Description
Skimmer with an extended opening
The model is designed for pools with a liner (foil) or glass-ceramic lining. The body is made of high-quality ABS treated against UV radiation and withstands pool chemicals and outdoor weather conditions. The wide opening catches floating leaves, insects and other debris from a larger part of the surface while keeping a stylish and unobtrusive look.

How it works
The skimmer is built into the pool wall, with about two thirds of it below the water level. It draws in the surface layer and carries it to the filtration, while larger debris stays in the strainer basket.
What the set includes
All parts of the skimmer: body, upper rectangular cover, seals and other elements.
Tips
- Empty the basket regularly – this keeps the suction strong and protects the pump from clogging.
- Before ordering, confirm the connection size of your pipe.
- The skimmer is also useful when renovating an old system.
