Skimmer use during cycle?

[PSU4ME]

Quick question - should I use my skimmer during the cycle or will it prolong the cycle?

Pros?
Cons?

Thanks!

I shut off mine during cycle, I think you will prolong cycle period if you use the skimmer.

Thanks......looks like the Tunze 9002 will have to wait a bit to tear into the new 28.

Thanks!
