Without the plate the suction splits between the hose and the open skimmer throat, and the vacuum head barely holds to the floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote the design change\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWaterway revised this part and it now ships as a snap in style plate.
