Tiredof bendingdowntoclean out the skimmer basket?

The Skimmie of Alpharetta, Georgia offers The Skimmie skimmer net and hook. No more bending down or reaching your hand into the unknown contents of the skimmer basket.

The hook will lift the skimmer lid and remove the skimmer basket. Once the basket is out, use the skimmer net to remove any remaining debris from the skimmer to prevent debris from entering the filtration system. The Skimmie is 53” long from hook to net.

Included are two 3×6 inch universal skimmer basket handles that will attach to most skimmer baskets. Simply secure the handle by screwing the two screws through the skimmer basket and into the handle. You now have a secure center point of gravity to remove the skimmer basket and debris.

For more information contact The Skimmie, 1240 Lee St. Alpharetta, GA 30004. Phone 404-454-1904. Online at www.theskimmie.com.
