    I wish I knew the answer to your question, but I don't. Somebody here should, though. Just wanted to welcome you to the Pool Forum and let you know that your post had been read and that you aren't being ignored. Things have just been super busy around right about now with everyone trying to get their pools perfect for Memorial Day weekend! Sit tight .....

    Thanks, I think I've tracked it down to be called a "skimmer diverter valve"

    Are your main drains connected to the 2nd port in the bottom of your skimmers?

    I think yes. But I don't know how to confirm that. The valve I have on the suction side of the pump controls each side of skimmer. I assume it also disables the corresponding floor drain, too.
