The Kockney Koi Wide Mouth Surface Skimmer is ideal for pond owners with concrete or liner installations who want to automate surface debris management and improve water clarity. By continuously removing floating leaves, foam, and dust before they sink, this skimmer significantly reduces bottom sludge buildup and lightens your long-term maintenance load. While it offers superior performance and a discreet aesthetic, it requires professional installation within the pond wall and must be connected to an external pump and filtration system to operate effectively.

Yes, provided the pump is compatible with the piping required for the skimmer and is powerful enough to maintain a surface pull.
It depends on the amount of debris, but checking it once a week is recommended, increasing frequency during autumn.
It can be used in a raised pond provided the structure is concrete or lined and the skimmer is positioned correctly at the waterline.
The design includes a basket that protects fish from being pulled into the pump, provided the weir flap is functioning correctly.
The unit is designed for permanent installation; you will need to source standard plumbing fittings appropriate for your pump setup.
Check if the water level has dropped below the skimmer intake or if the collection basket is full.
Clear any trapped twigs or debris around the hinge of the flap to ensure it floats freely.
Inspect the pump and connecting hoses for blockages, and ensure the skimmer basket is clear of compacted debris.
Installation requires careful planning as the unit must be integrated into the pond wall at the correct water level. For liner ponds, ensure a watertight seal is maintained around the faceplate. Once installed, connect the unit to your pump intake using appropriate diameter piping. Regular care involves lifting the faceplate or top access cover to empty the debris basket. Periodically inspect the flap door (weir) to ensure it moves freely and is not obstructed by debris, as this flap is essential for maintaining the skimming action.
