Hello All,
New here! I've been scouring the internet for weeks now in search of an answer/part for my 2005 Jacuzzi J230.
I recently inherited a Jacuzzi J230 from a coworker and have had great luck since moving the hot tub to my home. I believe I am missing the skim shield. The hot tub I have has the lily pad skimmer, but neither I or the prior owner can seem to find the skim shield. It may have been lost in the move...
I've been looking for a skim shield to fit my unit, but all I can find online is a "boxy" shield when my unit should have a more rounded shield. I have been operating my unit without the shield, but I have to keep a floating chlorinator in the middle of the lily pad to keep from having air suck through the pump. Does anyone have advise on where I can locate the appropriate skim shield?

Above is the only shield I have found so far. To give a better idea, the bottom of the shield on my hot tub should be rounded, not so square.

The J 230 does not have a skimmer shield:
