Sounds like two sumps? One for skimmer and one for, well, not skimmer?

So you have (2) 1" drain lines going into a sump with just a skimmer in it and from there is a single 1" line that goes into another sump that houses your return pump? Is this correct?

1" returns should have at min 1 1/4" drains IMO.
