Know before you buy
No, this replacement mat is specifically engineered for the Atlantic PS15000 skimmer and the MK15000 Matala Mat Kit. It is not designed to fit other skimmer models.
Matala is a high-quality, rigid synthetic media that excels at trapping debris while maintaining excellent water flow. Its durable structure resists clogging and is much easier to clean and reuse than standard foam filters.
You should check the mat regularly, especially during seasons with heavy leaf fall. If the mat is heavily soiled and no longer allows water to pass through freely, it should be rinsed; replace it only when the material begins to degrade or lose its structural integrity.
No tools are required. The mat is designed for a simple drop-in installation, allowing you to easily swap out your old filter during routine pond maintenance.
This mat acts as a primary pre-filter to protect your pump from large debris, but it is not a complete filtration system. It should be used in conjunction with your biological and mechanical pond filters to maintain optimal water clarity.
