Are these being discontinued??? If so why? I have had my eye on these skimmer for a while now any information would be great.

Thanks
 
Pretty sure the entire dc models have been revamped. I am also waiting to hear if these will have parts available later. I would love to buy one but would be upset if I did amd can't get some parts next year if you know what I mean....
 
Answer to your questions:

Replacement parts will still be available for those through us, so no worries there. The warranty still applies, etc.

As mentioned they're revamping to keep up with other brands that are doing the same. Do not let this scare you away! I've ran the POV DC-1 for a year now and it's the best skimmer I've ever used. Have installed a couple of the other Diablos that are on sale and they're really awesome units. The skimmer game is like cell phones, constantly changing...

Anyone interested in DC skimmers should definitely hop on these great discounts :)

I've received a lot of questions about what will happen once some of these skimmers are retired...

Here is the link to Octopus' list of skimmers that are being retired.

Parts and accessories will still be available for these models after they are
removed from production - CoralVue is AWESOME about continuing to
provide parts for discontinued models for YEARS after the models are
dropped.
