Leaves, insects, pollen, and the oily film left behind by sunscreen and lotions all float. A skimmer draws water off that top layer and pulls the debris out before it becomes waterlogged and sinks to the floor, where it is much harder to remove and starts consuming sanitizer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy it is worth keeping in good order\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA skimmer is the first stage of filtration. Everything it traps is material that never gets as far as the pump basket, the impeller or the filter element. A cracked skimmer body, a missing weir or a housing that no longer seals lets that job fall to the parts downstream, which are more expensive to replace.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBefore you order\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCheck the plumbing size on your existing lines and confirm you need the spa version rather than a pool wall skimmer, since the two are not interchangeable.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Waterway","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48634283950292,"sku":"WWP-25-1517","price":55.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_5295f62c-3951-4cfd-a970-142c6956b4d4.jpg?v=1788828116","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/spa-skimmer-1-1-2-2-white","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
