Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this work with my current skimmer basket?
A: Yes, the Poolife™ NST™ Skimstack is designed to fit most standard skimmer baskets and includes clip-on hardware for easy installation.
Q: Can I mix different types of tablets in the insert?
A: No. Never place Cal Hypo and Trichlor tablets in the Skimstack at the same time — doing so can result in a hazardous chemical reaction.
Q: How many tablets should I use at once?
A: The insert holds up to 3 tablets. Start with 1–2 and adjust based on your pool size and chlorine demand to maintain 1–4 ppm.
Q: Does this product help with chlorine tablet waste?
A: Yes. By keeping tablets separate from debris and ensuring even water exposure, the insert helps reduce crumbling and dissolving inefficiencies.
Q: Can I leave the Skimstack insert in year-round?
A: It’s best to remove the Skimstack insert during winterization or extended periods of non-use. Always store in a dry, cool place when not in service.
Q: Does this help my chlorine last longer?
A: Yes! By keeping tablets off the skimmer floor and out of debris, the Skimstack promotes even, efficient tablet dissolution, which helps reduce waste and extend chlorine performance.
Q: Is this insert reusable season after season?
A: Absolutely. The Skimstack is made of durable, chemical-resistant materials built to withstand multiple seasons with proper care and cleaning.
Q: Will it interfere with skimmer suction or water flow?
A: No. The open design allows proper water circulation while safely holding tablets in place. Just ensure the insert is properly clipped and not overfilled.
