​6 Hidden Features of the Axiom Skimmer

Posted by Dan F. on Jan 22nd 2018

The Axiom skimmer provides the pond installer with an easy to install and versatile pond skimmer at an excellent value. Creating and maintaining water gardens is made significantly easier with the installation of an Axiom pond skimmer.

Axiom skimmers have 6 hidden features that set it apart from other pond skimmers.

1. Fast and secure liner attachment.

Most pond skimmers require multiple steps to ensure the liner hole is cut and lined up properly to finish pond liner attachment. With the Axiom skimmer the faceplace is secured to the unit first and then the liner hole is cut out. No additional realignment of liner and faceplate is necessary.

2. Integrated UV option.

The Axiom skimmer model (PSA5000) can be fitted with an integrated UV option. This UV option is installed inside the skimmer to provide a convenient way of implementing copper-free algae control. No plumbing required.

3. Extended inlet flange.

Concealing the inlet of the pond skimmer at the pond edge is made easier with the extended flange. Rocks can be stacked along and on top of the flange to create a more natural looking connection at the pond edge.

BONUS: Axiom skimmers are compatible with EasyPro’s patented 24″ extension tubes. This allows the skimmer to be set back as far as desired from the pond edge for creating natural looking ponds.

4. Adjustable overflow.

Axiom skimmers come with pre-installed “spinweld” fittings that creates a sealed skimmer box. This allows the overflow to be adjustable with an elbow fitting. Ponds with extensive stream systems can use this feature for accommodating the “water in transition” these systems must account for.

5. All-in-One option.

The All-in-One Axiom skimmer and filter combo is an excellent way to provide filtration without the need for a typical waterfall filter box. With the skimmers biological media chamber filled with EasyPro ultimate tube media, this Axiom unit can provide biological filtration for ponds up to 4000 gallons.

6. Compatible with submersible or external pumps.

Submersible or external style pumps can be used with the Axiom skimmers. The large pump chamber allows for us of a single or dual submersible pump. External pumps can be used in a suction lift or a flooded suction configuration
