Product Information

Full details

The Oase BioSys Skimmer+ is an ideal solution for pond owners looking to maintain pristine water surfaces in ponds up to 50m² by effectively removing floating debris like leaves, pollen, and dust. This high-performance skimmer is designed for permanent, integrated pond-side installation, offering a discreet appearance with its natural rock-look cover and a convenient built-in pump chamber. While it provides excellent surface cleaning and long-term reliability, users should note that it requires a dedicated installation process into the pond edge, making it less suitable for those seeking a portable or temporary skimming solution.

What is the maximum pond size for this skimmer?

Does this unit come with a pump?

Can it be installed in a pond that already has fish?

How do I clean the skimmer?

Simply lift the rock-look cover and pull out the collection basket to dump the debris.

Does it handle large changes in water level?

The unit features an automatic float mechanism that compensates for water level fluctuations of up to 100 mm.

Is the cover durable enough for outdoor use?

Yes, the cover is designed for year-round outdoor use and mimics a natural rock finish to blend into the environment.

Troubleshooting

Skimmer flap is not drawing in debris

Ensure the water level is within the 100 mm operational range and check the pump for sufficient flow.

Water flow into the skimmer is sluggish

Remove the basket and check for blockages, or clean the pump intake screen located within the chamber.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation involves securing the unit into the pond edge during construction or via a retrofit that integrates with your pond liner or wall structure. Ensure the unit is level to allow the float mechanism to operate correctly within its 100 mm range. Compatibility is optimized with Oase Aquamax ECO pumps, which fit into the internal chamber. For care, keep the unit functioning at its peak by clearing the collection basket whenever debris accumulates. During the winter, check the pump manufacturer's manual to decide if the unit needs to be removed from freezing water, and clean the housing annually to ensure the float mechanism remains free of calcification or biological buildup.
