These floor tiles are freaking awesome. Best design choice we made I think lol.

Finally had a spare moment to take the skimmer apart and I found the culprit:
A big ol crack down the side of the intake manifold of the pump. The explains the air escaping from the pump, and I assume probably some of the noise. I'm going to see about getting it replaced |

How old was that piece?

skimmer is brand new, and as far as I can tell so is the pump. I'm not sure when it was actually manufactured though. I've only had it running for a week

I've e-mailed that photo to Deltec USA spare parts and the Canadian distributor for Deltec. Hopefully should be able to get a new piece in short order.
In the meantime, the skimmer still works, just not optimally. |

on the upside....
My ammonia is down to 0.5ppm. Nitrite is still off the freaking charts, but the first hump of the cycle is over |

Sadly, though Deltec is an excellent product, the Canadian Distributor could not be more painful to deal with. Best of luck for you to get an answer back anytime in the near future.
