Looking for a replacement pump for the skimmer. Any good replacement pumps.

I got almost 3 years it off this one.

Have you reached out to SCA to see what they recommend?

only one i think would be a match size and flow wise is the sicce sk200

problem is the volute intake would be smaller than the atman the 301 comes with.

you would have to find a uniseal to make it fit. probably not worth the trouble.

you can pick up another atman

The atman is the atman is the same price on there website. I have thought about a new skimmer this works fine just the pump is a little loud compared to some pumps.

thats an atman for ya!

Ran a couple on an NAC6 years ago before BM switched to rock pumps. 1st one cr@pped out after 2 months, but was quiet. The replacement i got was louder than heck, but lasted over a year until i couldn't handle the noise anymore and upgraded.

good luck

I just came across this thread because i am having the exact same issue. I got a replacement from SCA about a month ago and it is back to doing the same thing. It is super loud. At this point Iv'e gone through 2 pumps in 4 months. I am at the point to where I may just get a whole new skimmer so I don't have to keep dealing with it.
