Skimmer pipework

Skimmer

The skimmer is powered by an Aquamax 10,000 pump. The outlet, when finished, will provide two return options. Option one is via the waterfall, option two to a sub-surface return. Ball valves on both mean that flow over the waterfall can be varied depending on weather conditions (from 0-2000gph) with the balance always returning sub-surface.

The skimmer area is in it's own brick chamber to allow a future upgrade to a simple gravity fed filter or brush chamber if desired.
