Ensure maximum safety and superior water surface cleaning with the CMP 25140-510-000N Pool Defender Dual Port Skimmer. This white, professional-grade skimmer is specifically designed for in-ground gunite (concrete) swimming pools and features an innovative, integrated water bonding system. The built-in water bond lug allows for a direct connection to the pool’s equipotential bonding grid, ensuring compliance with NEC 680.26(C) electrical safety codes and protecting expensive metal pool components from galvanic corrosion.
The skimmer is constructed from rugged, UV-resistant ABS plastic, ensuring it withstands harsh chemical and environmental conditions. Its dual-port configuration features versatile plumbing connections: a 2-inch inner diameter (socket) for the main line and a 2.5-inch outer diameter (spigot) for easy PVC pipe integration. The design includes a large-capacity debris basket, a floating weir flap for effective surface tension and debris capture, and a 5.75-inch throat depth.
