AquaStar SKR201 Standard Skimmer | Flow Star Inground Pool

The AquaStar SKR201 Flow Star Standard Skimmer is a versatile skimming system for residential and commercial pools, delivering reliable performance from 15 GPM to 90 GPM. Built for durability, it combines a super strong engineered polymer upper housing with an extra heavy-duty PVC lower unit that requires no transitional glue, providing long-term structural strength. The package includes an adjustable collar, flush face, float assembly, basket, and lid for complete functionality. A new weir clip lock secures the clips in the weir door, and underwater dampers on the faceplate minimize noise from the weir plate, particularly on windy days. Its large self-contained basket locks into place to prevent floating, while built-in overflow or fill line knockouts add convenience. For easier construction integration, the upper housing offers pre-cut rebar cutouts and pre-drilled tie wire holes, and 2½ inch outside slip, 2 inch inside slip, and 2 inch threaded connections enable flexible installation and pressure testing.
