 The Heissner Floating Skimmer.
The Heissner Floating Skimmer is designed to remove floating debris, protein foam and dust from the pond's surface.
Many people fail to include a skimmer when constructing their ponds, and so this piece of equipment is ideal for such situations as it can be installed in minutes as an add-on. The pond skimmer will skim, or pull off floating debris, protein foam bubbles and dust from the surface of the pond by suction. The result is a "polished" look. The skimming action is created by attaching a pump to the skimmer line.
The pump pulls the water and debris through a plastic mesh strainer basket and then returns it to your pond. Ideally the water would be returned to the pond via some form of filtration unit or sieve system, independently of your main filtration system. This ensures that no dust or small particles are reintroduced to your pond.
This high quality and affordable unit is supplied with a chain and basket to facilitate the placement of the skimmer in the desired location. The head of the skimmer floats independently of the main body and automatically adjusts to the depth of your pond, meaning that there is no need for further adjustments once the chain is fitted. It is supplied with a stepped hosetail connector to fit any size of flexipipe. |
