Oreq Skimmer Weir 8 3/8" – Universal Replacement Flap
A properly functioning skimmer weir is critical for keeping surface debris moving into your skimmer instead of drifting back into the pool. When a weir door becomes warped, cracked, or stuck open, skimming efficiency drops immediately—leaves float back out, circulation suffers, and debris settles where it shouldn’t. The Oreq 8 3/8" Skimmer Weir restores proper one-way water flow, allowing your skimmer to capture debris efficiently and maintain consistent surface circulation.
Designed as a universal replacement, this rigid yet flexible weir flap fits many common in-ground pool skimmers that require an 8 3/8-inch weir. It installs quickly without tools and immediately improves debris capture and water movement.
This is a pool-industry replacement weir built for real skimmer systems—not a flimsy, short-life substitute.
Why the Skimmer Weir Matters
The skimmer weir acts as a check valve for your pool’s surface water. It opens as water flows into the skimmer and closes when the pump shuts off, preventing debris from washing back into the pool.
A damaged or missing weir often leads to:
-
Poor surface debris removal
-
Reduced circulation efficiency
-
Increased strain on the pump and filter
-
Debris returning to the pool after shutdown
Replacing a worn weir is one of the simplest and most cost-effective ways to improve overall pool cleanliness.
Universal Fit with Durable Construction
The Oreq 8 3/8" Skimmer Weir is molded from UV-resistant material designed to withstand constant sun exposure, chemical contact, and repeated movement. Its balanced hinge design allows smooth operation without sticking or binding, even after extended use.
Once installed, the weir maintains steady surface flow and consistent skimmer performance throughout the day.
