Oase ProfiSkim Wall Skimmer Extension

Oase Aqua Skim 40

The OASE AquaSkim 40 keeps the water surface of up to 40 m² clean and is an ideal addition to the AquaMax Eco Premium models 8000-16000 and Twin 20/30000. The skimmer basket has a diameter of 170 mm. It can be easily adapted to the pond depth thanks to the two-part telescopic tube, which is infinitely height-adjustable from 300 to 800 mm. The skimmer compensates for water level differences of up to 120 mm. The filter basket volume is 1.4 l. The skimmer lets through dirt particles up to 10 mm in size. Thanks to the 350 mm base, the AquaSkim 40 can be fixed to the pond floor with stones that are particularly stable. The small pipe diameter of 80 mm also ensures less air content and thus prevents the skimmer, which has a connection with a universal stepped hose nozzle from ¾ “to 1½”.

Characteristics:

• The result is clearly improved water quality and viewing depth through direct suction removal of pollutants on the surface
• Base with large surface receptacle shell for rocks as ballast
• AquaSkim 20 – ideal for use on the AquaMax Eco Premium 4000-8000
• AquaSkim Gravity with high quality DN 160 / 110 adapter for easy integration in DN 110 line systems
• Easy maintenance with easily accessible coarse debris basket
• Debris basket can also be taken out from a distance via grip hooks
• Ideal combination with AquaMax Eco Premium filter and watercourse pumps
• Powerful suction cleaning of pond surfaces up to 40 m²

Certikin Wide Mouth Adaptor (Liner)

The Certikin wide mouth adaptor incorporates a front bezel eliminating the need for expensive finishing work and provides an effective “funnel” through to the skimmer.

The Certikin wide mouth adaptor is designed for installation in prefabricated, block and liner, or GRP Ponds. It is supplied complete with all the necessary gaskets and screws.

Standard Black surface skimmer (In-Wall concrete or liner)

Pond Skimmers are a very important and fundamental part of any pond construction, yet are so often overlooked by some pond builders or designers.

Pond Skimmers are designed to remove floating debris, foam bubbles and dust from your pond’s water surface by suction, giving the water a polished look. These easy to install and relatively economical devices can save hours in cleaning and maintenance and really can improve the overall water quality of your pond.

A Standard Black Surface Skimmer can make all the difference between enjoying a pond and beginning to resent it. A properly functioning skimmer will collect leaves and anything else that lands on the surface of your pond and collect it into a basket, where it can be easily disposed of. Without a pond skimmer you are sentenced to a life of continually having to clean and remove debris from the pond’s surface. In addition, pond skimmers will remove all this debris before it has a chance to sink and degrade, help to improve the general water quality and aid in the prevention of extra strain being placed on our filtration systems.

Even if you were considering building a pond indoors you should still install a skimmer because in addition to leaves, they skim off the “Dissolved Organic Compounds” (DOC). Dissolved Organic Compounds will form in any pond, and if not removed will cause an unsightly film and bubbles on the water’s surface. Considering the little amount they cost, the benefits are tremendous.

The Standard Black Surface Skimmer is an important piece of equipment for any pond, but more essentially for the Koi Pond and it is more often forgotten about at the time of constructing the pond: most koi keepers wish they had put one in at the time of construction.

If you are going to build a new Koi pond then please don’t forget to fit one of these surface skimmers, on larger ponds two or more may be needed and these are built into the walls of the pond at the time of construction.
