skimmer doesnt have suction

[pooooool]

Hi everyone! My main drain suction is working but the 2 other skimmers are not really working. last year the one in the deep didnt really work but i managed without it now they are both not suctioning when the filter is on. I tried the filter on recirculating and there is suction!!HELP what can be wrong?

P,

If you have suction at your skimmers, when in recirculate, but not in filter, then most likely your filter is very dirty.

Thanks,
