What Is a Skimmer Weir?
A skimmer weir is a movable flap at a wall-mounted skimmer opening that helps draw water from near the pool surface.
How It Works
The hinged weir moves inward as water enters the skimmer. Its floating edge helps skim a shallow surface layer. It is separate from the basket that catches debris. The diagram explains the function, not a replacement-part fit.
