Safety Overflow
Skimmers of the “i” and “ix” series have a safety overflow and a regulator tube. These are
not glued to the footplate and can be interchanged as required (pictures 3,4 and 5). It must
be ensured that the outlet of the regulator tube points inwards, as if the skimmer is
removed too quickly from the filter chamber, water can be forced over the edge of the filter
sump.
If the safety overflow is not desired, the emergency overflow pipe can be removed and the
opening can be closed with the supplied plug, (picture6).
