skimmer
The only maintenance on that style
skimmer is to keep the venturi clean :
take the airline hose that's
connected to the venturi and submerge the other
end in a glass of warm
fresh water, the venturi should pull the water into
the skimmer, this will
dissolve any salt creep that's in the valve. This
should be done about
once a month. If it's too late, and water won't get
pulled in, you(might)
have to flush these parts with a weak acid soulution
(outside the tank, of
course) put a couple teaspoons of vinegar in some warm
water, and clean.
In most cases a clogged airway is the problem. Otherwise check the output
of
the pump (with skimmer removed).
HTH,
