{"product_id":"sp1099-series-basket","title":"Hayward SP1099 Series Basket","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Hayward SPX1099B is the replacement basket for the SP1099 series front access spa skimmer. It is the genuine Hayward part, shaped to the skimmer it belongs in rather than a generic basket that has to be forced into place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSizing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe top opening is 4-1\/2 in. by 5-1\/8 in., the basket stands 3-1\/2 in. tall, and the body tapers to 1-3\/4 in. by 4-3\/16 in. at the bottom. Those numbers are what let it seat squarely in the throat and still lift straight out when it is full.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy it is worth changing early\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA skimmer basket takes the first hit from every leaf, bug and seed that crosses the water. Plastic goes brittle in sun and chemicals, and once a basket cracks or the rim breaks away, debris flows past it. From there it collects in the pump strainer, and anything small enough goes on to the impeller. Replacing a split basket is the cheapest maintenance on the pad.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hayward","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48628828012756,"sku":"HAY-251-2617","price":26.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_a0cb7c25-dde9-4cad-9830-5cbdb81bab1c.jpg?v=1788753388","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/sp1099-series-basket","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
