Re: Sump
Well RTR mentioned it here viewtopic.php?f=23&t=28576bertie 83 wrote:I believe powerheads are for circulation only. A more sturdy pump is needed for this application. Someone more informed will chime in soon I am sure. Rtr mentioned about something like this in a recent post, can't remember exactly what was said though.
Its something that I am using now.. but there will be shortcomings as pointed out by RTR.. just an idea but so far, Hasn't fail me yet.... touch wood..
I am not a Troll, I am just pissed..!
