No tools are required, just replace your existing skimmer plate by simply pressing the plug in place to close off the skimmer!

Just happened to see this when looking for something else for the pool. Have had the pool for 30 years and never had one of these. Makes closing the pool easier. Fits well and as pool level rises during winter/spring it keeps the anti freeze in and water out of the skimmer box. Was easy to install and worth the money. Review: Fitting very important - Excellent fit like a glove ## Features - Fits most standard 8" inground skimmers - Will fit: Hayward SP1084, SP1089, Kafko, Pentair, Waterway, Sta-Rite, Aquador 1084. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #391,760 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #968 in Pool Rakes, Skimmers & Nets | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 257 Reviews | ## Images ![SimPoolTech IGSD-H Winterizing Skimmer Plug In-Ground Pool 7 9/16 Inch Width x 5 5/8 Inch Height - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/511Y-e9dyAL.jpg) ![SimPoolTech IGSD-H Winterizing Skimmer Plug In-Ground Pool 7 9/16 Inch Width x 5 5/8 Inch Height - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71ejrtUtcrL.jpg) ![SimPoolTech IGSD-H Winterizing Skimmer Plug In-Ground Pool 7 9/16 Inch Width x 5 5/8 Inch Height - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41dqTbdsVBL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well *by K***S on January 24, 2025* Didn't know we needed this! Just happened to see this when looking for something else for the pool. Have had the pool for 30 years and never had one of these. Makes closing the pool easier. Fits well and as pool level rises during winter/spring it keeps the anti freeze in and water out of the skimmer box. Was easy to install and worth the money. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fitting very important *by B***O on November 15, 2025* Excellent fit like a glove ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Okay *by K***Y on December 31, 2023* This worked okay for our pool. However we did notice that it is not waterproof. We placed something on top of it as well to help protect the pool skimmer. I do like the look of it though and it does fit nicely. --- ## 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.at/products/6165080-simpooltech-igsd-h-winterizing-skimmer-plug-in-ground-pool-7](https://www.desertcart.at/products/6165080-simpooltech-igsd-h-winterizing-skimmer-plug-in-ground-pool-7) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-05-15*
