 Recommendations:

• In order to maximize circulation, the skimmer should be placed directly across from a waterfall. If you do not have a waterfall, place the skimmer unit along the longest axis. Use the wind to help push the debris toward the skimmer.
• The skimmer should be excavated down to a depth so that the proposed water level in the pond is approximately 2-5cm below the top of the opening of the skimmer.
• The Debris basket inside the skimmer is the first filter stage of the skimmer. The basket will collect leaves, twigs, seeds, and other pond debris. It takes approximately two to three minutes every other week to empty the Debris basket. More frequent changes will be required during autumn and spring because of the quantity of leaves falling off the surrounding trees.
• It’s important that the debris basket is not allowed to become too full. Too much debris can reduce the water flow to the pump.
• The filter mat below the debris basket is the second stage of filtration within the skimmer. The mat is designed to handle any debris that finds its way past the basket. The mat will not need maintenance as frequently as the basket since the basket will remove most debris from the water. Remove and rinse the mat when you notice excessive debris build up on the mat or reduced flow over the waterfall.
