A seal for a pool skimmer is provided. The seal is attached to the inner periphery
of the faceplate, at the opening for fluid passage from the pool to the skimmer
housing and filter assembly. In this manner, the surface of the seal is generally
flush with the faceplate. Moreover, the fasteners which secure the faceplate and
the skimmer housing to the pool sidewall remain accessible for later adjustment
by the pool owner or pool service personnel with the seal securely in place.
