Built from rigid PVC, a tapered clip and sturdy mounting hardware, the system secures to pool rails, deck surfaces or a movable base. The kit ships with the clip, PVC tube and tee, a plastic pipe clamp, and all required mounting hardware; the leaf net itself is not included, allowing you to use your preferred deep leaf rake.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the Leaf Bone kit attach to my pool?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is adaptable: for above-ground pools the clamp mounts to the top rail using the included stainless hardware; for in-ground pools you can secure the kit to a wooden movable base with the provided wood screws. The PVC tee and pipe clamp create a rigid vertical support so the clip holds the net exactly at the waterline.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAbove-ground: drill two 3\/16\" holes and use stainless screws, washers, and nuts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIn-ground: attach to a wooden base using included wood screws.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMovable-base option allows repositioning for best flow and capture.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill my existing leaf net fit the LEAF BONE clip?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe clip accepts most standard leaf rake handles because its interior is tapered to grip differently sized shafts. Since the net is not part of the kit, you can pair the mount with the deep leaf rake you already own or choose a larger net for heavy fall cleanup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTapered interior provides a tight hold on various handle diameters.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with most long-handled leaf rake nets (net not included).\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNet height can be adjusted while clamped to fine-tune skimming depth.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I position and adjust the skimmer for best performance?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe system was designed for easy on-the-fly adjustments: the PVC tube slides through the clamp to change reach, the clip rotates and moves up or down the tee, and the net can be raised or lowered in the clip. This range of adjustments helps you place the net where surface flow concentrates leaves for maximum capture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePVC tube slides in the clamp to extend reach or retract for storage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClip rotates on the PVC tee to angle the net with current flow.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVertical net adjustment keeps the mesh at the optimal waterline depth.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat durability and maintenance should I expect?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLEAF BONE uses durable plastic and stainless hardware to resist outdoor exposure and maintain a firm hold under load. Routine rinsing and an occasional inspection of clamps and fasteners will keep the system working season after season without damaging pool equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel screws and corrosion-resistant components included.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRigid mounting minimizes sagging when nets are full of wet leaves.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSimple cleaning—flush with fresh water and check fasteners periodically.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\nWho is this for?\n\nIf you own a residential above-ground or in-ground pool and want an affordable, low-effort way to intercept floating leaves before they sink or clog filtration skimmers, the LEAF BONE kit is a practical solution. It suits homeowners who prefer using their preferred deep leaf rake net (not included), people who want a hands-free skimming option for long periods, and those who value a product that can be repositioned to follow changing wind and water flow. The kit is also a good match for backyard maintenance pros and pool service techs who need a dependable, lightweight mounting system that reduces time spent manually skimming and lowers the chance of skimmer-basket blockages.\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Does the kit include a leaf net?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: No, the kit does not include a net; it holds most standard leaf rake nets by gripping the handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Can I use the kit on both above-ground and in-ground pools?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Yes.
