Recommended Hoses

We recommend you purchase one or more Hose Kits with your System.  We sell our Hose Kits to make connection easy and to fit your needs.  But if you have special needs, like setting the System's filter a long way from the skimmer, you will need to purchase a 2" hose to connect the skimmer to the filter, and we recommend you purchase 3 inch pipe (or hoses) to return filtered water back to your pond.

Your ProSkimmer system requires one 2-inch hose for connecting the in-water skimmer to the on-shore filter, and two 3-inch hoses or pipes for returning water from the filter to your pond. Our Hose Kit includes a 25 foot 2 inch hose, and 4 lengths of modular 3 inch pipe with connectors - everything you need to get started.  ProSkim recommends using rigid (suction) hose or ABS or PVC piping for returning water to your pond because the filtered water flows by gravity only and is not under pressure. Flexible return hoses are not recommended for most applications. You may readily find these hoses or pipes at your local supply house or plumbing wholesaler. If you would like to purchase your own hose, or ever need more, here are some national vendors for these parts (all prices and model numbers current as of September 2011 and subject to change):
