However , often I see that water is throttling in the silicone pipe that allows air to be injected into the skimmer . It's like throttling !!
I found that the more I open the water wedge and drop my water line , the water throttling is reduced in the air pipe .
But now the water line is quite low !! Like a little above half way in the skimmer .

Any idea ?

Regards,

I would suggest raising the water level in the sump slightly (about 1/4" at most to start). A little adjustment can make a big difference so keep that in mind when making adjustments. That will get the level up higher in the skimmer without having to close the wedge pipe as much. The open the nozzle a tad bit more.
