Product details
The Pentair 85015200 is the equalizer assembly listed on the American Products Admiral in-ground skimmer. It is the genuine Pentair part.
What the equalizer is for
A skimmer has two suction ports. The main one is the skimmer mouth at the waterline, where surface debris comes in. The second, the equalizer, is plumbed to a fitting through the pool wall below the water line. If the level in the pool falls below the skimmer mouth, the equalizer keeps water flowing to the pump instead of letting it pull air and run dry.
Before you order
Skimmer bodies are not interchangeable between brands or across generations. Match this to the Admiral skimmer it is listed for, and check the existing assembly for cracks and hardened seals while the skimmer is open.
