The Satellite skimmer connects to the existing pond pump circuit and provides additional surface draw capacity without requiring a separate pump.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePrimary vs. Satellite Configuration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn typical multi-skimmer setups, the primary skimmer houses the main pump and handles the majority of water volume. The Satellite skimmer connects to the primary via a distribution line, using the shared pump flow to maintain its own weir draw. This allows pond surface coverage to be expanded at lower cost than adding a second fully independent pump and skimmer system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e6\" Weir Door\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 6-inch weir door provides balanced surface draw proportional to the satellite's secondary flow role. The weir door floats with water level fluctuations, maintaining consistent skim efficiency across the water surface whether the pond is at its normal operating level or slightly lower due to evaporation. Front-access basket design allows routine cleaning without disturbing the pond edge landscape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeir Door Width\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6 inches (15 cm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSecondary (satellite) skimmer unit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePump Configuration\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShares flow with primary skimmer pump\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eApplication\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExtended coverage for larger or irregular ponds\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBasket Access\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFront-loading for easy maintenance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecondary skimmer — expands surface coverage without a second pump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6-inch weir door for consistent, efficient surface debris collection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFloating weir adjusts to water level fluctuations automatically\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePairs with Oasis skimmer for complete dual-point surface management\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Water Gardens","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52698487816511,"sku":"AT-PS03000","price":397.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/8260\/9215\/files\/atlantic-water-gardens-ps03000-satellite-skimmer-6-weir-door_4f29f096-c685-4a1b-873a-f7556c24aa1d.webp?v=1775434619","url":"https:\/\/pondsonline.ca\/products\/atlantic-water-gardens-satellite-skimmer-6-weir-door","provider":"Ponds Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
