Which would be a better skimmer

E.T.S.S 800 OR H&S 200 1260

ETSS = classic, but outdated energy hog that required constant tuning and cleaning of the downdraft tubes.

H&S = 1/4 the wattage (est), more output, current design that is more competitive.

I'm personally not a big downdraft fan. I would take an H&S over an ETSS personally any day of the week.

I am currently using an ETSS, model #700. I do not think this model is available now. It has develops many small leaks in the past. Thinking of replacing if there is another leak. Any suggestion?
