Fountain Wall Skimmers

Filtrific Fountain Systems rely on three different return devices or "skimmers". Skimmers “skim” water and debris from the surface of the fountain which is then returned to Filtrific Filter Tank for filtration and to be re-pumped back to the fountain.

Filtrific S5 In-Wall Skimmer

The S5 In-Wall Skimmer is designed for use with fountains where the water level is above the elevation of the Filter Tank’s Intake Port. The wall skimmer is designed to be placed in a 8” or wider concrete wall and includes a removable faceplate.

Filtrific S6 In-Wall Skimmer

The Filtrific S6 In-Wall Skimmer is designed to be used in installations where the fountain edge is at the same height as the Filter Tank. The S6 is designed to be placed in a 8” or wider cement wall and provides a removable faceplate.

Bottom-Draw

By installing a bottom draw on a fountain, debris is pulled from the bottom of the water feature in conjunction with the surface, ultimately resulting in a cleaner water feature.

BDFC-4 Bottom Draw Flow Cap

Flow Cap

Max GPM: 80
Connection: 4” IPS plastic or
metal pipe
Material: 304 stainless steel

Large Flows

The adjustable height design allows the intake to accommodate large or small flows

Pipe Connection

Secures to the end of a 4” bottom draw pipe

Water is drawn from the bottom of the fountain to replace the water being pumped out of the Filter Tank. Submerged debris is then collected in the Filter Basket within the Filter Tank or in the Remote Filter Skimmer Basket.

Discharge Devices

As an optional accessory to a Filtrific Fountain System, the Jet Flow Cap can either provide an underwater bubble effect or a surface spray effect.

Jet Flow-Cap: JFC-2H

Jet Flow-Cap: JFC-2HV

Side Jetting Action

The Jet Flow Cap sweeps submerged debris to a surface skimmer or a bottom draw skimmer.

Note: Use with a spring check valve to prevent water from siphoning back into the Filter Tank if the circulation pump is turned off.
