In another thread, I asked about the two port skimmer, and got the following answer:
What is its purpose? Is there a way to set it to pull from the bottom and not the skimmer?
My digital camera croaked 2 weekends ago, or I'd post a picture of my skimmer. New one has been ordered and supposedly shipped...
So, I figured out the maufacturer and model. The exploded diagram is attached. Part 16 is called the "Diverter Plate." I don't have one. To me, it just looks like a cover for the line leading to the bottom of the pool.Richard, and Jim, if there are 2 open ports in the bottom of the skimmer and the basket doesn't perform the flow selection function, figure out who made the skimmer and order the proper 'flow selector' from them (for most Hayward skimmers, the part # is SP1082VG).
