I am considering extending my skimmer intake to the outside. Probably use a 5/8" hose with some sort of screen on the end (to prevent spiders and etc) which I would taper down to the 1/4". I figured go bigger outside so the skimmer has less resistance pulling air. Does anyone have a similar set-up and have experienced slightly better constant PH? What about skimmer production? Will the skimmer production be slightly less efficient since it is working hard pulling air from 25' of line?
Thanks
