It is a two port skimmer with a square lid, and it ships with a lock-down vacuum plate and an extension collar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuilt for liner pools\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Renegade is made for vinyl liner installations and works with existing steel, polymer and fiberglass pool walls. Waterway rates it at 75 GPM, and the plumbing is sized generously to get there: the 2 in. socket takes a 2-1\/2 in. spigot for more flow, the 1-1\/2 in. socket takes a 2 in. spigot to make the plumbing easier, and there is a 1\/2 in. socket for an overflow hose. All of them are PVC sockets, which glue up cleanly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBasket and weir\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe basket is one of the largest offered on a skimmer and it twist locks into place, so it will not float up when the pump shuts off and it still lifts straight out for emptying. The weir door is spring loaded, which is what makes it quick to fit and quick to swap when it eventually wears.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOptions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA float valve and a skimmer test kit are available separately if the installation calls for them.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Waterway","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48625747099860,"sku":"WWP-25-1686","price":162.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_49f4017b-2c7e-496d-a456-3601c3d112d1.jpg?v=1788691332","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/complete-vinyl-skimmer-wide-mouth-9-throat-white","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
