SkimDoctor 2.0 for Above Ground Pools

Description

This model is designed ONLY for small above ground skimmers similar in size to a coffee filter, such as the Hayward SP1091 Never touch gunk again and skim your pool up to three times faster. SkimDoctor 2.0 uses several physics principles to increase surface water velocity. First, the slots in the inner tube of SkimDoctor 2.0 speeds up the flow of surface water, in your skimmer. By forcing water to flow through SkimDoctor’s narrow slots, SkimDoctor increases the top surface speed. In more technical terms, when water moves from a wider channel to a narrow channel, the volume of the water that moves a given distance in a given time period does not change, however, the speed of the water increases. This phenomenon is called the Bernoulli principle and explains why water flows quickly in white water rapids when rocks narrow the width of the water channel. In addition, the SkimDoctor 2.0 tube itself forces water to flow around the tube in two directions narrowing the water channel, and creating a four-fold Bernoulli effect. Most all debris enters through the top surface of the water. Because SkimDoctor increases surface water speed, debris is drawn more quickly into your basket, which may allow you to run your pump less. It’s important to remember that water velocity and energy savings are only some of the benefits. SkimDoctor also prevents you from having to put your hand through all the gunk to remove the basket. SkimDoctor also increases the storage capacity of your basket. (It is still a good idea to empty your pool basket frequently). US Patent Numbers: 8,864,986 & 8,721,881 with other patents pending. Works well with variable speed and low flow pumps. Fits Small Above-Ground Skimmer Baskets. BASKET IS NOT INCLUDED. "Hey, it works in my pool; it's going to work in your pool too!" Inventor Ron
