dsoz Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 can i use two pumps? one intake one return and if i do what options do i have for eliminating overflow? not a good idea, two pumps are probably not exactly the same, and one will have gravity assist, the other will be fighting gravity. THat is a recipe for floods. You can buy overflow boxes, usually for about $50. They are big and ugly. Your best bet is to drain and empty the 34, then drill a hole, and make a spill box or stand-pipe of some kind. dsoz Link to comment
