We are an experienced pool builder but need some help in design. In our area, people just use the skimmer for the suction with no bottom drains.
In yards with trees, the skimmer basket needs to be emptied often, sometimes 2 times a day. We fear some people may be starving the pump.
Over the years, I have seen photos of people teeing side wall suctions to the skimmer (similar suctions that we use on waterfall secondary pumps).
Have you ever done this? What design would you recommend??
Thanks for your help,
Brad
