Sump overflowing...

[renogaw]

Don't forget, drill a hole above the water line for your return pipe...
but also don't forget to KEEP IT CLEAN!!!
my sump almost overflowed last night...the hole was crudded up enough that the loc-line was sucking water fast down to the sump...

It's also a good idea to put a check valve on the return.

I drill two holes in my return lines. That way if one gets clogged you have a second as back up.
