Skimmer & Main Drain Additional Notes

The skimmer does not appear to be in working condition at this time, due to the second opening port being blocked (most likely since construction) and it is intended to be open and flowing to the main drain (since this pool does not have an independent main drain line). Recommend removing this plug and installing the skimmer float to ensure proper working condition.

The main drain cover is not VGBA compliant, and neither is the spa main drain cover(s) x2, recommend replacement for safety ($88x3)
