Pentair Bermuda Gunite Skimmer, 2" Slip Ports, Black ABS Body & Lid | 506365
The Pentair 506365 is a Bermuda-style skimmer designed for gunite (concrete) pool and spa installations. This model features 2" slip (socket) ports for PVC plumbing and is manufactured from durable ABS with a black skimmer body and lid. It is used to capture surface debris and improve circulation by drawing water from the pool surface into the skimmer basket and filtration system.
Key Features
- Gunite pool skimmer: intended for concrete/gunite pool and spa construction.
- 2" slip ports: socket-style connections for 2" PVC plumbing (glue-in).
- ABS construction: rugged skimmer body designed for long-term use in pool environments.
- Black body and lid: matches darker finishes and helps reduce visual contrast at the skimmer opening.
- One-piece body design with external ribbing: built for strength during installation and backfill (installation dependent).

Compatibility Notes
- Pool type matters: this is a gunite skimmer. Vinyl and fiberglass pools typically require different skimmer assemblies.
- Plumbing match: confirm your suction line and skimmer port size is 2" and uses slip connections.
- Model match: confirm your skimmer throat/face and lid style match your existing installation if you are replacing an older skimmer.
Installation Notes
- Skimmer installation should follow local code and standard pool construction practices.
- Dry-fit plumbing before cementing to confirm alignment and depth.
- Ensure the skimmer is set level and at the correct finished waterline height before gunite and deck work.
- Use appropriate PVC primer/cement and allow full cure before pressure testing.

Maintenance Tips
- Empty the skimmer basket regularly to maintain strong surface skimming and reduce pump strain.
- Keep the pool water level near the middle of the skimmer opening for best performance.
- If surface skimming is weak, check for a stuck/missing weir door, clogged basket, dirty filter, or partially closed valves.
- Inspect the lid and deck collar area periodically for cracks and replace worn lids to prevent debris entry and trip hazards.
