may change up the rest of the tunze equipment, and use another wavemaker and ATO, super disappointed with the skimmer that was DOA, pump motor super tight and wont start without a bump. And the vendor wouldn't just exchange it and put me to support. I have it running now but if the power is interrupted it wont restart. I had to take it apart start the pump put it together and then in while running.
