Hayward Auto-Skim Wide Track Square Skimmer, 1-1/2 in. FIP, 9.25 in. Throat (SP10852)
A 15.5 in. face for vinyl and fiberglass pools.
The Hayward SP10852 Auto-Skim Wide Track is a large capacity, square-cover skimmer for vinyl and fiberglass pools, with a 15.5 in. skimmer face, a 9.25 in. throat and 1-1/2 in. FIP plumbing. Hayward molds it from ABS with no assembly seams below the water level, and the cover and collar adjust up to 1.5 in. vertically. Hayward lists it for in-ground pools, residential or commercial.
Why PST Customers Pick This
Wide Track Opening
The Wide Track series has a 15.5 in. skimmer face. Hayward says the enlarged opening gives increased skimming action and less time spent removing debris.
Seamless ABS Body
Molded from durable, non-corrosive ABS, with no assembly seams below the water level.
Adjustable Square Collar
The square cover and collar adjust up to 1.5 in. vertically. Hayward's optional extension collar adds 2.5 in. more, and its stackable notched collar allows infinite adjustment.
Integral Flo-Control
A built-in Flo-Control slide plate sets the draw: fully open for full flow, or slid over the pump outlet to trim it.
Float Valve Ready
Accepts Hayward's optional SP1082FV float valve for a thru-skimmer suction outlet system. When flow over the weir drops, the float snaps shut and draws from the suction outlet line to prevent possible air lock.
Commercial Conversion
For commercial requirements, Hayward pairs the square-cover Auto-Skim with the SP1082FVEKIT float valve and equalizer kit and the NSF approved WG1082E cover.
Plumbing Notice
Hayward warns that if the skimmer is installed with an equalizer line, that line needs a suction outlet assembly certified to ANSI/APSP/ICC-16 with a certified flow rating of at least 55 GPM, and it cannot count as one of the pool's blockable suction outlets. Follow local codes on pipe sizes and equalizer lines, and never operate or test the circulation system above 50 PSI.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does it work on a vinyl liner pool?
Yes. Hayward builds the Auto-Skim for vinyl and fiberglass pools. On a vinyl liner pool, the manual has you hang the liner first, then set the second gasket and face plate, piercing the liner through the face plate holes one at a time as you drive the 16 screws, and finally cut the liner out along the inside edge of the face plate.
How big is the wall cut-out?
For the SP1085 Wide Track series in panels other than wood, Hayward specifies an opening 5-13/16 to 5-15/16 in. high and 15-7/16 to 15-3/4 in. wide, plus 20 holes of 1/4 in. diameter (16 thru holes, 4 for securing screws). In a wood panel, cut the opening about 1/8 in. larger than the outside of the skimmer face.
Can I vacuum through the skimmer?
Yes. Remove the cover and basket, screw the hose adapter into the pump outlet, fill the vacuum hose with water and slip it over the adapter. Hayward also offers the optional SP1106 and SP1107 Skim-Vac plates that sit over the basket.
Can it be used on a commercial pool?
Hayward lists it for commercial and in-ground pools. To meet commercial requirements, add the optional SP1082FVEKIT float valve and equalizer valve kit with the NSF approved WG1082E cover.
What does the warranty cover?
Hayward warrants its skimmers against defects in materials and workmanship for 1 year from purchase in single-family residential use. Damage from freezing, negligence, improper installation or improper use or care is excluded.

Let customers speak for us
The product was delivered on time and came as advertised.
Quickly shipped and the best part is it now installed and working
You're the only one that had a 3.5" lens. I'm happy that it's one piece.
Good transaction, the only problem is I bought the wrong size allen wrench. I should have bought the 1/4” one.
All I can say is great customer service. Their products are good too
We had the older version and this dropped right in. Great buy!
I can’t wait for my mini Goldendoodle to be buzz for Halloween! It’s not bulky and small that it won’t bother him. He’s 32 lbs and I got the M/L
No issues with it. I received great customer service ensuring I chose the right thing and shipping was really fast.
Can not say enough about the Balboa retro fit system. I’m no expert, but I watched a you tube video and installed it myself. Hot tub is 14 years old and is up and running like new. Very pleased with my purchase. Thank you.
The process was smooth and lights arived as expected. Everything test out in good working order.
Needed to replace the control overlay on our Nordic Impulse hot tub, but could not find out the make or model number of the actual control panel on our tub. By taking measurements and photos or our actual control panel button positions and functions, I was able to narrow down the options. I ordered this overlay as the button positions seemed to be in the right positions, even though the overall size was smaller than the control panel. The overlay works, in that all buttons and functions are in the right place, and the overlay seems to have adhered well to the panel. It is not a perfect match, as it is smaller overall than it should be. But I am happy with the result and will buy an additional identical overlay as a backup in case this one, too, deteriorates at some point. Took a lot of detecting, but the result is successful!
This costume is legit. It has the sparkle, glittery sheen to it like the one used on screen! Very happy with it!!
Excellent service!
PST was great at communicating the status of my order throughout the various stages. I actually did encounter a shipment issue and they handled it without issue. I will be doing business again with them.
