MTC HSA 250 skimmer findings.....

Hi

Am about to purchase one of these skimmers, any owners prepared to give any feedback on noise levels from the venturi / air inlet? That's if there is any noise......

I had one years ago (though it appears unchanged) and the beckett was no noisier than a typical needle wheel venturi skimmer. It's easy enough to make a muffler, or just run the airline outside.
