Skimmer Sieve LOW

If you’re running a gravity system on a swimming pond or biopool, separating surface debris before it reaches your main filter keeps maintenance down and water clearer. The Skimmer Sieve LOW is listed in the SKS 2024 Catalogue within the Bio-Pools & Swimming Ponds section

Positioned alongside the Ultra-Sieve LOW models, it’s designed as part of a gravity-fed sieve pre-filter setup.

What it’s for

• Mechanical pre-filtration from a skimmer line
• Removal of larger floating debris before biological filtration
• Integration into gravity-fed swimming pond systems

In Type 2 and Type 3 swimming pond setups, skimmers and sieve filters form part of the technical maintenance strategy.

Why it matters

Capturing leaves, food and surface waste early:

• Reduces load on bead or biological filters
• Cuts backwashing frequency
• Improves overall water clarity
• Keeps pump chambers cleaner

Mechanical separation at the skimmer stage is one of the simplest ways to protect downstream filtration.

System fit

• Intended for gravity-fed systems
• Installed inline from the skimmer before the main filter
• Suitable for swimming ponds and biopool configurations

Ensure inlet pipework is below water level and matched correctly to your gravity layout.

Technical specifications:

• The sets consist of an UltraSieve Midi or Low including an extra Ø160 mm inlet and a wide-mouth skimmer with a Ø160 mm flange connection.
• The Ø160 mm flexible socket provides a direct and easy connection.
• The skimmer has no basket, so all the debris goes directly to the screen for easy maintenance.
• The Ø160 mm flange with skimmer mouth is available separately to connect two skimmers to one SkimmerSieve.
