I have a Hayward SP1070B skimmer. Everywhere I look I see the float valve for it is SP1070-FV. But the float valve diameter is too small. It just sits on the bottom and doesn't leave enough room for bottom drain suction.
I see a channel for an O ring in the bottom of the skimmer that's a larger diameter than the float valve and would leave enough room for bottom drain suction. I think I'm either missing an adapter piece or I have the wrong float valve. But I have no idea what this adapter piece would be called and can't find anything, nor can I find a float valve that is a large enough diameter. I keep getting directed to the float valve that is too small diameter.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
