If your existing face plate has cracked at the mounting points, inspect the surrounding skimmer housing for stress fractures before fitting the replacement — a warped housing can put immediate pressure on the new panel and shorten its service life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- wft:processed:manual:2026-06-22 --\u003e","brand":"Hayward","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51774165614867,"sku":"SPX1097D","price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0920\/0687\/5411\/files\/hayward-cycolac-face-plate-for-auto-skim-skimmer-sp1096-spx1097d-2.webp?v=1787905190","url":"https:\/\/poolaroo.com\/products\/hayward-cycolac-skimmer-face-plate-spx1097d","provider":"Poolaroo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
