The weir plate is the adjustable panel inside the skimmer that sets the water level at which surface debris enters the skimmer chamber. A cracked or warped weir plate prevents proper adjustment, either causing the skimmer to pull water too aggressively or failing to skim the surface at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSet the Right Surface Pull for Effective Debris Collection\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe weir operates by maintaining a precise elevation difference between the pond water surface and the skimmer intake, which creates the surface current that sweeps floating debris through the weir opening. A damaged weir plate distorts this relationship. The Signature Series 6.0 weir plate is sized specifically for the 6.0 skimmer's wider opening and higher flow capacity; it is not interchangeable with the weir plates from smaller Signature Series models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatible With\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAquascape Signature Series 6.0 pond skimmer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUV-stable thermoplastic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFunction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSets pond water level and controls surface debris entry into skimmer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAdjustment\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlide and lock at desired water level; secured by thumb screws\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOpen the skimmer lid and remove the existing damaged weir plate by unscrewing the thumb screws and sliding the plate free from the adjustment slot. Insert the new weir plate into the slot at the approximate desired water level. Fill the pond to within 5 cm (2 in) of the intended finished water level, then adjust the weir plate up or down until the skimmer draws a gentle, steady surface current without creating a strong vortex at the intake opening. Lock in position with the thumb screws.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIdeal for Signature Series 6.0 skimmer owners with cracked, warped, or broken weir plates, and for restoring correct surface-level skimming after a weir plate is damaged during winter freeze-over.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aquascape","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52698424082751,"sku":"AQ-29529","price":36.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/8260\/9215\/files\/aquascape-replacement-parts-default-title-aquascape-signature-series-6-0-pond-skimmer-weir-plate-43287389438271.webp?v=1776379647","url":"https:\/\/gardenpondusa.com\/products\/aquascape-signature-series-60-pond-skimmer-weir-plate","provider":"Ponds Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
