Are you able to put a piece of foam on the outlet of your skimmer?

Check the air intake hose. I had some bubbles from my skimmer and my intake was partially plugged. Cleaned it up and everything was fine.

That is what most manufactures do to cure there problems. Cheap and easy fix. Just make sure to clean the foam as part of regular maintience.
