Flotide/MEGA - Skimmer Basket with Handle - 7034362

Flotide/MEGA – Skimmer Basket with Handle for Type Standard Skimmer No. 4

This is the genuine Flotide/MEGA replacement skimmer basket with integrated handle, designed specifically for the Flotide/MEGA Type Standard Skimmer No. 4. The basket sits inside the skimmer housing and intercepts leaves, insects, and other coarse debris before they can reach the pump, protecting your filtration system and keeping pool water clear.

Compatibility

This basket is a direct OEM replacement for the Flotide/MEGA Type Standard Skimmer No. 4. It is engineered to fit the exact housing dimensions of that skimmer model, ensuring a secure, rattle-free fit with no modification required. If you are unsure which skimmer model is installed at your pool, check the label or documentation on your skimmer lid before ordering.

Why Genuine Matters

Aftermarket baskets may differ in mesh spacing, rim diameter, or material thickness, which can allow debris to bypass the basket or cause the basket to sit loosely in the housing. The genuine Flotide/MEGA part is manufactured to the same specification as the original, guaranteeing a proper seal against the housing and consistent debris capture season after season.

Installation

Replacement is straightforward: remove the skimmer lid, lift out the old basket by its handle, rinse the housing, and drop the new basket into place. The moulded handle makes retrieval and emptying easy without needing tools or getting your hands wet. Regular cleaning of the basket — ideally every few days during heavy leaf fall — will maintain optimal flow to the pump.
