Herbie style overflow

[Chad]

Hmm, I obviously misunderstood the concept. I thought the whole idea was to just add a gate valve and dial it back to match the flow of the return pump?

Putting the drain into the bottom of the tank was not something I wanted to do and I am pretty sure I saw examples of people doing it the way I plumbed it as well.

I will drill the hole in the morning and see what happens. I did test it already with it matched and it is dead silent, just when it restarts after a shut down it doesn't start the main drain up.

Oh well... live and learn
