Aladdin No-Niche Skimmer

Aladdin No-Niche Skimmer

Easily retrofit your existing pond with the Aladdin No-Niche Skimmer unit. Effectively removes floating leaves from the surface. It has a large basket strainer capacity. The float weir allows varied pond water level.

A rigid or flexible liner can be retrofitted to use this skimmer by adding a bulkhead fitting to the wall or floor of a pond (for proper positioning in pond).

The float ring weir has up to 5-1/2" of vertical travel to allow for water level changes; ie: filter back-flushes, water changes and waves created by waterfall.

Rhino Bottom Drains

Rhino Bottom Drains

Simply the best bottom drains on the market!

Quality materials and superior construction differentiates the Rhino over other Spindrifter type drains. A few of the problems associated with the Spindrifter have been alleviated in the Rhino design including;

  • Thicker flanges and liner attachment ring that will not flex or crack
  • All attachments are machine fitted for extra strength with no need for gap filling
  • All joints are hand welded resulting in more strength than the speed welds used on the Spindrifter
  • 3" height over the horizontal discharge port for more concrete over the horizontal discharge port (the Spindrifter requires a collar to increase the height over the drain)
  • Direct pipe connection into the air bladder (the Spindrifter requires you to snake an air line through the pipe)
  • Rhino air drains contain an air check valve to prevent water entering the air line.
  • Rhino drains are American made and cost less than the Spindrifter!

Rhino Series I drains are vertical discharge in your choice of 3" or 4" pipe. The Rhino II air drain is 4" ported, horizontal discharge.
