Skimmer with extended neck VA 17,5 l , 215x160 mm for foil

Product detailed description

A quality skimmer with an extended neck is suitable where we need the skimmer body to start behind the paving at the edge of the pool. Skimmer from Spain for robust in-ground pools made of plastic, lost formwork, foil and fibreglass.

Thanks to the greater depth of the skimmer it is ideal for pools with lost formwork, the skimmer body without the neck already comes out behind the pool and there is no need to interfere with the pool skeleton.

The skimmer is made of high quality plastic and the screws have brass counter-nuts that will resist corrosion for years and there is no cracking of the plastic.

For flow rates up to 16m3/h.

Made of ABS plastic with UV stabilisation.

Connecting the skimmer to the filtration system

Down the skimmer has two outlets, you choose one and connect it with a 2" nipple or screw. The other one is plugged with the included stopper with seal.Then you connect the 50mm pipe and proceed to filtration.

For complicated installations, the skimmer also has a 63mm diameter outlet down the side for gluing. Here, however, the outlet needs to be peeled out of the plastic.

Attaching the skimmer to the pool wall

On the lost formwork you will only concrete the neck, the skimmer body will stick out behind the pool. The larger hole (45-50cm wide, 40cm high) should be omitted and the skimmer concreted. It is recommended to tape the threads before concreting to prevent mess from getting in. Concrete the skimmer after it has been removed - without gaskets, flanges, etc.

Skimmer Installation - Instructions

The skimmer comes to be placed in the top of the pool, near the filtration. Always install the skimmer, if you can, opposite the return nozzle to ensure circulation of the water. The skimmer collects debris from the pool surface, so it is imperative that it is placed at the top, the level is then about half or top third of the skimmer.
