      Assuming you were referring to adding a cleaning system to a vanishing edge catch basin, I have done the following. Pitch the basin floor toward the center with at least a 1 in 7 floor slope angle. Install an "infloor" cleaning system, not shared in any way with the pool. It's own valve, heads, pump, filter, and drains with NO plumbing systems shared. Install your debris capture drains at the lowest point. Use no more than a 5' radius for the head placements.

      It is also possible to install a skimmer, BUT IT MUST be a "venturi" type skimmer, must be installed at the "operational" water level of the catch basin, WILL require fabrication to extend and water proof the lid and area above the skimmer, and disclose to the customer that the skimmer by design will be under water and non functional when the basin is not in "operational" mode.

      The venturi style skimmer prevents loss of prime in the event the water level drops below the skimmer. Requires extreme care in installation to prevent leaks.

      Have done many of these and they work well.

      Take care, Rex
