Abstract: A skimmer for a swimming pool may include a skimmer housing having a water inlet opening coupled to an aperture in a wall of the swimming pool at a waterline thereof. The skimmer may also include a weir gate slidably moveable relative to the water inlet opening between open position and a closed position blocking the water inlet opening.

Abstract: A form system for a swimming pool may include outer form panels to be coupled in side-by-side relation corresponding to a desired swimming pool shape. Each outer form panel may include an outer wall panel having opposing first and second ends to be coupled to respective first and second opposing ends of adjacent outer wall panels and a magnet adjacent one of the first and second ends of the outer wall panel. Inner form panels may be coupled in side-by-side relation, and support members couple the outer form panels in spaced relation from the inner form panels to define a wall space therebetween. The form system may also include a tension member to be magnetically coupled to the at least one magnet between adjacent ones of the outer form panels so that the tension member extends across the wall space and between adjacent inner form panels.

Abstract: A form system for an in-ground swimming pool may include inner and outer form panels to be coupled in side-by-side relation. Support members may be for coupling the outer form panels in spaced relation from the inner form panels to define a wall space therebetween. Each of the support members may include a base member to be carried by respective inner and outer form panels over the wall space, an arm extending from the base member for coupling to the respective outer form panel, and a wall support member for coupling to the respective inner form panel. The wall support member may include a wall support lip extending from a wall support body for engaging the respective inner form panel so that the respective inner form panel is suspended from the wall support lip.

Abstract: A method of constructing an in-ground swimming pool may include positioning outer form panels in side-by-side relation defining an outer form wall within an excavated area of ground corresponding to a desired in-ground swimming pool shape. Each outer form panel may have opposing inner and outer sides and a support member bracket extending from the outer side. The method may also include positioning inner form panels in side-by-side relation and in spaced relation from the inner side of the outer form panels to define an inner form wall. The inner and outer form walls may define a wall space therebetween, and each inner form panel may have opposing inner and outer sides. The method may also include coupling support members over the wall space and to the outer side of the inner form panels and to respective ones of the support member brackets.
