Standard Black Wide-mouth In-wall Skimmer (Liner/Concrete)

If leaves and floating debris are constantly collecting along one edge of your pond, a wider skimmer mouth improves surface draw. The Standard Black Wide‑Mouth In‑Wall Skimmer (Liner / Concrete) is designed to increase surface intake, capturing more debris before it sinks.

Suitable for both liner and concrete pond builds, it provides a clean, built‑in finish while improving surface skimming efficiency.

Why choose a wide‑mouth skimmer?

• Wider opening for improved surface draw
• Removes floating debris before it breaks down
• Reduces organic load on filtration
• Helps maintain clearer surface water

By removing waste early, you protect bottom drains, pumps and biological media from unnecessary build‑up.

Suitable for

• Liner ponds (with faceplate and gasket seal)
• Concrete pond installations
• Pump‑fed skimmer lines
• Koi and ornamental pond systems

A wide‑mouth skimmer is particularly useful on larger ponds where wind pushes debris to one side.

Installation Notes

• Install at the correct finished water level
• Ensure watertight sealing on liner installations
• Connect to an appropriately sized pump line
• Provide access for easy basket removal

Maintenance

• Empty the skimmer basket regularly
• Check seals and faceplate screws periodically
• Inspect during heavy leaf fall

A properly installed wide‑mouth in‑wall skimmer improves surface cleaning, reduces maintenance and supports clearer, healthier pond water.
