Product Description
Ensure a clean and efficient pool with the Custom Molded Products (CMP) 25140-010-000 In-Ground Skimmer. This professional-grade, high-flow skimmer is engineered for permanent installation in gunite/concrete residential swimming pools. The durable construction features a white ABS body with PVC ports, providing excellent resistance to corrosion, UV damage, and harsh pool chemicals.
The skimmer is designed with dual 2-inch slip ports (2" socket x 2.5" spigot connections) capable of handling flow rates up to 75 gallons per minute (GPM), ensuring powerful surface debris removal. It comes without a float valve assembly, simplifying installations where an external flow control method or an equalizer line is not needed. The included standard basket and round white lid (9-5/8" diameter) offer convenient top access for maintenance while blending seamlessly into your pool deck aesthetic.

⚠️ Warnings and Disclaimers
- Installation Requirement: The installation of all pool components must comply with all applicable local and national codes, including the Virginia Graeme Baker Act (VGBA).
- Safety Barrier: This product is a component of a pool circulation system. It does not replace the need for proper pool fencing, alarms, or supervision to prevent drowning.
- Pressure Test: Plumbing connections must be properly glued and sealed before concrete decking is poured. Always pressure test the system before backfilling or finishing the pool shell.
- Chemical Damage: Do not pour granular chlorine directly into the skimmer as it can cause corrosion or damage to internal components and pump seals.
💡 Professional Tips
- Flow Management: The 2-inch pipe size is ideal for standard residential pumps up to 1.5 HP for optimal performance.
- Concrete Pour: Ensure the skimmer is firmly supported and protected during the concrete pour to maintain proper elevation and prevent cracking around the throat.
- Alternative Connection: While it has 2" internal threads, this skimmer also often features 1.5" external threads for plumbing versatility (check your specific unit to confirm).
- Gasket & Faceplate: This item is just the main body; you will need a corresponding concrete pool faceplate and gasket set to finish the installation correctly during the final stages.
