Getting ready to install a through wall skimmer in my Intex Ultra Frame Pool. Does it make any difference where I mount the skimmer? Other than the obvious problem of having to plug the two original suction openings on the 24’ side of the pool liner and cutting another opening in the liner for the new skimmer, could I mount the skimmer on 12’ side? The reason? The slab we poured several years ago is a 1” slope to allow for water running off from the patio and it happens to run the length of the pool from the 12’ side to the 12’ side. Placing the skimmer on the 12’ high side (lower water level) would mean I would not have to lower my water level to accommodate the new skimmer.
I’ve attached three images. Two Original suction ports (on the 24’ side) , the high water level side (12’ side) and the low water level side (proposed side to mount the skimmer)
Thanks
