Weir door foam

[kyle11]

Sometime in the past few months the foam in my weir door must have come off. The door now stays completely open even with the pump off. It is a waterway renegade Skimmer. Would any foam work or is it better to just replace the door. Also how does the door come out? Would hate to break another piece trying to get it off.

Thanks

I cut a chunk out of a pool floaty to replace mine. It was a flat board like a small surfboard. I picked it up at the local dollar store. It's on its second season and still working fine.

The door usually just pops in. So to remove it you have to very carefully bend it just enough to free the pins from the little holes on the sides.

Thanks! I will give that a try. I'm guessing you took the door off to do this?

Yes I did. It was just a tiny amount of bend to pop it out. Look closely at the sides and you should see the little pin I mentioned. I would take a picture to show you but it's pouring out right now.

I found a picture of your door and it appears to have a little slide to disengage the pin.

Thanks! I usually don't start pool maintenance this early in the season but our pump and robot both died late last season and I am wanting to get ahead of this green stuff before warmer weather arrives and gives it a chance to spread. Appreciate the help.
