old or damaged weir door from the skimmer opening.
- Clean the hinge area of any debris or buildup.
- Insert the new 08650-0022 weir door into the hinge slots and ensure it moves freely.
- Restore circulation and confirm the door floats and swings properly at the waterline.
Troubleshooting
- Weir sticks open or closed: Check hinge alignment and remove any debris preventing smooth movement.
- Poor skimming performance: Ensure the weir swings freely, verify correct water level, and inspect the skimmer basket for blockages.
Maintenance Tip
Inspect the weir door during routine pool maintenance. Replace it immediately if it becomes waterlogged, cracked, or fails to swing properly to keep your filtration system working efficiently.
