What do you guys/gals think? Will that work? Don't really want to work with melting/burning pvc but will do so if there is no other alternative. Also looking to simplify the water intake part of the skimmer since i can't find any cpvc tubing and fittings in any Rona/Home Depot in Edmonton.
The nozzel you make (and it is easy) jets the water creating foam. You can get those grey pvc fittings in the electricle isle.
