jbb Posted March 21, 2015 Author Share Posted March 21, 2015 Thinking of running the HOFER on this one Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Wait wait wait, you have three holes drilled and you're using two of them for returns? That's backwards. One should be a full-siphon drain tuned to the return pump's flow and the second drain is the backup and should have a trickle of water going down it, with a Durso or Hofer or whatever you choose.

metrokat Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Are you doing this all in time for dinner Saturday? Not going to happen till you return texts tho Link to comment
jbb Posted March 21, 2015 Author Share Posted March 21, 2015 What the ####. They should know that is backwards. All of their tanks are made this way unless its custom . I guess you could plumb it backwards and run the 3/4" lines as dual drains... Link to comment

Run one of the 3/4" as full-siphon, the 1" as the backup, and then the remaining 3/4" for return. You'll be much happier in the end. Link to comment

jedimasterben Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Not always look at Rogers tank, same configuration Doesn't mean it's best or optimal. I don't really buy the 'you gotta have at least one backup drain in case one is clogged' bullshit as it should never realistically happen, but having the drain be 100% completely and perfectly silent makes all the difference to me.
