Hi
Can anyone give me a little technical info regarding air into a skimmer? I see a few skimmers (cheapies) suck air from pump's OUTLET pipe, where as skimmers like the TS series do it from the pump's INTAKE, which I feel is obviously better. Your thoughts?
Secondly, is it better to have the air be sucked by a thicker air pipe, or is the standard air piping best?
I have thought about it and to me it is better to go thicker, as you allow more air to enter, however, would this not lead to larger bubbles out the skimmer head?
