Is this an older model? Looks like the current model has a slightly different bubble plate. Do you know if there are any other changes?
 
The newest model has a bit different bubble plate and a gate valve on the output line. This would be an easy mod and you'd end up with the same performance for less than half the price. :0)

FYI, I forgot to add that if interested, feel free to contact me at 81zero-8seven5-0001.
 
Great skimmer at a really good price! It is a set it and forget it unit and produces monster skimmate!

I can include some extra barbed fittings if desired. One example shown in pics.
