Congratulations on the purchase of the
AquascapePro
Classic Skimmer.
Thank you for choosing an Aquascape PRO-Fit™ System.
Because we understand that your needs are different based
on your preference, application or design, we want to give you
the flexibility of using the different product lines that we offer
within the same project without losing the ease of purchasing
a kit.
Since the PRO-Fit™ System is designed to be used with
different product lines, each PRO-Fit™ System will
come with 2 sets of instructions: one for the skimmer (or
MicroSnorkel™ and MicroCentipede™) and one for the
BIOFALLS
(or Endless Cascades™). During the construction
®
of the pond, you may have to refer to one or the other for the
necessary steps.
Made in U.S.A. for:
Aquascape, Inc.
St. Charles, IL 60174 • Brampton, ON L6T 5V7
