Applications & Compatibility
This vacuum plate is designed for above-ground pool skimmers. When you need to vacuum the pool and want to use the skimmer basket rather than removing the pump basket, the SP1094D makes the process simpler and cleaner. Ensure your skimmer is one of the compatible models and that you have space for a 5¼″ diameter plate.
Installation Instructions
- Turn off the pool pump and relieve suction before servicing.
- Remove the skimmer basket and insert the SP1094D plate over the basket seat.
- Attach the vacuum hose (1¼″ or 1½″) to the elbow on the plate until fully seated.
- Replace basket cover or lid, restore circulation, and begin vacuuming via the skimmer.
Troubleshooting
- Vacuum hose does not fit: Verify hose size—1¼″ or 1½″—and make sure the elbow on the plate is correctly sized.
- Plate does not seat correctly: Ensure the skimmer basket seat is clean and free of debris so the plate fits flat.
- Low vacuum suction: Check that the skimmer basket is clear, the plate is seated properly, and the hose connection is secure.
Maintenance Tip
Rinse the plate periodically to remove debris and inspect the elbow connection for wear. Replacing the SP1094D when the elbow or plate surface is damaged ensures better vacuum performance and easier maintenance of your above-ground pool.
