    Input to recirculating skimmer

    Just an idea of was thinking of implementing when I hook my closed loop system. Use a T on the input and output of closed loop pump with a gate valve or ball valve in between connecting across the intake and output. The gate valve would allow part of the output to be returned back to the pump...
