What is the water output height for the Skimz SM122 external skimmer? I messaged Skimz a long time ago and haven't heard from them.

I had the stand pipe on hand to measure, and it was 8.25" tall to the bottom of the water outlet. The base of the skimmer adds some distance to that, so I would guesstimate around 10 to 11 inches total. I will dig through the returns tomorrow and see if we have one I can measure to get you a better idea.

Well I need it to clear the edge of a 14" sump so no matter what the height I could raise the skimmer by putting something under it.

I've been looking and I haven't been able to find one to measure unfortunately. I think your stand idea will be the best bet because it will likely be too short.
