Custom Molded Products 25140-000-900 In-Ground Gunite Basket

This basket is specifically designed for in-ground gunite pools that use Waterway skimmer systems. Before purchasing, check your existing skimmer housing to confirm it is a Waterway model, as this basket is engineered for that specific fit.

The skimmer basket acts as the first line of defense for your pool's filtration system. Replacing a cracked or damaged basket prevents large debris from bypassing the trap and clogging your pump, which can lead to costly repairs or system failure.

Yes, this unit is constructed to withstand the standard demands of in-ground pool maintenance. While it is a durable replacement, it is still a consumable part that should be inspected regularly for signs of wear or brittleness caused by pool chemicals and sun exposure.

Yes, this model includes a handle designed to make lifting the basket out of the skimmer housing straightforward. This allows you to clear debris quickly without needing to reach into the water.

There is no set expiration date, but you should replace it immediately if you notice cracks, holes, or warping. A damaged basket can allow debris to pass through to your pump, so it is best to inspect it every time you empty the skimmer.
