It fits AquaStar skimmers and most standard skimmers, including Sta-Rite and Pentair.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy lids fail\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSkimmer lids sit flush in the deck and get walked on, dragged over and left in the sun for years. Sooner or later they go brittle and crack, usually right around the edge. The collar underneath takes the same abuse from below. Buying the two together means the whole opening is renewed rather than a new lid dropping into a broken frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGet the size right\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSkimmer lids come in several diameters that look almost identical until you set them side by side. Measure the opening before ordering.

It gives way under a foot, and the opening beneath it is a hole in the deck.
