Product details
The Hayward SP1082FV is the white float valve assembly for the Auto-Skim series skimmer, SP1080. It measures 7-7/8 by 6-5/8 inches and comes assembled.
What it protects
The float rides on the water in the skimmer throat. When the pool level drops far enough that the skimmer would start pulling air, the float falls and closes off the suction line. That forces the pump to draw from the main drain instead, which is what stops a dry pump and a cooked seal after a hot week or a leak.
Before you order
The description lists this as the Auto-Skim SP1080 part, and it is also cataloged with the Skim Master in-ground skimmers SP1070 and SP1071. Measure the old assembly against the 7-7/8 by 6-5/8 inch figures, and check the parts list for your skimmer model, since Hayward has used several float designs across its skimmer range.
