Venturi clogs frequently since dosing kalk

[dtr10188]

Since I’ve started dosing kalk the Venturi valve on my skimmer seems to get clogged about once a month. This seems frequent to me. I am dosing kalk into the chamber with the return pump, after the skimmer. I’m also using an co2 scrubber. Does anyone have any ideas or recommendations? Thanks for any help.

Maybe just add clean venturi opening to your weekly maintenance

What is clogging the venturi? Calcium deposits?

My HOB skimmer Venturi also gets clogged when running kalk. I’m just gonna clean it weekly

Yes.

You are sure? It's not salt creep?
