Installation
Insert weir dividers for 16”
weir in the outermost tracks.
Place the High Flow Skimmer in
the hole. Check to make sure the
intended water level meets the
Skimmer 3-1/4” inches below the
top of the neck. Adjust up or down
by adding or removing soil.
Push the weir door hinge tabs
into the notches on the bottom
of the weir dividers, using
thumbs to hold tabs secure. Lay
the door horizontal in the Skim-
mer neck. *DO NOT ATTACH
THE WEIR DOOR TO THE TOP
WEIR DIVIDER NOTCHES.
Verify that the face of the
High Flow Skimmer is flush
with the back wall of the
lined coping shelf. Adjust
placement, if necessary.
Level the unit front to back and
side to side. Make
the front edge ¼” lower
than the back edge. Check
water level once again. The
placement of the High Flow
Skimmer will determine the
depth of your pond before you
proceed.
For stability, fill the High Flow
Skimmer with water then place
lid on top. Add backfill around
the entire unit. Use moist sand
or pea gravel or, if unavailable,
gravel and loose soil (free from
clumps). Hand pack every 3
inches. Do not over compact.
Lightly dampen the backfill
after installation to help set the
backfill.
