Oase Swim Skim Skimmer 25

Product Information

The integrated “green” as Oase calls it function, brings up debris from the bottom of the pond by swirling the water at 600L/hr. This causes the light organic matter to come up to the surface of the water where it’s pulled in by the skimmer in the usual way. Additionally, the debris still on the surface of the pond is captured. This skimmer does tend to float around a bit so anchoring it to one place (like I would do with the smaller 25 version, away from your water plants) is what I would do. The result is clearly improved water quality and viewing depth through direct suction removal of pollutants on the surface The Oase Swim Skim Skimmer 25 is, for me, one of the best pond skimmers for small to medium-sized ponds. It’s a complete unit because it comes with a built-in pump so it’s easy to set up with nothing else needed.

Excluding postcodes below inScottish Highlands and islands, Isle of Man, Channel Islands and Isle of Scilly: (Currently we do not deliver to Northern Ireland) This is a simple (and one of the more affordable) model that uses a plastic mesh screen to remove debris from the water. Simply remove the basket, empty it and then rinse it to keep the skimmer running well. The hose attachment for this unit comes with three adapters of different sizes – 25/32/38mm. You’re not limited to having a particular size of hose in your system. Pros Yes, pond skimmers need a pump to draw the water into them and to push it away after it’s cleaned. Self-contained skimmers come with the pump already built into them. Others require a separate pump. Each SwimSkim 25 harvests floating debris from up to 25m2 of pond surface area. Built in aeration provides 300 litres of air per hour. Oase SwimSkim pond skimmer are highly beneficial for maintaining good water quality and promote the well-being of fish and wildlife. Multiple units can be installed around larger ponds to keep larger surfaces clear and aerated. The size of the collection basket determines how large a piece of debris the skimmer collects. Smaller baskets may not handle large fallen autumn leaves very well. Plus the capacity of the basket (along with how much debris falls on your pond) is tied to how often you need to empty out the collected debris. If your pond is quite full of organic material and the collection basket is small, this may be a daily task.This Oase 50 pond skimmer model also injects oxygen into the water. This helps to create a healthy environment for your plants. And you don’t need to worry if the water level changes in your pond, especially in the summer. This skimmer automatically adjusts to that and carries on working to keep your pond clean. Pros This powerful pond skimmer from Oase removes leaves and other debris from the surface of your pond. If these are not removed, they can rot down and cause sludge and other problems. The Oase Biosys Skimmer Plus is installed at the side of the pond which makes it easy to access for cleaning and maintenance. It comes with a large 12 litre collection basket that collects the debris, and is easy to remove. Whichever option you choose, pay close attention to the flow rate of the pump that the manufacturer recommends. If the flow rate of your pump is not fast enough (it’s the L/hr number associated with the pump), the skimmer won’t work efficiently. The skimmer’s collection basket The Oase Swimskim 25 has its own built in pump which causes a suction so that fallen leaves and pond debris are drawn towards its collection basket, the collection chamber can then easily be removed by hand, and the user can discard with its unwanted contents. By removing leaves and other undesirable pollutants, not only will the pond look cleaner, it should also aid the water quality.

Customers Reviews

Due to the swim skim being a self floating device, it will conveniently adapt to any changes in pond depth. With the SwimSkim 25 the integrated whirlpool function, if desired, whirls up deposits on the floor of the pond and feeds them to the pump. Both models additionally enrich the water with vital oxygen and thus improve the water quality. Many pond skimmers advertise a function that injects extra oxygen into your pond water. This increases the health of the ecological system of the pond. It also keeps water moving in the winter to help avoid ice build-up.

This model does come with a long 10m power cable so it has plenty of reach to be able to connect it up to a power source. The skimmer does move around in the water at the end of the cable, as already mentioned, so I would consider tying it against the wall in a permanent position. Pros
