The Cyclone is heavy enough to stay on top of the skimmer basket when pump turns off. Does not float. **Q: Which Picture contains the product?** A: Here is the Cyclone in action. Just sits on top of your skimmer basket and goes to work. **Q: Can you use this with a basket sock?** A: Yes! The cyclone sits on top of the basket, so it doesn’t matter if there is or is not a sock. Please let us know if you have further questions! **Q: Wouldn’t this cause my air to be drawn into the pump and filter creating a cyclone?** A: Hi Jeff, The Cyclone does increase the water flow in the skimmer. In the event the suction is too strong, "sucking in air", there are a couple suggestion to correct this. 1) Flip the Cyclone upside down, this will still increase your water flow but with a reduced flow rate, depending on your water level. Water level plays a key role here. 2) Reduce / redirect the skimmer suction at your main filter unit, which will also increase suction at the other intake sights to a desirable setting that still allows the Cyclone to create the water flow in your skimmer and now increasing water suction to your other intake sights as well. The Weir Wedge is an excellent tool to open the weir door / skimmer float door to allow water to more freely enter the skimmer. If it allows too much water in to the skimmer causing too strong of a Cyclone, then remove the Weir Wedge and see how it adjusts the water flow. Please note, this version of the Cyclone fits an 8" skimmer basket. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Skimmie Cyclone (Skimmer Basket NOT Included) - Turbocharges Pool Skimmer Water Flow - Improves Pool Surface Cleaning & Debris Removal - 8" Funnel Design Works with Any Pool Water Level - U.S. Pool Supply Swimming Pool Plastic Skimmer Replacement Basket (Set of 2) - Skimmer Basket for Inground Pool, Skim Filter Remove Leaves and Debris - 8" Top, 5.5" Bottom, 5" Deep - Not Weighted - Coopache 30-Pack of Pool Skimmer Socks - Filters Baskets, Skimmers Cleans Debris and Leaves for In-Ground and Above Ground Pools --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/529109889-the-skimmie-cyclone-skimmer-basket-not-included-turbocharges-pool-skimmer](https://www.desertcart.us/products/529109889-the-skimmie-cyclone-skimmer-basket-not-included-turbocharges-pool-skimmer) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-08-01*
