About This Item
The Pentair Vari-Flo Control Insert (85002600) is the OEM replacement flow-control insert for the Pentair Admiral Skimmer.
What It Does
The Vari-Flo control insert regulates water flow within the Admiral Skimmer, allowing adjustment of suction between the skimmer and the bottom drain or secondary port. When the insert wears, cracks, or seats improperly, balanced flow control is lost. This OEM replacement restores precise flow regulation to the skimmer's suction line.

Poolaroo Pro Tip
When replacing the Vari-Flo control insert, inspect the skimmer port seat and surrounding housing for wear or debris that could prevent the new insert from seating squarely. A properly seated insert is essential for consistent suction balance — an imperfect seat will cause the same uneven flow the replacement was meant to correct.
