Summer Waves Polygroup SFS SkimmerPlus Skimmer Vacuum Adapter

thingiverse

This is the Summer Waves SFS SkimmerPlus Vacuum adapter I've created. I've also included a version that accepts an o-ring, recommended size: R-11. Only exterior support are required for the intake, suggested on the main dome. Add interior support blockers to the upper intake cavity and the intake spout as these areas do not need support. Recommended filament is ABS or ASA. Leaving post-printed supports will give the part added strength without affecting performance. Also included is a file for a protective shell, ideal for pools with hard surfaces. This shell will protect the skimmer from impact if accidentally dropped. It can be made using PLA and 35% infill, inner/outer wall count: 5. My adapter was severely damaged when it hit concrete during transfer, prompting me to design this shell. It has since saved me from having to re-print my skimmer plate multiple times. The shell pulls off easily when the setup is in the pool and locks back on again before removal.
