How to airfeed comline skimmer?

[jeff127]

Hi I'd like to feed my skimmer with some air from outside to help with my pH. Im not exactly sure which model I have as I bought it 2nd had as a complete setup but it is one of the comlines, maybe 9010?

I'm not sure which hole I would connect the airline to? Would I have to take off the screw tap on the front at the left and feed it through there?


Many thanks,

Jeff.

With our skimmers this is a bit more complicated but it can be done. You would need to connect an airpump outside to pump air into the ozone injection port. You would to use an outdoor rated air pump, Schego and Coralife both offer such pumps for ponds, the Corallife Luft Pump would be ideal. There is no way to connect directly to the venturi, the pump would add the air to the chamber under the cup and the venturi would draw it in.

Thanks Roger.

Where would I find the ozone injection port?


Thanks,
