IMPORTANT: The instruction manual you are holding includes essential information on the safety measures to be

implemented for installation and start-up. Therefore, the installer as well as the user must read the instructions before

beginning installation and start-up.

Keep this manual for future reference.

To achieve optimum performance of the Skimmer, follow the instructions provided below:

This installation and maintenance manual is for all square inlet and rectangular inlet 15 liter

and 17,5 liter Skimmers for paneled swimming pools,

1. GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS

These Skimmers can be used both in public and private pools.

As a component of the filtering circuit, their main functions are to filter the surface water

ensuring water rotation in the pool, to control the water level of the pool and to connect a pool

floor cleaner.

Skimmers are made by forming rigid ABS and are highly resistant. There are no joins below the

water level as they are manufactured in one part. They are provided with two types of vertical

connections (1 ½" or 2" NPT depending on the version) enabling them to be used according to

requirements.

In order for the Skimmer to clean the surface correctly, before building the pool, it is advisable

to first plan its orientation, in order to place the inlets of the Skimmers against prevailing winds,

bearing in mind the model of the pool and water circulation.

To decide how many skimmers are required in the pool, it is recommended to keep to one

skimmer for every 25 m² of water sheet. At the same time, it should be observed that the

maximum absorption of each of them is approx. 5.000 liters/hour in 15 liter skimmers and

approx. 7.500 liters/hour in 17,5 liter skimmers.

As a general rule, in pools with 1 to 2 Skimmers, they should be placed along the width of the

pool and on the upper part of the deep end. In pools with 3 or more Skimmers, they should be

placed on one of the length sides of the pool.

In all cases, the Skimmers should be placed on the opposite side of the impulse nozzles (Fig.

1).

When the Skimmers are in operation, ensure that the water level is sufficiently high, to avoid the

absorption of air.

There are two pipes connected to the Skimmer, one will be from the suctioning of the pool floor

and the other will go to the pump.

ADJUSTMENT OF THE COVER IN THE 17,5 LITER SKIMMER

One of the new additions to this skimmer is the possibility to adjust the height of the lid and to

tighten it when necessary so that it lies flush with the floor (Fig. 7).

3. ASSEMBLY

The Skimmer should always be placed in the vertical position with the inlet at water level. The

assembly method will depend on the type of pool.
