I have an old pool with a single skimmer and only one return jet which doesn't have any threads or "eyeball" -will PoolSkim work in this setup?

Polaris makes a stub pipe connector adapter in 1 inch and 1-1/2 inch. It inserts into a straight pipe return that does not have threads. You can then use the male fitting that comes with the Poolskim. You can find out more about it by doing a search on Amazon for Zodiac stub pipe connector.

You will need threads on the return. I have an old lol with one skimmer and return also.

My pool only has a single skimmer with one return. Mine did have the eyeball thing though. In my case I simply unscrewed the eyeball and then screwed the Poolskim onto the threads from where the eyeball used to be. I'm pretty sure that you need threads to connect it to. If you don't you could probably visit a home improvement store and pick up some threaded coupling to make it work.

no, the skimmer has to screw on to the discharge pipe going back into the pool. the skimmer comes with a sack full of glue type fittings it's possible you might find something that would fit what ever you have for a discharge line.

If you want to be absolutely sure, maybe contact the company selling them and ask if they could send you the paper template (which they send out with the skimmer housing) and then you can check that the bolt holes and dimensions match the sizes/ placement of your current pool wall. If they wont do that ,you could ask someone on here to download a diagram for you on here if they still have the paper template.

I'm not sure, I just plug it into the return fitting where the skimmer basket is located. You need to keep the debris basket emptied next to your pump however.

Quite the opposite. Most of the larger debris (leaves, bugs, etc.) will end up in the poolskim bag, so your existing skimmer will have less debris which has the added benefit of less frequent cleaning of your DE filter.

I have the 4x Poolvergnuegen. It works perfectly. Connectors should be the same on 2x and 4x.1. Make sure to have the canister in the right direction. Vac connects to the end canister that has the lid, the other end of canister connects to skimmer.2. Hose ends are male and female. You may need a 'connector' hose with two female ends.

It fits the 1 1/2 standard jet. No adapter. I wouldn't buy them. All of the stock at our pool supply store were being returned because they were all defective. I contacted Flolight directly and got no response.

I'm a new pool owner and not familiar with salt systems to say whether this will work or not.

Yes, I had a soft side with a skimmer. You may need the skimmer adapter like I did, but it's only a couple dollars from Amazon. I couldn't keep my pool clean until I got this pump, it's great!

Absolutely NOT. You do need to specify to the manufacturer that u have am Intex pool. He will supply with the necessary parts. You will need to remove the plastic return screen. Worth your time and money &#128515;&#128515;

Yes. It comes with different connections And that one should be included. Escapes and intex pools are in essences the same. I empy the catch bag under water by taking vac end off pulling bag out and emtying alway keeping vac head under waterHope it helps. Good luckTip. Make a whirl pool all dirt will settle in middle and vac away

Yes it will. I installed my new skimmer a week ago and it is working just fine.

It worked perfectly with my soft side intex pool, although mine is the metal frame style. I think the connections should be identical to mine so you should be good. They provide all kinds of adapters (I had to use nearly everything they provide to make it work). Good luck!

Yes, you can, and it is the better solution then through the scimmer. Most likely you have to use the valve.It is actually easy to set up. You probably have already tried all possible configurations ;) good luck and a clean pool !

As I mentioned in my review, this was not an exact replacement for the Summer Escapes skimmer, filter, pump combination. The best thing would be to see if it is as least as big or bigger than your existing skimmer. As long as it's as big or bigger it's not a problem to trim the opening and punch new holes for the screws like I did.

The kreepy krauly should work as it does not rely on wheels for its motion. The manufacturer may recommend a specific model based on the construction of your pool.

Yes. I used it with one until my swf system died. The swf system hooks up after the pump, before the jet that blows the water back in the pool.

Didn't work for mine. I ended up buying an sfs1000 skimmer canister, and this part works great with that. The opening of the basket is the same as well on the summer escapes pool, so you won't have any issue installing it.
