The optional float by pass valve, what is it and how much does it cost?

The optional float / by-pass valve provides a main-drain thru skimmer system plus an automatic safety by-pass for low water conditions. You may purchase the float valve assembly through this link http://www.inyopools.com/Products/07501352017468.htm

I have a skimmer needing to be replaced. The number on it is SP 1084 A5. Would the 10852 be the same one? It looks the same. I have an in ground vinyl liner pool.

Hi, The SP1084 A5 skimmer would be a standard model and the SP10852 would be a Wide mouth skimmer. It may look the same but different dimensional feature. You can view the difference in the Hayward Series-Auto-Skim-SP1084-1085 Manual.

I need to exchange the old skimmer Hayward SP 1084-A5. I need similar with the same dimensions of skimmer face. Your expert "Joe" recommend me to buy Hayward Wide Track Skimmer - SP10852. But I am not sure if the dimensions of the face are same. In your owner's manual on the page 5 are different dimensions than on the page 6 with the dimensions of SP 1085 Series. See enclosed files. Because of the cut out panel and holes for screws I need skimmer with exact same face dimensions as on page 5.
Hi Otaker, This Hayward SP10852 skimmer does measure the same as the dimensions you posted on page 5 of your manual. The inside dimensions of the opening measure 15 1/4" X 5 11/16" and the outside dimension of the face plate are 18 5/16" X 8 11/16"

I believe I have this skimmer, and the inside opening matches at 15 1/4" X 5 11/16". I need a new weir for it and can't find one that size! Would you be able to provide a part number for a replacement weir for this?

Hi, Tom. The Weir 7-3/4" - SPX1082K is the correct weir for this Hayward skimmer.

How can that be if the skimmer opening is 15-1/4”. The 7-3/4” would be too skinny!
Tom, The weir does not fit into the widest part of the skimmer. It's installed deeper into the skimmer. Check out the Auto-Skim-SP1084-1085 Series Manual.
