Overview

Tired of your pool cover pushing down or drowning your floating surface skimmer? This 3D-printed Skimmer Guard is the perfect solution! It attaches directly to your skimmer using the original twist-and-click mechanism, creating a protective cage that keeps your pool cover from crushing the floating blue ring.

As a great bonus feature, the grid design acts as a built-in floating basket. You can drop your pool thermometer, chemical dispensers, or small pool toys inside while swimming, keeping them safely contained so they don't float away!

Features & Design

• Perfect Fit: Integrates seamlessly with the standard skimmer twist/click mechanism.
• No Rust 100% 3D Printed Option: The original design used M3 screws/nuts, but due to rust, I have updated the model with snap-on caps. No metal hardware required!
• Real-World Tested: Printed in PLA and successfully tested under a solar pool cover in 40°C (104°F) outdoor temperatures without warping. (Note: If your climate gets even hotter, PETG or ASA is recommended for long-term durability).
