Dolphin Skimmi 300 Robotic Pool Surface Skimmer | Solar-Assisted | Cable-Free
Your pool has a debris problem. The Skimmi 300 solves it automatically. The Dolphin Skimmi 300 is Maytronics' premium autonomous robotic pool surface skimmer - fully untethered, solar-assisted, and built for larger pools with heavier debris loads. It roams your entire pool surface collecting leaves, insects, pollen, sunscreen film, and surface oils before they sink and become a water chemistry problem.
The Skimmi 300 steps up from the Skimmi 200 with a larger debris basket capacity and enhanced coverage - ideal for pools with heavy leaf fall, large surface areas, or owners who want maximum time between emptying the basket.
Why Surface Cleaning Matters
Most pool debris enters through the surface. Once it sinks, it breaks down, consumes chlorine, clouds the water, and clogs your filter. The Skimmi 300 intercepts debris at the surface before it becomes a problem:
- Leaves and insects collected before they sink and decompose
- Pollen and fine particles removed before they cloud the water
- Sunscreen and body oils skimmed before they create a waterline ring
- Less debris reaching your filter means longer filter runs and less backwashing
- Reduced chlorine consumption - less organic matter to oxidize

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between the Skimmi 200 and Skimmi 300?
A: Both are fully autonomous, cable-free, solar-assisted surface skimmers with MyDolphin app control. The Skimmi 300 has a larger debris basket capacity, making it better suited to pools with heavy leaf fall or large surface areas where you want to empty the basket less frequently. See the comparison table above.
Q: Does the Skimmi 300 have a cable?
A: No - the Skimmi 300 is fully untethered. It operates on a rechargeable battery with solar-assisted charging and roams your pool surface completely freely.
Q: Does it clean the pool floor or walls?
A: No - the Skimmi 300 is a surface skimmer only. For floor, walls, and waterline cleaning, see the Dolphin X25.
Q: Can I run the Skimmi 300 and a floor cleaner at the same time?
A: Yes - the Skimmi 300 operates on the surface while a floor cleaner works below. Running both gives you complete pool coverage simultaneously.
Q: Does it need the pool pump to be running?
A: No - the Skimmi 300 operates independently of your pool pump on its own battery.
Q: How does the solar charging work?
A: The solar panel supplements the battery during operation, extending run time in sunny NZ conditions. The unit also charges via its charging dock when not in use.
