SkimmerMotion
Best surface cleaning attachment for pool owners with suction vacuums.
This passive attachment transforms an existing suction-side cleaner into a dual-action surface skimmer. By capturing debris before it sinks, it significantly reduces the workload on the filtration system and keeps the water surface clear of bugs and small particles.
