Weltico A500 design skimmer renovation kit 63540
The Weltico A500 design skimmer renovation kit 63540 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 refreshes the appearance of the waterline 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 63540 a practical option during liner replacement or when renovating an existing pool.
Kit contents and compatibility
The Weltico A500 design skimmer renovation kit 63540 brings together the key 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.
- Front cover 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 renovating the A500 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 63540 you restore a uniform finish at the waterline and renew the sealing between the A500 skimmer body and the pool structure.
- Fresh front elements for a clean, consistent look around the skimmer mouth.
- New gaskets to improve watertight contact with the liner or wall finish.
- Refurbishment from inside the pool without changing the in wall skimmer body.
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 63540 restores correct clamping pressure and helps ensure long term watertightness around the A500 opening.
- New 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 offers 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 63540 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 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 63540 is installed, simple seasonal checks help preserve both the appearance and sealing performance of the renewed skimmer front.
- Inspect the front elements 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 finish.
- Check surface skimming regularly to confirm that water flows freely towards the skimmer mouth.
With correct installation and basic maintenance, this kit provides a durable visual and functional upgrade for existing Weltico A500 design skimmers in a wide range of residential pool configurations.
