Pentair Bermuda Pool Deck Skimmer Weir 51-6222 / 516252 — White OEM Replacement, 5-3/8" x 8-1/2"

This genuine Pentair PacFab Bermuda skimmer weir is a direct replacement for worn or damaged deck skimmer flappers. Designed to match the original equipment on Bermuda-style pool decks, this white weir (also sold under part numbers 51-6222, 516252, and 51-6252Z) restores the skimmer’s ability to regulate surface flow and improve debris capture. It’s molded to the OEM dimensions for a secure fit and long-lasting performance.

How does this weir restore skimmer performance?

The weir acts as a free-moving flap that responds to surface conditions, helping maintain correct water level and surface skimming action. Replacing a cracked or warped weir prevents skimmer bypass and reduces debris entering the pump basket. Installation returns the skimmer to its intended operation without modifying the deck or skimmer housing.

• OEM fit for Pentair PacFab Bermuda skimmers — no trimming required
• Properly balances water flow to improve surface debris pickup
• Prevents leaves and floating debris from passing around the skimmer
• White finish matches common Bermuda deck aesthetics

What are the exact dimensions and compatibility details?

This weir matches the original Pentair PacFab specifications so it fits Bermuda deck skimmer housings that use these part numbers. Check your skimmer face and mounting points against the dimensions to confirm fit before ordering. The part was manufactured to replace several Pentair/PacFab reference numbers.

• Length: 5-3/8 inches; Width: 8-1/2 inches

How do I install the replacement weir?

Installation is straightforward: remove the old flap from the skimmer face, inspect the hinge and housing for debris, and snap the new weir into place. No special tools are typically required, but a flathead screwdriver can help gently release the old part. Ensure the hinge moves freely after installation for optimal skimming.

• Remove old weir by disengaging hinge clips or screws
• Clean hinge recess and check mounting points for damage
• Align new weir and press until it snaps securely into hinge
• Verify free movement and proper float action in the water
