Which kit do I need?
-Our kits are designed for either above-ground or in-ground pools. Please check skimmer part number for fit.
-For above ground pools:
-If your skimmer opening looks relatively square, you probably have a standard skimmer: SWO / SW+ / SWXL
-If you have a rectangular skimmer opening, you probably have a wide mouth skimmer: WMO or WM+
-If you have an vacuum port directly under your skimmer opening or know that you have a Doughboy pool: DB
-For the return fitting, most pools (other than Doughboy) have the same size part: RTO / RT+/ RTXL
Can I attach the panel with construction adhesive or duct tape?
-We don't recommend that because your skimmer and hoses are heavy when filled with water. Additionally, the pump motor causes the hoses and skimmer to vibrate, putting additional stress on the assembly.
How long will it take to assemble the kit to my pool?
-This depends on your skills, but plan on 2-3 hours. Use appropriate safety equipment including gloves and safety glasses when working with metal and power tools.
Can I assemble the panel to the outside of my pool wall instead of the inside wall?
-Yes; however, assembling to the inside wall gives you a cleaner edge that is less likely to cut into your liner. If assembling to the outside of your wall, tape over cut edges to prevent a sharp edge from cutting into your liner.
Do you make repair kits for the entire wall, (48 or 52") top to bottom?
-We do not. Try: swimmingpool-discounters.com
How long will the pool last after a repair?
-The panels and hardware are made from stainless steel, which is has a high chromium content to prevent rust. Because caulk and gaskets wear out, you will likely need to reassemble the gaskets and skimmer and re-apply caulk at some point in the future.
How long will it take to get my order?
-Shipping time is not guaranteed and cost is non-refundable. We ship UPS Ground.
- Within the US, transit time is about 2 - 5 business days after the date of your order, depending on your distance from Chicago. - We ship to Canada via UPS. Transit time may be longer due to customs clearance. Any tariffs (excise taxes and broker fees) are the responsibility of the buyer.
I bought a kit, but I found that my pool is beyond repair, can I return the parts that I bought?
-Yes, as long as it is in new condition, please see our terms and conditions.
Will the kit work with a beaded or overlap liner?
-Yes, it will work with either one.
