Your H&S Skimmer Experience


I am thinking about getting an H&S skimmer for my 210. Anyone have comments that they would like to share?

H&S is a dual bekett skimmer, correct?

If so I know someone who has one and really, really loves it. Would not trade it for the world. But remember with a beckett skimmer the feed pump you use is very important, you want something pressure rated like an Iwkia, and high GPH do drive both becketts.

If this is the skimmer I am thinking of,
