Installation Instructions for Tempo Skimmers
Thank you for purchasing the Eco-Series Tempo Skimmer.
You are about to experience the Eco-Series difference in
water feature products, components that are simply designed
for the do-it-yourselfer. The simple design of all Eco-Series
products provides you with reliable, trouble free installation and
maintenance for all your water feature designs.
LOCATION
The first step when installing the Tempo Skimmer in any water garden
is selecting the location of the skimmer. Place the skimmer at the
opposite end of the waterfall for better circulation, sometimes prevailing
winds will dictate the ideal location. The pump connected to the
skimmer must be plugged into a weatherproof GFI outlet. The tubing
attached to the pump will run from the pump to your waterfall.
INSTALLATION ON PLANT SHELF
Mount pump to either side of skimmer with threaded fitting provided.
Plug bottom and opposite end port of skimmer with plugs provided.
Set skimmer and pump on plant shelf, check for correct height. If the
skimmer is too low, you may have to use flat
stones or brick to correct the height. Ideal water
level should be 2/3 up weir window.
Secure skimmer with straps by threading through slots
in back of skimmer and through the anchoring pins that
are set 6" - 12" away from pond edge behind liner.
Place coping stones on anchor pins
and straps. A stone may be used on
the top of the skimmer to conceal it.
