Does anyone have spare injectors for this skimmer? Or know where I could find one?? I just bought one and broke the injector.... The company literally went out of business last month

If you did not completely shatter it you should be able to superglue it. I remember seeing a video on youtube a while back on a diy injector nozzle. I actually went to their warehouse in San Diego last year to get a nozzle and it seemed the owner disnt care about his business as the phone rang non stop and he had told the employee to not answer. The place was full of skimmers and parts. Very good skimmer just terrible customer service.

Yeah I could probably repair it enough that it will work just fine. I'm hoping to figure out how to make them since this seems like a really simple skimmer design to replicate.

Any idea what the youtube video was? Was is for this kind of skimmer?


I see so many people saying that they had great customer service... wonder what happened? I was trying to get ahold of them and finally searched the business records to find that it was dissolved last month.

Just look through the aquac ev. I broke mine and super glued it. Luckily i was able to buy a spare. I would look for some plastic that could be press fit heated up and molded.

Too bad. They had a good twenty year run. People want whatever the latest contraption contrived is. Equipment that just works and hasn't changed or come out with a new model every year seem to always suffer this fate.
