I would suggest a normally open one that closes on rise one that way, when you remove your lid and switch for cleaning, it doesn't shut the skimmer down. .

Or get this universal float skimmer float switch kit that can be rotated so that the barrel of the float is further away from the side of the cup. You can raise it or lower it to adjust the height and rotate it to move the float closer or further from the side of the cup. It's designed to avoid that issue you are having and includes the Madison float switch.

That float seems like what I am looking for--thanks so much!
