Product details
The Waterway 550-1220 is the replacement basket assembly for the Front Access Skim Filter. It arrives complete with its handle and with the raised center the filter needs.
Sizing
The basket measures 6-1/2 inches outside diameter across the top, 6 inches at the cut edge, and 3-1/4 inches tall. If you are matching an unlabeled basket, those three numbers are the check to make before ordering.
Supersedes the older basket
This part replaces the earlier Waterway 519-2900. If your skimmer came with a 519-2900, the 550-1220 is the current part to fit.
Why it is worth replacing
A cracked or split basket lets leaves and grit straight through to the pump, where they load the strainer basket and eventually reach the impeller. A basket is the cheapest filter in the system and the easiest to keep in good shape.
