1. Introducció
The Hayward SP1107 Skim Vac is a vacuum plate designed to facilitate efficient cleaning of in-ground pools. It connects directly to your pool's skimmer basket, allowing a vacuum hose to draw water and debris through the skimmer system. This method streamlines the vacuuming process by eliminating the need to repeatedly turn the pump on and off, and it utilizes the skimmer basket for debris collection instead of the pump strainer basket.
