Sorry to hear about the rotten news Carmen...

I've worried a few times with a FULL skimmer cup about spilling on the carpet.. Typically wrap it in a "skimmer only" towel but even then worry about watching my step.. lol

I installed a valve in the skimmer cup, then drain it into a bucket before removel and cleaning.

Well, if I didn't procrastinate and I emptied it when it wasn't overflowing I wouldn't have spilled! Lesson learned!
