Weltico A400 design skimmer renovation kit with mouth faceplate white 60662
The Weltico A400 design skimmer renovation kit with mouth faceplate white 60662 is a complete refurbishment set for A400 design skimmers.
It allows you to renew the sealing parts and front appearance of the skimmer while keeping the existing body in place, ideal for liner,
concrete liner, shell and panel liner pools that already use a Weltico A400 design skimmer.
Overview and typical use
This renovation kit is designed for situations where the Weltico A400 design skimmer itself is still structurally sound, but the sealing
gaskets, counter flange and visible mouth area need to be replaced or refreshed. The white mouth faceplate clips onto the existing
skimmer opening, while the new seals and counter flange secure the liner and restore watertightness around the skimmer throat.
By using this kit, you can carry out a clean renovation of the A400 skimmer front without breaking the pool wall or removing the original
built in skimmer body, which makes it a very practical solution for renovation projects.
Kit contents and compatibility
The Weltico A400 design skimmer renovation kit with mouth faceplate white 60662 includes all front side parts required to refurbish the
mouth area of an A400 design skimmer. The elements are dimensioned specifically for the 200 x 400 millimetre A400 opening and are
compatible with A400 design versions installed in different pool structures.
- Two sealing gaskets for skimmer mouth and liner interface.
- Counter flange to clamp the liner or finish against the skimmer opening.
- White clip on mouth faceplate for the A400 design skimmer.
- New skimmer flap matched to the A400 design opening.
- Complete hardware set with screws for assembly.
The kit is suitable for A400 design skimmers installed in concrete, concrete liner, shell and panel liner pools, as the mouth faceplate
clips onto the existing A400 front regardless of the structure type.
Benefits of the white mouth faceplate
The white mouth faceplate supplied with this kit restores a clean, bright look around the skimmer opening and ensures a neat transition
between the pool wall finish and the skimmer throat. The design follows the A400 aesthetic, with smooth lines and a wide rectangular
opening that matches the original skimmer.
- Fresh white front for a neutral, timeless appearance around the skimmer.
- Clip on system allows colour change or renewal without dismantling the skimmer body.
- Precisely shaped to match the A400 design throat and flap geometry.
On PoolParthub.com this kit sits within the wider range of Weltico A400 design skimmer spare parts, making it easy to combine the mouth
renovation with other front side components if required.
Sealing performance and renovation advantages
Renewing the gaskets and counter flange is essential to maintain a watertight seal around the skimmer mouth, especially on older liner
pools where the original seals have compressed or hardened. With the two new seals, counter flange and hardware included, the kit
restores correct clamping pressure and helps prevent seepage between the liner and the skimmer body.
- New gaskets compensate for ageing and compression of existing seals.
- Counter flange distributes clamping force evenly across the opening.
- New flap improves surface skimming efficiency and silent operation.
Because the renovation is carried out from the pool side, the A400 renovation kit with mouth faceplate white 60662 minimises structural
work and allows many refurbishment projects to be completed without heavy demolition.
Installation and practical considerations
Installation of the Weltico A400 design skimmer renovation kit with mouth faceplate white 60662 should always be carried out with the
filtration system stopped and the water level managed according to the installerโs method. In many cases the water surface is lowered
slightly below the skimmer opening to allow comfortable access to the mouth area and the fixing screws.
- Remove the existing front screws, counter flange, flap and old seals from the A400 mouth.
- Clean the skimmer throat and liner contact area to remove scale and debris.
- Position the new gaskets and counter flange according to the A400 assembly layout.
- Install the new flap and then clip the white mouth faceplate onto the existing skimmer front.
- Tighten the screws gradually and evenly to compress the gaskets without deforming the plastic.
After refilling the pool to normal level and restarting filtration, the skimmer area should be checked carefully to confirm that no
moisture appears around the mouth and that the flap moves freely with the water level.
Maintenance tips for long lasting results
Once the renovation kit is installed, periodic visual checks help preserve the effectiveness of the new components. Keeping the skimmer
basket clean, monitoring water level and avoiding impacts on the mouth faceplate all contribute to a durable refurbishment.
- Inspect the front face and screw heads annually for signs of movement or stress.
- Maintain balanced water chemistry to protect gaskets and plastic parts.
- Clean around the skimmer mouth gently to avoid scratching the white faceplate.
- Check the flap motion from time to time to ensure unobstructed surface skimming.
With correct installation and basic seasonal maintenance, the Weltico A400 design skimmer renovation kit with mouth faceplate white 60662
provides a long lasting visual and functional upgrade to existing A400 design skimmers.
