The air does not reach the impeller and there will be no bubble every time I restart the skimmer after maintenance (cleaning the collection cup).

I had to "prime the skimmer" by blowing into the air intake tube for a few seconds before bubbles start to appear.

I have been doing this every time I restart the skimmer. I did not have this issue when it was new. Is this normal?

Does anyone have the same problem?

BTW, I am using Skimz SM121.
