My skimmer has never "sucked" much. I have a Poolskim that does a much better job. I see things like "skimdoctor" that are supposed to create a vortex and create better flow. I keep my water level on the high side (so solarbreeze rides on coping lip), making skimmer suction is worse.
Any reason something like a vacuum plate on the skimmer wouldn't create a great vortex (if top was slightly under water)? Similar to what skimdoctor does, but much cheaper. Or could add a pipe will slot on side, or cut slot in existing protrusion.
