Swabbie Kit
35 reviewsHere it is...the long awaited DIY skimmer neck cleaner!
Yes, it really is pretty easy to put one together. With our newly designed shaft seal and motor assembly, the You-Built Swabbie goes together with basic tools (small flathead screwdriver and pliers) and common supplies (silicone or hot glue). We include the required acrylic solvent needed to bond the motor assembly's components inside the housing.
The motor housing bonds to your skimmer's lid after a simple modification. See photo instruction manuals below.
Depending on the diameter of your skimmer's neck or riser tube, choose the appropriate blade size as shown in the diagram to the left.
Also available in 220v for non-North American countries.

Such a great product it really does keep skimmer neck clean. If you want to keep maintenance and optimum performance on your skimmer, BUY THIS. on a side note, pick usps for shipping if you're getting shipped to Canada even if its more expensive. UPS charged me flat $70 brokerage fee plus "other" government fees for total of $150 extra
Emailed Avast with questions about the swabbie kit and they informed me of what to get as well as a few options. I bought the kit and then sent them my skimmer lid. They drilled it for me and mailed the lid and kit to me very quickly. Everything was well packaged. They left me a note and a few extra screws in case I had to make modifications. Great experience. I am starting a new build and will be purchasing this kit for my larger skimmer. Highly recommended!
Great product and especially very helpful costumer service thy helped out a lot wen I had ordered the wrong part thy redirected me to the Wright part and sent me the part tht was for my skimmer and I’m hopefully ordering the waste collection soon
