Weltico A800 sand skimmer renovation kit 64232S
The Weltico A800 sand skimmer renovation kit 64232S is a complete front side refurbishment set for A800 design skimmers. It allows you to renew the sealing components and sand coloured front elements while keeping the original in wall skimmer body, ideal for residential pools already equipped with a Weltico A800 skimmer.
Overview and typical use
This renovation kit is intended for pools where the Weltico A800 skimmer body is still structurally sound, but the gaskets, counter flange and front cover have aged, discoloured or no longer seal correctly. By replacing these parts, you restore watertightness around the wide skimmer mouth and give the waterline area a warm sand finish that pairs well with beige liners and natural stone surrounds.
All work is carried out from the pool side, so most refurbishment jobs can be completed without opening the pool shell. This makes the Weltico A800 sand skimmer renovation kit 64232S a practical choice during liner replacement or when modernising the pool edge.
Kit contents and compatibility
The Weltico A800 sand skimmer renovation kit 64232S includes the key front elements required to refurbish the A800 skimmer opening. All parts follow the original A800 design geometry, so they align with the existing throat and fixing pattern on compatible installations.
- New sealing gaskets for the A800 skimmer mouth and pool finish interface.
- Counter flange to clamp the liner or wall finish against the large opening.
- Sand coloured front cover elements matching the A800 design shape and screw layout.
- Hardware set with screws sized for the A800 flange.
The kit is suitable for Weltico A800 design skimmers installed in concrete, concrete liner, shell or panel liner pools, provided the in wall skimmer body is still in good structural condition and uses the original A800 fixing pattern.
Benefits of the sand skimmer front
Exposure to sunlight, fluctuating water levels and pool treatment products gradually affects both the look and flexibility of the skimmer front. With the Weltico A800 sand skimmer renovation kit 64232S you restore a uniform sand coloured finish at the waterline and renew the sealing between the skimmer body and the pool structure.
- Sand coloured front for a soft, natural appearance along the waterline.
- Finish that blends well with beige liners, stone effect tiles and coping.
- Replacement front elements that preserve the original A800 hydraulic opening.
Sealing performance and refurbishment advantages
The sealing gaskets around the skimmer mouth gradually compress and harden, which can lead to seepage or damp marks near the waterline. By replacing the seals and counter flange, the kit restores uniform clamping pressure and supports long term watertightness of the A800 mouth.
- New gaskets compensate for ageing and loss of elasticity in the old seals.
- Counter flange spreads tightening forces evenly across the wide opening.
- Assembly designed to match the tolerances of the original A800 skimmer body.
Because the in wall A800 body remains in place, the renovation kit offers an efficient way to extend the service life of the skimmer with minimal structural work on the pool shell.
Installation and practical considerations
Installation of the Weltico A800 sand skimmer renovation kit 64232S should always be carried out with the filtration system stopped and the water level controlled. In most cases the water surface is lowered just below the skimmer mouth to give comfortable access to the screws and sealing surfaces.
- Remove the existing screws, front cover and old gaskets from the A800 mouth.
- Clean the skimmer throat and contact area to remove scale, dirt and residues.
- Position the new gaskets and counter flange following the A800 assembly layout.
- Fit the new sand coloured front elements, aligning them carefully with the opening.
- Tighten screws gradually in a cross pattern to compress the seals evenly.
After refilling the pool and restarting filtration, the skimmer area should be monitored to confirm that no moisture appears around the mouth and that surface skimming remains stable and quiet.
Maintenance tips after renovation
Once the Weltico A800 sand skimmer renovation kit 64232S is installed, simple seasonal checks help preserve both the visual aspect and the sealing performance of the renewed skimmer front.
- Inspect the sand coloured front and screw heads periodically for movement or stress.
- Keep water chemistry balanced to protect plastic parts and gaskets.
- Clean the front gently with non abrasive products to avoid scratching the finish.
- Check surface skimming regularly to ensure free flow towards the skimmer.
With correct installation and basic maintenance, this kit offers a durable functional and aesthetic upgrade for existing Weltico A800 skimmers in natural style pool designs.
