I need to replace my skimmer. Unluckily it is no longer available, so I was hoping another skimmer may fit the same dimintions. I have an American Products Co. P/N-850006 skimmer. Prevous owner has patched it several times and it is leaking from all of them. Is there another skimmer that I can plug into this space?
Hello Mister Roberts,
Based on the number you provided, I was able to determine that you have an Admiral Skimmer which is manufactured by Pentair. It comes in the S15 and S20 models. Here is a link to the product page for the Pentair S15 & S20. On this page, you can reference the dimensions of the face of the skimmers. I was unable to determine which version you would need based on the part number you provided. This gives us a jumping off point on replacing your skimmer. If you need additional assistance, I would recommend taking some dimensions of the opening and the port sizes of your skimmer. This will help us try to assist you better or your can contact Pentair directly at 1-800-831-7133.
Here is a link to the Admiral Skimmer S20 Dual Ports 2 Threaded (DS) - 844208 if you were looking for pricing information. You can click on the link to view the product page. I look forward to hearing back from you with additional information. Thanks for the question!
