That is how spas and many above ground walls are built, and it keeps the basket and weir reachable where there is no deck to cut into.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlumbing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHaving one socket port and one FIP port means the kit takes glued pipe on one side and threaded fittings on the other, which covers most of what an installer runs into on a retrofit. Our internal records carry a second, conflicting size reading of 1-1\/2 to 2 inch for this item, so measure your existing ports and confirm before cutting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBefore you order\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSkimmer bodies are not a standard size across makers.
