Tried your method. Great idea. Mine however (same Waterway) basket and box as you have was so stuck, I took a rammer, smashed out the bottom of the basket, removed the bottom of the basket and now have access for my vacuum hose. The replacement basket - identical, simply is nested into place and no longer have to worry about it twisting into the locking lugs as it simply sits on top of the old basket. Naturally, I use a stone to keep the basket in place while the pump is off.
Garrett, you are a genius! I only had one electrical box handy, but the physics worked. Thank you from a transplanted New Jersey-ian.
Awesome!...thank you for the nice comment!
Thanks Garrett!!! Removed our stuck skimmer basket without having to ‘drill’ or ‘cut’ it out! We are keeping this ‘tool’ with our pool equipment. Thank you!!!!
Yeah I’ve been trying for a while to get mine out. The thing doesn’t budge. I might have to try this!
I tried this but i still cant get the basket to turn. Its impossible to turn, any advice? Thx!
Make sure you are using a 4 11/16" box...not the standard 4" box, turn counter clockwise, if that doesn't work then you need to carefully cut the basket to remove it...😞
Turn the filter off, clean the basket and go
Until you need to put the vacuum hose in to clean the pool.
