Weltico skimmer A800 design anthracite for concrete, liner and shell pools

The Weltico skimmer A800 design anthracite is a wide mouth surface skimmer for residential concrete, liner and prefabricated shell pools. With its anthracite coloured design front and large opening, it combines powerful surface cleaning with a sleek, modern look that fits perfectly into dark copings, grey terraces and contemporary pool designs.

Wide mouth skimmer for concrete, liner and shell pools

The Weltico skimmer A800 design anthracite is engineered for use in concrete, liner and shell pools. Its mounting system and gasket configuration provide a secure, watertight connection in the pool wall, keeping the water level stable and the waterline visually consistent across different construction types.

• Compatible with concrete, liner and prefabricated shell pools.
• A800 width for a wide skimming area along the waterline.
• Designed to deliver a uniform and attractive water level.

Anthracite design front with extra wide opening

The anthracite design faceplate gives the skimmer a refined, contemporary appearance that pairs well with dark liners, stone effect tiles and modern decking. The extra wide A800 mouth increases the capture zone, so more floating debris is directed into the skimmer during each filtration cycle, which is especially beneficial on larger or wind exposed pools.

• Anthracite front for a modern, minimalist waterline finish.
• Extra wide opening to capture leaves, insects and surface contaminants.
• Compatible with matching anthracite design accessories from the Weltico range.

Efficient surface skimming and large debris basket

Inside, the Weltico skimmer A800 design anthracite is shaped to generate a strong surface draw towards the pump. The large capacity skimmer basket collects leaves, insects and other larger debris before it reaches the main filter, helping to protect the pump and extend the service life of the filter media, even under higher flow conditions.

• High skimming performance for clear, clean surface water.
• Large removable basket for longer intervals between emptying.
• Supports stable hydraulic conditions and reliable pump priming.

Hydraulic connections and installation

The Weltico skimmer A800 design anthracite is equipped with bottom connections sized for typical residential pool hydraulics. It can be used in new pool projects or as a replacement A800 skimmer during renovation, provided the wall opening and pipework are compatible with the A800 design specifications.

• Bottom suction outlet connection to the filtration line.
• Options for overflow or equalisation connections depending on configuration.
• Installation by a qualified pool builder is recommended for correct sealing and water level.

Correct placement with respect to prevailing winds and return inlets ensures that floating debris is naturally guided towards the wide A800 mouth, maximising surface cleaning efficiency during normal filtration cycles.

Maintenance and long term performance

Routine maintenance of the Weltico skimmer A800 design anthracite consists mainly of checking and emptying the basket and inspecting gaskets and fixings during periodic service. The large basket volume reduces the risk of rapid clogging, while the dark anthracite front makes it easy to see deposits at the waterline.

• Basket accessible from deck level for quick removal and cleaning.
• Large debris basket capacity reduces emptying frequency.
• Can be combined with pre filter bags to further protect the main filter.

With correct installation and regular maintenance, the skimmer delivers long term, reliable surface skimming and an anthracite toned finish at the waterline that complements contemporary, design led pool environments.
