Before you order
A pond skimmer collects floating leaves and other debris before they sink. Choose it by surface area, debris load and operating flow, then pair it with biological filtration. Skimmer model numbers are not pond volumes in litres.
- Check the weir width and intended operating water level.
- Choose a pump whose actual flow suits the skimmer and return circuit.
- Leave enough space to lift out the basket and clean the mat.
Does the skimmer include a pump?
No, a standalone skimmer requires a separately selected pump. A professional pond kit includes a specified pump and filter combination.
Does a skimmer replace the biological filter?
No. It performs surface mechanical collection. BioFalls or an appropriately designed biological filter handles the biological side of the system.

How the skimmer helps your pond
Floating leaves and surface debris are easier to collect before they become waterlogged and sink. The skimmer draws that material through its weir into a rigid basket, while the filter mat catches smaller particles. It also gives the separately selected pump a protected, accessible position.
The moulded polyethylene body has a rounded shape for strength and a faux-rock lid to help disguise it at the pond edge. The locking weir can be temporarily closed for maintenance. The 1000 also has an adjustable-height faceplate, allowing the operating water level to be fine-tuned after installation.
Position it for collection and easy servicing
Think about where the prevailing wind pushes leaves and how the waterfall or return moves surface water. Put the skimmer where those flows help carry debris towards it, and check the manufacturer’s water-level marks before the liner is secured.
Allow room to lift the lid and basket without moving rocks or planting. Check the basket more frequently during autumn leaf fall and after storms; a full basket or dirty mat can restrict supply to the pump. Isolate the electrical supply before working on the pump.
Use the matching 1000 service parts when replacing the mat, basket or weir. An alternative-size skimmer is a comparison product, not a source of interchangeable components. Combine surface collection with suitable biological filtration and size the complete circuit for actual pump flow.
