Hey,
One of my skimmer weirs has been an issue for a few years, it keeps falling out. I tried to replace it, but even though the replacement looks the same as what came out, it doesn't look like it will go in properly. I can't get a good picture, it's an old Anthony and Sylvan pool, if that helps.
It seems like in the skimmer where I would expect two holes the size of the end of the axle part of the weir, on one side there's sort of a hole, but it seems too small (maybe got some plaster in it from the new plaster and lazy workers if the weird had come out?) and the other side has a small piece sticking out into the skimmer weird space, instead of a hole.
Is there a different kind of weir that I need? I think what I bought was 8 inches, and it seems like about the right size, but I'm not 100% on that part even. I thought this would be simpler than it has turned out to be (story of pools I suppose).
I can try to get my underwater camera and get a picture if that would help.
Also, which way should weirs face? It seems obvious but I'm not 100% sure.
Thanks.
