CSC150 Skimmer: My opinion

I run my original SK181 with the air intake wide open for maximum fresh air (with the screw still installed and a hose out the window from the silencer)
I have my depth at 8-7/8", and run my gate between 9-1/2 and 10 turns (depending on foam production)

Due to the pump and the volute being quite different the settings would be completely different from the Eden pump version. The Sicce pulls more air and produces finer bubbles being one of the major differences

Good to know
I look forward to hearing from you when the retro kits arrive

I have this skimmer running in 7" of water. The air is almost wide open, I don't know how many turns my water valve is, but I'd say basically half way. I have lots of room for adjustment.

Thanks for the great product as always Aqua-Digital. Colby and Gustavo at Bayside are great to deal with. I get my New-Era stuff, Prodibio, and now CSC stuff from them!

And Greg, I think a retro kit sounds like a great idea! I think they should sell as many retro kits as skimmers with the popularity of the Skimz.
