My skimmer, from bottom of box to top of collection cup is 4 feet tall. So 48" and my beckett sit's just below my collection cup. The 2" pvc tube comming down from the beckett is about 30" tall, takes a 90deg bend for another 12", takes another 90deg bend up into the main tube and through another 6" of pipe.
It works
