Weltico A500 design skimmer renovation kit anthracite 63540A
The Weltico A500 design skimmer renovation kit anthracite 63540A is a complete front side refurbishment set for A500 design skimmers. It allows you to renew the sealing parts and visible front elements while keeping the existing in wall skimmer body, ideal for liner, concrete liner, shell and panel liner pools already equipped with a Weltico A500 design skimmer.
Overview and typical use
This renovation kit is intended for pools where the Weltico A500 skimmer body is still structurally sound, but the gaskets, counter flange and front elements have aged, discoloured or no longer seal correctly. By replacing these components, the kit restores watertightness around the skimmer mouth and gives the waterline a modern anthracite finish without having to remove the built in skimmer.
All work is carried out from the pool side, so most refurbishment jobs can be completed without opening the pool wall. This makes the Weltico A500 design skimmer renovation kit anthracite 63540A a practical option during liner replacement or when renovating an existing pool.
Kit contents and compatibility
The Weltico A500 design skimmer renovation kit anthracite 63540A brings together the main front side parts needed to refurbish the A500 skimmer mouth area. Each element is dimensioned to follow the original A500 design geometry for a precise fit on compatible installations.
- New sealing gaskets for the skimmer mouth and liner or wall interface.
- Counter flange to clamp the liner or finish against the wide A500 opening.
- Anthracite front elements matching the A500 design throat and screw positions.
- Hardware set with screws adapted to the A500 flange layout.
The kit is suitable for A500 design skimmers installed in concrete, concrete liner, shell and panel liner pools, as the parts follow the original A500 throat dimensions and fixing pattern specified by the manufacturer.
Benefits of the anthracite skimmer front
Over time, sunlight, waterline deposits and pool treatment products gradually affect both the appearance and flexibility of the front skimmer parts. With the Weltico A500 design skimmer renovation kit anthracite 63540A you restore a uniform dark grey finish at the waterline and renew the sealing between the A500 skimmer body and the pool structure.
- Anthracite front for a contemporary, low contrast look in modern pools.
- Discreet finish that blends well with grey liners, tiles and coping stones.
- Replacement front parts matched to the original A500 design lines.
Sealing performance and refurbishment advantages
Gaskets around the skimmer mouth compress and harden with age, which can create small leaks or damp marks near the waterline. By replacing the seals and counter flange, the Weltico A500 design skimmer renovation kit anthracite 63540A restores correct clamping pressure and helps ensure long term watertightness around the A500 opening.
- Fresh seals compensate for loss of elasticity in original gaskets.
- Counter flange distributes tightening forces evenly around the wide skimmer mouth.
- Optimised assembly for reliable sealing on compatible Weltico A500 design skimmers.
Because the original A500 body remains in place, the kit provides an efficient way to extend the life of an existing skimmer installation with minimal structural work.
Installation and practical considerations
Installation of the Weltico A500 design skimmer renovation kit anthracite 63540A should always be done with filtration stopped and the water level controlled. In most cases the water is lowered slightly below the skimmer mouth to give comfortable access to screws and sealing surfaces.
- Remove the existing screws, front parts and old gaskets from the A500 skimmer mouth.
- Clean the throat and liner or wall contact area thoroughly to remove scale and debris.
- Position the new gaskets and counter flange following the A500 assembly layout.
- Install the new anthracite front elements, aligning them carefully with the opening.
- Tighten the screws gradually in a cross pattern to compress the seals without distortion.
After refilling the pool to its normal level and restarting filtration, the skimmer zone should be observed to confirm that no moisture appears around the mouth and that surface skimming remains smooth and regular.
Maintenance tips after renovation
Once the Weltico A500 design skimmer renovation kit anthracite 63540A is installed, simple seasonal checks help preserve both the appearance and sealing performance of the renewed skimmer front.
- Inspect the anthracite front and screw heads periodically for stress or movement.
- Maintain balanced water chemistry to protect gaskets and plastic components.
- Clean the front gently to avoid scratching or dulling the dark finish.
- Check surface skimming regularly to confirm that water flows freely towards the skimmer mouth.
With correct installation and basic maintenance, this kit offers a durable visual and functional upgrade for existing Weltico A500 design skimmers in contemporary residential pools.
