There should be a part number stamped on the skimmer lid.

Yes, the skimmer basket sits on top of the spaceship. Due to the lack of suction, there's actually a rock in the bottom of the basket to get it to stay in place. It's an ordinary basket, so the picture must distort it a bit.Spence,
Yes the pool equipment.. I want to see how many pipes tie together and come into your pump.
Basically I'm trying to understand what the spaceship is there for..
Does your skimmer basket sit on top of the spaceship? Maybe it is just the pic, but it looks like your skimmer basket is only three inches deep???
I'd think about running some thin rope through the top of the spaceship and bringing the rope above the skimmer lid so you could use a 2x4 or metal bar to get some leverage..

Maybe it's the wrong one or maybe someone glued it down for some reason?
Yes, I'm worried about breaking it. I've called in the issue to the home warranty hoping that if the tech they send out breaks it, it will continue to be covered in the warranty.It does say Pac Fab and there is a spot that says Model Number, but I can't see a model number in the box.
In any case, I think that it's a Bermuda skimmer unless the parts are not the original parts.
Maybe the gasket partly dissolved and melted to the plastic.
I suspect you if you pull hard enough, it will come loose, but it might also break the skimmer.
sounds like I should add water to the pool and see if that helps? am I reading this wrong?

Was it difficult to remove or did it just lift up?The tech who came simply removed the float valve.
