Place Pond Skimmer Skimmster in the pond so it can draw in surface water for collection and periodic emptying.
This pond skimmer is powered by a 2500lph intergrated pond pump and the suction it provides will keep a pond area up to 25sqm free of debris.
This size pond skimmer is ample for a typical sized garden pond.
Fantastic for giving your pond a perfect finish by picking up leaves, pollen and other debris.
The water surface is one of the most important parameters for a biologically well-functioning pond because it is here the gas exchange between water and air takes place.
Pond Skimmer Skimmster can be used all year round when required. Can be used to keep an area of the pond ice-free during winter.
Submerge the unit until the pump chamber and the container are completely flooded.
Ensure that the skimmer flap is in the correct position.
If necessary, anchor the unit to limit its movement radius. To achieve this simply fasten a cord at the lug of the pump chamber and anchor the other end of the cord at the edge or bottom of the pond.
The collection basket will fill with debris so should be regularly emptied.
Remove the basket and foam filter entirely for regular cleaning (use pond water).
Periodically the pump may require cleaning.
Open the pump cover with the bayonet closure and remove the impeller.
Clean all components with clean water and a soft brush.
The skimming action is created using an inbuilt 2500 litre per hour pump which is attached to the pond skimmer. The pump pulls the water and debris through a plastic mesh strainer basket where it can be simply rinsed and removed and then returns the water to your pond.
Very Easy to use and well made Skimmer and very effective, saves the hassle of having to keep going round with a net and collecting dead leaves which i found very annoying, now i can leave the skimmer to just float around collecting up all the debris and rinse it out every couple of weeks, a great luxury - well worth the money just for the time and hassle it saves!!
