So, I finished my sump.. I'll post a pic here tomorrow..
Big question:
How do you get the water flow calibrated? It's kicking my butt right now..
I put ball valves on both lines to maximize control, but I just can't find a happy medium.. Getting the send and return flow rate matched up seems impossible.. I can get it extrememly close, but it still creeps ahead in either direction: Either too fast on the return, emptying the sump or too fast on the send side, emptying the overflow box.. That doesn't really matter, since I have it configured to not lose siphon, but it sure gets noisy..
Not to mention it fills the sump above the final baffle, defeating the purpose altogether!
Is it possible I have too much water in the system, or not enough?
Any help would be great...
