OASE ProfiSkim 100 Pond Surface Skimmer

The OASE ProfiSkim 100 is a low-profile, commercial-grade pond surface skimmer that pulls leaves, pollen, dust, and floating debris off the water surface before they sink to the bottom and decay. Designed for shallow water and regeneration zones between 14" and 21" deep, it cleans up to 860 sq ft of pond surface area — suitable for mid-to-large ornamental ponds, koi ponds, and swim ponds. The stainless-steel 8 mm mesh basket with 73-cubic-inch volume holds a full 3 gallons of debris between cleanings and slides out for easy emptying.

Does it come with a pump?

No — the ProfiSkim 100 is a skimmer only; no pump is included. It's designed to connect to a separate pond pump (pump-fed configuration, up to 5,300 gph) OR drop directly into a gravity-fed filtration system (up to 3,170 gph). A 2" × 4" (DN 110) adapter is included to cover both connection styles. You'll need a 4" rubber coupling (not included) for the outlet connection.

How It Installs

• Gravity-fed setup: Place the skimmer at the pond's edge in a zone 14"-21" deep, then plumb the DN 110 outlet through the pond wall to your gravity-fed filter (e.g., ProfiClear Premium, BioTec ScreenMatic²). Water flows by gravity from skimmer → filter → back via pump.
• Pump-fed setup: Install the skimmer with the included adapter, then connect an external pump drawing water from the skimmer outlet. The pump pushes water through your filter system. Max flow in this configuration: 5,300 gph.
• Recommended pond sizes: mid-to-large ornamental ponds, koi ponds, and swim ponds up to 860 sq ft surface area
