FAQs

What is the correct pump flow rate?

The Superfish Pond Skimmer requires a pond pump with a flow rate between 8,000 L/h and 16,000 L/h.

How often should I clean the collection basket?

Clean the collection basket regularly, ideally when it becomes visibly full or is reducing the skimmer's effectiveness. Frequency depends on debris levels.

Is a pump and hose included?

No, the pond pump and pond hose are required but not included. They must be purchased separately.

How do I adjust the skimmer's height?

The skimmer has adjustable height settings to accommodate different water depths. Refer to the product specifications for the height range.

What is the purpose of the tiltable base?

The tiltable base (7.5° ) helps to level the skimmer on uneven pond floors, ensuring optimal positioning for debris collection.

What size pond is this skimmer suitable for?

The Superfish Pond Skimmer is suitable for pond surfaces up to 40m².

Troubleshooting

Skimmer is not collecting debris.

Check the pump is running, the hose connections are secure, and the collection basket isn't full or blocked. Also, ensure the skimmer is positioned correctly in the pond.

Reduced water flow through the skimmer.

Clean the collection basket and check for any obstructions in the hose or skimmer housing. Inspect the pump for clogs or reduced performance.

Skimmer is unstable or tilting.

Ensure the base is correctly positioned and adjusted to the pond floor. Check for any debris preventing the skimmer from sitting level.
