## Description

Product Description Hayward SP1091LX Dyna-Skim Above-Ground Pool Skimmer and Accessory Kit From the Manufacturer Hayward automatic skimmers have been an industry standard for more than 30 years.

Review: It's a Hayward for goodness sake - I wanted to write this and add some more information onto some of the other reviews hoping to help others who may be considering this product. First of all, this is a Hayward product. They don't have an impeccable reputation for no reason. The skimmer is solidly built, the door has a clever retaining design making it easy to install/remove from either the inside or the outside of the skimmer, and it comes with the return nozzle and all the fittings you will need for 1 1/2" flexible lines. (Well... except for the hose clamps) The basket is plastic, as they always are, but this one seems substantial and I expect it will take a considerable amount of "empty the basket beatings" before I have to worry about looking for a replacement. As for the specifics of my install... I installed this on a 12' metal-frame Intex pool. (See my customer shot above) Other reviews mentioned this working on similar pools so I tool the chance figuring it would be close. I'm really glad I did. The Hayward was about 3/4" of an inch taller than the crappy Intex skimmer that the pool came with. I simply took the gasket and traced the inside on the pool liner after removing the Intex skimmer. A utility blade made a nice, clean cut taking about 1/2" off the top and the bottom of the opening. I used a drill bit to create holes for the mounting screws as they (of course) didn't line up with what was there. The Hayward skimmer comes with a single, silicon u-channel gasket that fits inside the opening and completely seals it against the skimmer and the face plate. I really like this design because there is no way water is going to leak like you could get when a two-piece foam gasket starts to break down. Assembly was straight forward and except for ruining a socket wrench because I used it underwater on the lower screws, everything went together very easily and was very solid when assembled. The original Intex skimmer had a stand-off on the lower part that kept the skimmer from torquing under it's own weight. The Hayward doesn't have this but it may be something to consider adding. With the pool full, the liner is pushed out and keeps the skimmer upright so I don't think the kick-stand is required in this case but if you drain the pool for the winter, the skimmer may dip and strain the mounts without something to support it. Would this cause problems? Probably not but I don't see a reason to strain the liner if I don't have to. In my case, I used the hose as a means to support it but a block of wood or a piece of PVC would probably do the trick as well. The return nozzle is standard Hayward design. There is a retainer ring with rubber gaskets that sandwiches the liner. Again, on the Intex pool I had to open the hole just a hair (maybe an 1/8" on the bottom) to get the nozzle to comfortably fit. There is a retaining ring on the pool side and an adjustable nozzle that allows you to direct the stream based on your pool configuration. The included hose adapter would position the hose in-line with the nozzle which, in my case, would make it stick out from the side of the pool. I simple got a 1 1/2" threaded PVC adapter and a right-angle to orient the hose vertically. Since everything is standard 1 1/2" it worked great. The last thing I wanted to mention is the vacuum plate. At first glance I was disappointed because the nozzle on it looks to be 1 1/4" and I have a 1 1/2" vac hose. However, on further inspection it is actually a stepped design with accepts both size hoses! Ingenious! I'm happy to say that it works perfect with my 1 1/2" vac hose (with rotating end) giving a nice, snug fit. With a sufficient pump behind the setup, it works amazing. Overall, this is a great product. I'm extremely happy I bought this and I'm super pleased that it works so well with my Intex pool. This was one part of my "sand filter upgrade" that I made to the Intex pool this year and I'm so happy about all of it that I could dance.
Review: Best upgrade you can give your soft sided pool. - I had one of those skimmers that hung on the rail of my intex pool. It wasn't doing the best job, kept floating away from the wall and would release the debris back into the pool when my pump was off. Not only that, but it reduced the power of my pump. Once my warranty expired on my pool I ordered this bad boy. Installation is tedious, but not hard. I'm a single woman and I had no problems installing this. Installation tips I have to offer: The holes on the skimmer are not pre threaded. Take the time before you install it to screw in the screws in each hole to form the threads. This will make your Install much easier. Trust me. For the love of all that's holy: DO NOT CUT THAT GASKET. I don't care what the dude on YouTube says. Don't do it. The gasket is designed with a purpose. Drain the water from your pool under its an inch below the height of the bottom of where the skimmer will be installed. You want water in the pool to keep the liner stretched. I used an awl (like 3 bucks at walmart to Pierce the holes for the screws. I then installed the entire skimmer minus the gasket. Once that was in place, I used a utility knife to cut the opening. Then I removed the skimmer, and inserted the Un cut gasket into the opening. The gasket is designed specifically to prevent the possibility of leaks and cutting it opens that possibility up and defeats the purpose. Once the gasket was in place, I installed the skimmer again, installed the hoses using a hose converter for my 1.25 inch hoses and filled the pool until it was half way up the skimmer. I plugged both of the old outlet ports and turned on my pump. Not one single leak. Not one. This skimmer has made keeping my pool clean a breeze. There's two trees above my pool so that's not to be taken lightly. I went from hand skimming for 30 min a day and vacuuming daily to vacuuming every couple days with NO hand skimming! Best investment you can make for your pool. I went for the square opening because my pool is only 12x30 but if it were larger I would get the wide mouth opening. If you're using this with a soft sided pool, I'd recommend finding something that will prop the skimmer at a 90 degree angle because the soft wall will let it tip at a weird angle which does affect performance. For my pool, a small plastic patio table right under it did the trick. Hayward has a reputation in the pool industry for a reason. The quality and fit just can't be beat.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What did you use to cut the hole if you needed to, and does it give instructions for doing that?**
A: It’s very easy. With water just below the desired level install the skimmer by using a sharp object to punch out the screw holes. Once it is installed and right THEN take a razor blade and cut out the square opening.

**Q: Will the hose connections fit the intex hoses with the threaded nut? Like with the Intex 56671EG 2,650-Gallon Sand Filter Pump.**
A: David, they do not fit.  Intex uses odd sizing so you have to be creative.  I hard plumbed my skimmer to my sand filter. On the filter side I reused the nut from the Intex hose but on the skimmer side I glued PVC to the skimmer.  I know it is hard to visualize.  Check out this website there is a ton of info on there.  I got my setup off another user and it worked great. Shoot me back if you have any other questions.  http://www.troublefreepool.com/intex-salt-water-generator-swg-hard-plumbing-install-t33866.htmlhttp://www.troublefreepool.com/hard-plumbing-intex-24-above-ground-pool-t57259.html

**Q: Does the used Hayward SP1091LX Dyna-Skim Above-Ground Pool Skimmer come w/gaskets for both sides of the skimmer? 1for the inside & 1 for the outside?**
A: The skimmer comes with a butterfly gasket. It provides the gasket for both inside and outside of the pool and also helps keep chlorinated water from contacting (and rusting) the pool wall.  Butterfly = think of two gaskets which are joined at the outer edge and therefore capable of being slipped over the square pool opening; kind-of-like your index and middle fingers which meet at the bottom.   It works well.

**Q: how big in inch**
A: The opening is about 5in by 5 1/2 in.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best addition to above ground pool!
*by S***Y on April 29, 2026*

This has saved me countless hours of work! It helps to keep my water much clearer! I am happy the body of the unit sits outside the pool instead of inside like some other models. I had the inside type before and the kids kept knocking it around. The Hayward is out of the way of their activities. It was easy to install, although a bit scary to cut into my liner! I used it on one pool for a season, then reinstalled it on my newer pool. It’s very sturdy. Seems well made. Never leaks. Looks nice. I do use skimmer socks to catch even smaller particles than the basket alone would do. I just make sure to check it daily and change the sock frequently to maintain free flow. Highly recommend!
