Sears/Muskin Pool Skimmer

I have a 10 year old Muskin made 27' above ground pool and I can not find a replacement skimmer. I have gone to the local pool stores and was told that Muskin is no longer in business and they did not have an answer for me. I would like to know where I can find this part.


Hi Josh. Muskin was sold years ago and are just operating under a different name. The old style skimmer was dropped at the same time. Since Sears has sold Muskin pools for many years they are a possible avenue for parts. This store Muskin Pool Parts is probably going to be your best bet. It shows they carry the skimmer but also says you should call to place your order as there stock on hand varies.

Muskin used two sizes of skimmers. They had a standard size and a very large one. A standard size Hayward skimmer should fit the smaller opening. No one makes a replacement for the larger one, it is a very odd size.

If you were in the process of changing a liner, and had the larger skimmer, I would tape a large piece of flat stock over the opening on the inside of the wall. I would then cut a new opening for a standard size skimmer.
