A novel skimmer port flow diverter for use with swimming pools having a dual port skimmer apparatus includes an inverted U-shaped conduit having at each lower end of a pair of vertically downwardly disposed legs thereof a tapered elastomeric bushing insertable into suction and main-drain ports, respectively, at the bottom of a skimmer box to thus enable substantially all of the water contained in a swimming pool basin to be drawn out at the maximum flow rate of which an existing swimming pool circulation and filtration pump is capable. A swimming pool fire suppression system includes the novel skimmer port flow diverter temporarily inserted into the main-drain and suction inlet ports of a swimming pool skimmer, and a three-port, two-way selector valve having an inlet port connected to the discharge port of the swimming pool pump, a first outlet port connected to the inlet port of a pool filter, a second outlet port connected to a fire hose, and a valve control lever for directing water discharged from the pump alternatively to the filter and the fire hose.
