I'm going to install a Hayward Dura-Skim through wall skimmer into my AGP this weekend, and I can't decide whether to cut the liner first and use the butterfly gasket as per instructions, or cut the butterfly gasket and install that way, then cut the liner. Those who have installed this booger, what do you recommend? I'm torn and can't decide which approach to take!
Also, I've watched several videos and it always seems to be difficult to get the screws through the vinyl liner. Assuming you drain the pool to a safe level, would it be reasonable to drill the holes using the tiniest bit possible, with a battery operated drill? The vinyl isn't part of the threading process for the screws, after all. Just something to make it easier to get the screws in.
Thanks!
