Our Pool Skimmer is a lightweight boyant plastic with a standard size pool hose attachment and chlorine tab point. It comes with a removable waste basket which will hold any debris collected from your pool. Our skimmer is designed to float acros the surface of you pool in a linear pattern while being pulled by your under water vacuum. As it passes over the surface of you pool it will collect and debris and dispense your chlorine so you can swim fresh. It can also be used with a stationary vacuum setup in an above ground or inground pool. The skimmer is safe to use when people are in the pool but it could be an obstruction.
