see i didnt know that you were using putty either. That is going to explain on why its over flowing too. open the skimmer full on the water level run it as low in the chamber as you can. and open the volute to about 4-5 turns out this is goign to allow the skimmer to run super dry and pull the trace elements out of the water from the putty.
