Install Overflow Assembly
From inside the skimmer, screw the threaded
PVC 90 degree elbow into the overflow
spinweld located on the back of the skimmer
box (use included Teflon tape on the threads).
You can rotate the elbow fitting to one side to
control the pond water level. The water level
in the pond and skimmer will be able to rise
until it begins overflowing into the top of the
elbow. The further the elbow is angled down
the lower the maximum pond water level will
be maintained.
From outside the skimmer, screw the male
adapter into the overflow spinweld (use Teflon
tape on the threads). Then glue flexible PVC
hose into the male adapter and run the hose
to wherever you’d like the overflow water to
drain to.
Insert UniSeal Fittings
From outside the skimmer, insert the UniSeal
rubber fittings into the pipe discharge holes
of the skimmer. When you are ready to run
your pipe into your skimmer you will slide
the pipe in through the UniSeal (you may
need to lubricate the UniSeal with soap to
slide the pipe through). If you are only using
one discharge line insert the slip plug into
the unused discharge hole.
Install Automatic Water Fill Assembly
(optional)
If you have purchased the optional Blue Thumb
Automatic Water Fill Assembly for this system
install it now using the instructions provided
with the auto-fill kit. If you are not using the
auto-fill kit, from the outside of the skimmer,
install the plug into the auto-fill spinweld.
