The weir is the moving flap in the throat: water passes over it on the way in, and when the pump stops the flap closes and keeps the collected debris in the basket rather than letting it drift back into the pool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlumbing and construction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis configuration takes 2 inch slip connections, so the suction line is solvent welded directly to the skimmer with no threaded joint to seal. The equalizer port is included. The PVC base is the version specified for concrete pools; Pentair lists separate Admiral configurations for vinyl liner construction and for threaded ports.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWithin the Admiral range\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe S20 is the larger throat model.
