Hayward SP11054 Skim-Vac Plate with Combo Hose Adapter
Part Number: SP11054
Description
This skim-vac plate is designed to sit on top of a skimmer basket and allow vacuuming through the skimmer rather than the pump strainer. The included combo adapter fits both 1-1/4″ and 1-1/2″ vacuum hoses, making it versatile for above-ground and in-ground pool skimmers.
Compatibility & Fitment
- Fits Hayward models SP1090, SP1091 and SP1092 skimmers.
- Accepts vacuum hose sizes of 1-1/4″ or 1-1/2″ via the combo adapter.
- Ideal for pool owners who want to vacuum directly through the skimmer basket without turning off the pump.
Features & Specifications
- Heavy-duty UV-resistant construction for outdoor pool environments.
- Large debris basket cover area to facilitate vacuuming without removing the basket.
- Quick-disconnect pipe connection simplifies service and installation.
- Dropdown adapter for hose flexibility and universal fit on hose sizes listed.
Installation Notes
Turn off the pool pump or reduce flow. Remove the skimmer lid and basket. Place the SP11054 skim-vac plate evenly over the basket. Attach the vacuum hose via the combo adapter. Replace the skimmer lid and restore pump operation to begin vacuuming through the skimmer. After vacuuming is complete, remove plate and reinstall standard skimmer lid and basket.
Maintenance Tip
Inspect the plate and adapter annually for cracks or deformation from UV exposure, and clean the gasket area to ensure a good seal. If the plate fails to provide a tight fit or debris bypass occurs, replace with a new unit immediately to avoid vacuum loss or pump strain.
