Pentair L1 Replacement Skimmer Lid with Thermometer, White

The Pentair L1 is a white skimmer lid with a thermometer built into the face. It is listed as a replacement lid for SwimQuip, Swimrite, Jacuzzi new style and Hayward skimmers.

Why a lid thermometer

Floating thermometers drift to the far end of the pool, get carried off, and crack when the wind pins them against the wall. Putting the gauge in the skimmer lid fixes the reading in one place, at the spot you already walk past when you empty the basket.

Build

The thermometer face is hermetically sealed for strength and weather resistance, and the reading is not affected by the air temperature around it, so what you see is the water.

Before you order

Skimmer lids differ between manufacturers and between generations of the same skimmer. Measure the diameter of the lid you are replacing and compare it against the brands listed above before ordering.
