Skimmer Performer
Dear Customer,
we thank You for choosing this quality product. Please read the following instructions
very carefully for best understanding of the characteristics of this new, innovative product.
Hydor' s new skimmer range is equipped with a special drainage system that can regulate
the level in the chamber without changing the quantity of water that is being treated. This
range also comes with an air regulation system that controls the air input allowing the end-
user to adjust the skimmer to specific personal needs.
NB: the skimmer may present some residue from water as 100% of the production is inspected and tested
in order to guarantee Hydor' s high quality standards.
