Just a simple question regarding the airline. My tank is close to my maintenance room where my furnace and water heater are. I have a large 8" pipe that brings in fresh air from the outside into the room. I was thinking I could use a 1" PVC pipe and just put the end of it in this pipe in order to provide fresh air to my skimmer. Any reason why that would not work vs putting it directly outside? I can feel cold air rushing in down this fresh air pipe in the winter, not sure about the summer but it seems like this would be the same as going directly outside. Thanks for the thoughts. My tank is in my basement. PH typically ranges from 7.9-8.1 or so. When I open the house up it goes higher. Thinking if allow fresh air to my skimmer maybe I can keep it from dropping below 8.
