Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What basket size do these fit?
A: Regular Skimmer Socks fit baskets up to 150mm diameter. For baskets over 150mm, see the Mega Skimmer Socks. Measure the internal diameter of your skimmer basket opening before ordering.
Q: How many socks are included?
A: 4 x 5 packs, giving you 20 socks in total.
Q: Are these reusable?
A: Yes, remove the sock, shake out debris, rinse with a hose, and allow to dry before reuse. Replace when the sock shows signs of tearing or stretching.
Q: How often should I check the skimmer sock?
A: Check every 1-3 days during heavy leaf fall or high-use periods. A heavily loaded sock will restrict pump flow, so rinse promptly.
Q: Will skimmer socks reduce how often I need to backwash?
A: Yes, in many cases. By catching fine debris before it reaches your main filter, skimmer socks reduce the load on your filter media.
Q: Do I need to turn off my pump to change the sock?
A: It is best practice to turn off your pump before removing or replacing the skimmer sock to avoid air entering the system.
