I have a CS6-1 (I think? had it about 3 years, it's 20 inches tall and has Sedra 5000 pump) in my sump. I have been frustrated by the tiny amount of skimmate it's producing, so I found this thread.
I found the gate valve modification info and went off to the hardware store. I couldn't find a pvc gate valve, so I just bought and assembled the other parts. The modification is now on my skimmer, minus gate valve. Anyone else try this? How important is the valve?
Many thanks for any input!
