OK, I failed miserably
Just put the new skimmer online and I ran out of towels , again
The extra resistance from having the sump hooked up made my life miserable. Water came out of the ouptut vent....... So I hooked up a seperate line to the sump and now my durso/drain setup is inconsistent. The water level in my overflow is going up and down etc...
Need to figure out how to get a constant drain, it is affecting the water level in the skimmer??
