Skimmer Socks — Ultra-Fine Reinforced Nylon Filters Why you need this Keeps pool water cleaner between filter cycles by capturing fine debris that can pass through standard skimmer baskets. Reduces pump and filter clogging, prolonging the life and performance of your pool equipment. Saves time and money on filter replacements and deep cleaning by trapping dirt, leaves, and sediment at the skimmer. Key benefits Precise fine filtration: Traps dirt, leaves and sediments before they reach your main filter, improving overall water quality and reducing maintenance frequency. Durable, reusable material: Made from ultra-fine reinforced nylon with excellent elasticity and stretchability for reliable, long-term use. Wide compatibility: Designed to fit various skimmer models and filter baskets, including common skimmer baskets, for flexible application across many pool systems. Environmentally friendly and cost effective: Easy to clean and reusable many times, cutting disposable waste and routine replacement costs. Features and attributes Material: Ultra-fine reinforced nylon — strong, elastic, and stretchable for a secure fit over skimmer baskets.

Performance: Improves skimmer efficiency and helps maintain clearer water by intercepting sediments and organic debris. Compatibility: Fits most common skimmer baskets and a wide range of skimmer models for straightforward installation and replacement. Typical use scenarios Seasonal leaf cleanup: Place a skimmer sock in the basket during autumn or after storms to catch leaves and prevent frequent clogging of the main filter. Routine pool maintenance: Use during weekly skimming to collect fine grit and sediment before it circulates through the filtration system. Startup and shutdown periods: Install when opening or closing the pool to capture accumulated debris and protect pumps and cartridge filters during increased cleaning cycles. Care and maintenance Easy to clean: Rinse or shake out captured debris; machine wash or hand wash as needed to restore performance.
