Waterway – Front Access Spa Skim Filter with One Filter

The Waterway 510-1600 front access skim filter is a replacement hot tub and spa skimmer with an integrated 10 sq. ft. cartridge filter. It has a socket for 2-inch or 1.5-inch pipe and includes an EZ flow basket and a flow control diverter valve. This version is supplied with one filter and is available in white only.

What the Waterway 510-1600 skimmer includes

This hot tub skimmer combines the skimming and filtering functions in a single housing. The integrated cartridge filter is the PWW10 type, with a filter area of 10 sq. ft.

Inside the skimmer you will find:

• an EZ flow basket
• a flow control diverter valve
• fixing screws
• a gasket

The screws and gasket are supplied, so you have what is needed to fit the skimmer to the spa shell.

Pipe connection: 1.5-inch or 2-inch

The skimmer has a socket that connects to either 2-inch or 1.5-inch pipe, so it can suit different plumbing layouts.

• 1.5-inch pipe: glue the pipe directly into the fitting on the base of the skimmer.
• 2-inch pipe: glue an elbow or a straight connector onto the skimmer fitting first.

Decide which connection your spa uses before you start, so you have the correct fitting to hand.

Dimensions and colour

Compare these measurements with your existing skimmer before ordering a replacement:

• Total height: 38 cm (15.06″)
• Width (base): 12.5 cm (4.93″)

This Waterway front access skimmer is only available in white. Waterway no longer manufactures the grey version, so a grey skimmer cannot be ordered under this part number.

Choosing the right skim filter

Check that the size, the front access design and the pipe connection match the skimmer you are replacing. The Waterway part number for this skimmer is 510-1600. Use it when you compare the item with the part you are replacing or when you search for the same skimmer again later.

The cartridge filter is built into this skimmer and is of the PWW10 type, so keep that in mind when planning future filter replacements.
