yes harvey that is the question I'm waiting for. If you have 2 liens going into one tee and they have the same diameter well you will have a build up you might say. it will slow down instead of speeding up..

the drains are plumbed INDEVIDUALY with 1" pipe.

and

Quote:

there are 2 overflows and each are plumbed sepretley

which means there is 2 1" pipes draining into my overflow.... and Mike, there is about 2" from the egg crating to were the water goes IN for the drain..... please let me know if you need me to be more thorough.

also, there is a lot of 90 deg. angles in the drain that my dad swaped out for 45s last night which gave it more of a slope
